the
kms290
The
kms290 is the follow up to the
kms190. A bigger eleven litres, the kms290
uses two titanium mid/bass drivers in a D'Appolito configuration,
giving the sound picture greater solidity and authority.
Drivers
The kms290 uses the same well proven titanium
mid/bass drivers used in the kms190, with
cast basket and twin magnet assembly. This has the responsibility of
reproducing the critical part of the frequency spectrum from 60Hz to
over 4kHz.
The tweeter then takes over the upper frequencies using its tioxid dome
(with 20mm voice coil and double magnet assembly), offering an uncoloured,
dynamic listening window through which to view the aural picture.
Cabinet
The reflex cabinet is of MDF construction with internal bracing helping
to control cabinet flexure, and veneered with real wood veneers.
The sculptured front baffle is 40mm thick, its staggered design providing
time alignment, and the sloping edges reducing edge diffraction.
Crossover
A high order crossover at 4.2kHz optimises both on and off axis response.
Components in the crossover network are carefully selected for their
performance: air cored coils, polypropylene capacitors, gold plated
connectors...
Veneer
options
Cherry, maple, walnut, rosenut, light oak.
