IPL S3TLM Magnesium Ribbon TRANSMISSION LINE
The S3tlm Ribbon is a compact transmission line using the superb new IPL/6/M with its ultra light but stiff magnesium cone, smooth response, sturdy cast chassis , and large shielded magnet assembly, and one of the best Ribbon tweeters; the Fountek Neo CD3 ribbon which is a very high quality unit with high strength NEODYMIUM magnets, ensuring a fast and transparent sound. The unit has a very low resonant frequency of 400 hz allowing a low crossover point of 2.8khz .The advantage of the ribbon is a 10 x better mass to magnetic flux ratio over most dome tweeters. Both Tweeters are matched for response and sensitivity.
The S3tlm Ribbon is a further development of the S3tlm giving; the same large scale, open sound quality, a very natural midrange, and an extended bass. The treble has an ambience and sense of realism which is seldom heard with conventional tweeters. All this is obtained without harshness ensuring that this is a speaker you can listen to all day without fatigue. The SPL response is extremely smooth and extended giving a well balanced and natural sound . The bi-wired crossover is 2nd order at 2.8 khz, and incorporates high quality IPL PP capacitors (where necessary), New IPL top quality Steel laminate IPL bass inductors, and air cored treble inductors, and high power resistors. Line damping is with IPL"s profiled acoustic foam, and Long Haired wool. for fine tuning. The total kit includes a very solid flat-pack cabinet (with 21 x 18mm MDF panels per speaker), including internal baffles, angled deflectors ,a shaped grille frame, and a separate spiked boxed stand which is filled with dry sand. Plus and Total Kits now include the CP4L Gold Terminal Crossover panel
