Gladius Speaker Airies Cerat Ultra Hi End Pair Handcrafted Speakers

Available for sale Fabulous Demo pair.

The need
for a relatively sensitive conventional floor stander, lead us to the
design of a not-so-conventional speaker. The Gladius speaker is born.

Using the best possible drivers for the bandwidth intended to operate,
and keeping the overall cabinet volume as down to earth possible, our
3-way creation claims to be among the best direct radiating floor
standers made.

The low
end is delivered by an acoustic suspension loaded 12'' driver. With
ultra light cone of just 55gms and it's 28mm Xmax delivers more tuneful
bass notes than any BR design can reproduce. Using proprietary resistive
bass loading techniques, we managed to keep the total system Q down
with as little internal volume possible, at the same time using a very
light bass driver. With a total Qtc of 0.65 ,we combine optimal
transient ,phase and frequency response.

The woofer's cabin is made form randomly layed wooden layers made from
two variations of plywood ,which differ in density, for breaking-up
vibration modes. The cabin is internally braced,and is coated with a
special polyurethane rubber 15~25mm in thickness, which dampens the
vibrations and making the speaker as acoustically dead as possible.

Our mid-range driver is enclosed in a specially made bullet-shaped structure
made from solid wood ,designed to eliminate diffraction, making the
midrange driver virtually baffle less.

The
critical mid-range band is solely delivered by an 5'' AlNiCo magnet
driver, in the separate bullet-shaped sealed enclosure. Only this ultra
fast driver,(3.5gms Mms ) can be seamlessly be blended with our high
frequency reproducer. Our midrange driver is a highly linear and
extended range driver which can reproduce a frequency range of 100Hz ~
18KHz with very high linearity, and it is used only as an 2,5 octave
driver, keeping the best out of this highest quality reproducer.

The
high and Ultra high frequency band is reproduced by a custom made True
Ribbon tweeter.The ribbon is using an aluminum foil of just 4
milligrams in weight, and an amorphous core transformer. It’s transient
responce is not matched by any tweeter on the market, and it's frequency
range is kept linear up to 100KHz without any breakups, in opposition
to any other conventional tweeter.

The
external crossover uses copper foil inductors and polypropylene
capacitors, and is time domain optimized. The crossover can be factory
custom-configured to perfectly match your listening room.
