#1 WHY OVAL SHAPED ENCLOSURE?
Shape of the enclosure has a vital role in the performance of the loudspeaker. Moving of speakers causes sound waves with very complex mixture in terms of frequency, amplitude, phase etc. If the shape is rectangular with parallel walls at certain frequencies two bad things may happen: the walls will start to vibrate due to interference and they will act as additional speakers, but without control. So the general sound will be unpredictable mix of the sound caused by the speakers and enclosure’s walls. Second: standing waves will occur inside the cabinet which will raise enormously certain frequencies and will defeat other. So, why most of the loudspeakers have a shape like kitchen cabinets? Because it’s easy and cheap to do and many loudspeakers manufacturers do not manufacture the enclosures indeed but over source them to cabinets manufacturers. We decided to go to the difficult way: we chose a shape which prevents both a.m. phenomenon. This shape is oval.
#2 WHAT IS “LIQUID MARBLE” AND WHY?
It is our formulated compound we cast in factory. It consists of marble powder, polyester resin and additives. The result is material which is very near to natural marble -
# 3 WHY HANGED UNDER THE CEILING?
We designed Sputnik 12S to deliver massive bass without to be necessary to stand on the floor. Do you like cables on the floor?
