ESD Series
The world is absolutely full of ‘passive speakers’ using simple and often inefficient passive networks, with the simple aim of being attached to any amplifier available.
Here at KV2 Audio, following on with the innovative pursuance of excellence, the ESD range encapsulates multiple disciplines, with a time aligned two way passive network in mid hi enclosures, and purpose designed transducers for subwoofers, and all models.
Presenting building block flexibility in full system design and accompanied by electronics specifically designed to obtain superior audio performance, the ESD range offers genuine ease of set up and operation in a wide spectrum of applications.
Overview
Enclosed within Baltic Birch cabinets, the conservative aesthetic presentation and tactile feel create an atmosphere of quality that matches the audio performance of the ESD range.
KV2 Audio has implemented a new Trans-Coil technology that eliminates voice coil inductance, resulting in a flat impedance response above the resonance point.
This technology linearizes acoustic and electrical phase response, reduces harmonic distortion and increases power transfer and transducer speed. The speaker now behaves like a woofer at lower frequencies and like a mid-range at higher frequencies, allowing a seamless transition at the crossover frequency. For the high frequencies our Nitride Titanium compression drivers, using technology developed for Formula One racing, provide the lowest distortion in their class with an exceptionally smooth, accurate, open and extended high frequency response.
Precisely selected amplifier topologies have been designed to deliver power from a dedicated four channel amplifier for perfect control and activation of the new KV2 Audio Passive time aligned network. An exceptionally fast settling time of this amplifier creates a dynamic, super-fast response resulting in extremely clean and smooth sound characteristics at all levels, as well as providing very high feedback rejection.
All control of ESD 2 and 3-way systems is simply defined by utilizing the SAC2 controller.
The ESD6, ESD10and ESD12 can be used as full range solutions or with the ESD1.2, ESD1.5 and ESD1.8 subwoofers.
