Stand-mount
loudspeaker system
Product
Summary
The DM2 MK2
is a three-driver loudspeaker system of 47 litres capacity. It is a
free-standing design, for use with B&W purpose-made accessories but will
also incorporate well into existing furniture.
The DM2 MK2
offers a wide horizontal dispersion and excellent vertical dispersion within a
listening window of approximately 10° in the vertical plane and 40° in the
horizontal.
To take
maximum advantage of this of this important design feature, the loudspeaker
must be mounted vertically and located at the correct listening height or
angled slightly to project the
window in an
upward direction.
The pedestal
stand or angled plinth caters for these two alternatives. Technical highlights
The bass
driver is housed in a critically vented enclosure and has a crossover point of
400 Hz where the vent tuning is so designed to extend the low frequency half
point to 45Hz.
The mid band
frequencies are handled by a 100mm unit housed in a separate enclosure –
critically damped with long-haired natural wool.
Frequencies
above 3kHz are handled by a 25mm multi-filament weave polyester dome unit,
critically damped with PVA compounds
