Utilizing Accuton Ceramic woofers and the incredible Scan-Speak AirCirc tweeter they offer incredible detail retrieval and imaging matched only by speakers costing much more than their modest price. Their sound is dynamic and spacious with an uncanny neutrality.

Crossovers were designed by Rick Craig of Selah Audio and feature Goertz Copper Foil Inductors, Mundorf Supreme and Silver/Oil capacitors, and Mills resistors.
