ℹ Product Information
Polished Diamond
Every element of the second generation of the central speaker was rethought, from the drivers to the cabinet and crossover. As a result, the Diamond Center mkII provides an even more faithful and natural rendition of the dialogue layer in a multichannel system. The refreshed cabinet design and new drivers are noticeable at first glance, but changes have also been made to the crossover. It is constructed using only linear components such as air coils and polypropylene capacitors, which improves sound clarity.
Hear dialogues like never before
The woofer, manufactured by Norwegian Seas, has been redesigned by our engineers, and the changes are apparent at first glance. We replaced the dust cap with a phase plug, which provides a more faithful reproduction of the crucial midrange while eliminating the coloration of its higher range caused by resonances in the volume under the cap. A reinforced dual-magnet drive provides even better dynamics and control of the vibration system based on a lightweight, coated cellulose diaphragm and a 1-inch coil wound with aluminium copper wire. In addition, the speaker is made using Spider Ring technology, designed to enhance control over the manufacturing process of high-end products. The tweeter from Danish Scan-Speak has also been updated with a more powerful neodymium magnet system, reduced voice coil mass, and eliminated ferrofluid. It delivers even better detail and microdynamics at the highest frequencies, with greater efficiency and control. Also new is the dual resonance chamber design, which further reduces the primary resonance of the tweeter. An additional advantage of this speaker is reduced nonlinear distortion.
Details that change everything
Compared to its predecessor, the design of the column underwent a gentle facelift. Cabinet, as in other second-generation Diamond series speakers, has a steeper front and back angle. The tweeter’s elegant front, crafted from durable black cellular rubber for extended longevity, not only adds a touch of exclusivity but also minimises sound wave reflections. Natural sheep’s wool and a new, specially selected soundproofing material combination suppress resonances and unwanted standing waves inside the cabinet.
