About The Aesthetics
Of Sound
Just as serious
listeners will strive for aural perfection, so Heco have added the dimension of
visual perfection. This creates a harmonious product.
Heco is standing at
the crossroads of science, technology and art.. The aim is demanding - to
achieve the perfect, neutral reproduction of sound and to present it in a
high-class design.
This has been a
constant channenge; requiring knowledge, experience and creativity.
Heco has been
building loudspeakers for many years and we have now come near to the ideal,
both in aesthetics and in sound. A highly qualified staff along with advanced
manufacturing procedures and innovative technology has been needed to achieve
this. The result - a sound performance which equals the joy of art - today and
tomorrow.
Integrated Subwoofer
System ISS
Heco's new ISS
technology skillfully blends and integrates an entire subwoofer system into
each loudspeaker it incorporates a totally separte acoustic volume chamber
within the cabinet and steep low-pass filtering for the subwoofer signal (18
dB/octave slope to 24 dB/octave slope according to model) with decoupling
between 150 Hz and 250 Hz. All Superior models 9excepting the Superior 620) and
the Interior models 330 S, 430 S, and 535 s can therefore be considered as "cum basso continuo system" .
The driver itself is suspended in a rigid casting of solid aluminium with a
polypropylene cone.
Wide Bandwidth
Midrange
When you listen to
music the most critical area is the midrange, the frequencies between 300 and
3000 Hz. If this area is not correct, even the best woofers and tweeters can
not save the sound.
Heco research has
developed a new technology to reproduce this crucial region of music a new
midrange driver which covers this entire range alone - without having to cross
over to the woofer or tweeter
This design produces
absolutely perfect phase coherency throughout the region. You can hear the
result; smooth, clear natural voices and instruments.
Aluminium-manganese
dome tweeter
Heco use their
finest metal dome tweeters in the "Superior" and "Interior"
models. Developed and manufactured by Heco, these drivers have exce[tional
frequency response and power handling as well as a wide dispersion. They ensure
smooth upper frequencies.
