Studiophile DX4 Features
Woofer - The woofer unit is 4 inches in diameter with a magnetically shielded,
curved cone, high-temperature voice coil and closed cell foam damping. It is
designed to deliver balanced mid- and low- frequency response. The design is
used to react against the input signals accurately and to deliver even minimal
input precisely while minimizing distortion.
Tweeter - By employing a specially developed 1-inch mylar dome with magnetic
shielding, the tweeter can deliver distor
tion-free original sound and offer an
extremely natural response. It minimizes reaction time by using the specially
shaped mylar dome for excellent deliver
y, and also minimizes resonance by
adapting a unique inter

. Also, incorporated into the
tweeter is the OptImage wave guide technology that impr
