The M3M Ribbon is a very high quality 11 litre ported speaker using the superb IPL5M magnesium cone bass unit , with its cast chassis, light but very stiff cone and large shielded magnet system, and the excellent high resolution Fountek Cd1.0 Ribbon tweeter (the tweeters are matched specifically for each kit sold ) . This speaker has a ruler flat response extending from 37htz right through to 30khtz.. The M3M has a very sturdy cabinet made from 18 and 22mm MDF , a double flared port, and is internally lined with profiled acoustic foam. The second order crossover uses high quality polypropylene IPL capacitors, High powered inductors and resistors, has provision for bi-wiring, using the gold CP4L connection panels supplied with the plus kit. The M3Ms make superb Hi-Fi Monitors as well as AV speakers. The Bass inductors are the superb IPL Steel Laminate Cored low resistance inductors giving a superior bass quality with these metal units.
The sound quality of this speaker is large scale and very musical providing a clean, clear sound and a smooth but dynamic and detailed presentation with no listener fatigue. There is provision to adjust the treble and the M3Ms can be used as rear (and main) with the AVC3 centre (same units) or with the M3tlm Ribbon (same units) as main speakers in a high quality AV system.
