Audaphon Athena floorstanding speakers Kit with high-end crossover

Kit with high-end crossover without housing, price per speaker

Athena is a three-way floorstanding loudspeaker with very low distortion. Athena is a bass reflex loudspeaker with chassis from Audaphon and Wavecor. The loudspeaker contains the following chassis: - an air motion transformer (ribbon tweeter) Audaphon AMT 1i - a midrange speaker Wavecor WF182CU13 - a woofer Wavecor WF223BD01 The loudspeaker was developed by David Hahn. The crossover consists of: - a 2nd order high pass (12 dB / octave) for the tweeter. - a band pass consisting of a 2nd order high pass (12 dB / octave) and a 3rd order low pass (18 dB / octave) for the mid-woofer. - a 2nd order low pass (12 dB / octave) for the woofer. The frequency response of the loudspeaker is perfectly linear. The decay spectrum (waterfall diagram) is exemplary without any disturbing resonance. The non-linear distortions at low volumes (85 dB, 1 m) are below 0.6% above 300 Hz and remain below 0.6% in the audible range even at higher levels (95 dB, 1 m). At 85 dB, the non-linear distortions above 700 Hz remain almost consistently below 0.1%
