Know before you buy
The spherical enclosure is designed to eliminate internal resonance and diffraction, which are common issues in traditional box-shaped speakers. This shape allows the speaker to produce a much larger soundstage and more precise imaging than its compact size would suggest.
Because of their small 3-inch driver, these speakers have a frequency response starting at 100Hz or 120Hz. While they provide excellent clarity for music and dialogue, you will likely want to pair them with a dedicated subwoofer to capture the full depth of low-end frequencies.
Each speaker comes with an Isolation2 surface mount accessory, which allows you to place the unit on a shelf or tabletop. Additional mounting hardware is available separately if you prefer to wall-mount or ceiling-mount them.
Yes, their compact size and precise imaging make them an excellent choice for home cinema setups. They are particularly effective as surround or height channels, though they can also serve as main speakers in smaller rooms.
These speakers are rated for up to 100 watts of power handling with an 8-ohm impedance. They are compatible with most standard home audio receivers and amplifiers, making them easy to integrate into existing systems.
The patented S2 fill technology is an internal treatment that helps the small driver perform like a much larger speaker. It effectively tricks the driver into 'seeing' a larger internal volume, which helps boost and control low-frequency output.
