Crossover Technology
• Unique short coil/long gap motor systems
dramatically reduce distortion for very clear and open
reproduction.
• Very rigid aluminum diaphragms eliminate resonance
coloration for exceptionally uniform frequency
response.
• Long excursion, long gap motor structures provide
greater output capability for realistically high sound
listening levels.
• Copper is used for magnetic field stability and
reduced voice coil inductance to greatly reduce
distortion from secondary effects.
• Heavy cast chassis, very large magnet assemblies, and
very high quality parts throughout contribute to high
performance.

performance.
• 1-inch thick or multi-layered ply cabinet walls
and extensive internal bracing significantly increase
wall stiffness for much
greater clarity and
spatial performance.
• Front baffle vibrations
excited by driver
motions are greatly
reduced by using baffles
of machined aluminum
or up to 3-inch thick
fiberboard.
• Baffles are angled to
provide proper driver
time performance and
use rounded edges
to greatly reduce
unwanted diffraction
effects.
• Very high precision
custom designed CNC (computer numeric
controlled) machining centers achieve cabinet cut
tolerances of .2 of one millimeter for an exacting fit
and structural integrity.

• Special synthesized first-order crossover systems
are designed to provide phase coherent transitions
between the very wide bandwidth drivers for much
greater realism, especially in the areas of spatial
performance and clarity. Instruments and voices
seem to occupy real space and have a much greater
”live“ quality to them.
• THIEL uses extensive electrical compensation
in the crossovers to correct frequency response
irregularities. This ensures that the exact timbre of
each specific sound is true to the original.
• THIEL’s crossovers use only the highest quality
components. Low distortion polypropylene and
custom-made polystyrene capacitors, and air-core
inductors wound with high purity copper are used for
the lowest distortion.
