Prestigious Two – Monitor DXT Released!

I’ve finished the fine-tuning of the loudspeaker and I’ve published the complete design write-up.

Prestigious Two – Monitor DXT

SEAS U16RCY/P – Measurements

SEAS 27TBCD/GB-DXT – Measurements

I think it turned out to be a very nice modestly priced loudspeaker design. The SEAS DXT tweeter, although not my absolute favorite tweeter is a very interesting concept with great potential and I hope to see more of its kind from SEAS and other loudspeaker driver unit manufacturers.

I’ve tested and used the DXT tweeter in several designs and I think it really shines when used with a LR2 (acoustical) filter topology.

The bass from the small SEAS U16RCY/P is very good and I think the warm mid-range character it reproduces, will appeal to many people.

I also think the cross-over design worked out the way I wanted, with a minimalistic design approach and with very few components. It’s not often a loudspeaker design work out as good as this with a first-order (electrically) filter topology, but both these good drivers can handle it.

This is the last design I publish before the family vacation starts, but stay tuned I have several exciting designs coming soon.

First of all I’m starting the “Sequence Three – Grand Reference” build this summer and parallel to it I will start the work with the “Revelation Two – Monitor MkII”, which will be released with two new different tweeter flavors.

Sequence Three – Grand Reference – Construction!

 

I wish you all a very nice warm and sunny summer! 🙂
