of using several smaller capacitors in parallel instead of a single big one,
transparency and musicality were improved.

5.4 Vibration-free Cabinet
The cabinet was designed for aesthetics, but with an obsession to sonic
quality, vibration control, structural strength, and rigidity.
quality, vibration control, structural strength, and rigidity.
The design had to be bounced around our Chief Scientist, a structural
furniture engineer, an interior designer, an architect, and our CEO who
supplied the final “eye” to get the angles right on the cabinets.
Consultants on veneers, glues, and a German consultant on CNC
machining were used in its development.

The cabinet required incredible
precision in manufacturing as the
cabinet is made of complex curves and
subtle angles that need to be joined
seamlessly and perfectly.

For example, there is not a single right-
angled joint in the entire construction! In
order to achieve the optical illusion to
make the cabinet look slimmer than it
actually is, the sides of the cabinet are
sloped 1degree top to bottom, and also

Joints and braces had to be cut precisely at 1degree, 3degree, and
5degree angles.

The result is that the cabinet is not only beautiful, but exceedingly well
damped and vibration-free – contributing to a loudspeaker that is
extremely low in coloration. It uses subtle angles, complex curves, and
contrasting colors to transform a loudspeaker into a beautiful piece of
sculpture or musical instrument.

The structural principle used in the construction is this: when any
loudspeaker is operating, ALL the components of the speaker are set
into vibration to a larger or smaller extent. The goal of the cabinet is to
reduce this vibration to a minimum, distribute it, and damp it so that
there is no energy storage in the cabinet itself. This then eliminates the
boxy coloration that is evident in many loudspeakers.
