MAGNAT TRANSPULS 1500: TERUG NAAR DE JAREN TACHTIG

SINAN KÖKBUGUR | 17 AUGUSTUS 2018 | FOTOGRAFIE FABRIKANT | MAGNAT
Magnat trotseert de hittegolf en de zomervakantie en zal de komende maanden nieuwe producten aankondigen. Een van de nieuwigheden is de Magnat Transpuls 1500, een vloerstaande luidspreker die zo uit de jaren tachtig van de vorige eeuw lijkt te komen. Onder de motorkap bevindt zich wel nieuwe techniek. 

Magnat Transpuls 1500: vloerstaande luidspreker met een retro uiterlijk

Fans van het Duitse merk Magnat kennen de naam Transpuls uit de jaren tachtig van de vorige eeuw. De ingenieuze Transpuls MP-X 101, uitgerust met een plasma-tweeter, verscheen toen op de markt. Met de nieuwe Transpuls 1500 verschijnt nu een indrukwekkende luidspreker, die ook kan scoren met zeer interessante hoogfrequente technologie, aldus Magnat.

Een dubbele compressiehoorn met twee 25 millimeter tweeters biedt uitstekende dynamiek en indrukwekkende transparantie in het hoog. Een middentoner met een diameter van 17 centimeter en een woofer van maar liefst 38 centimeter completeren de technische kenmerken van de klassieke drieweg box. Met een gevoeligheid van 95 dB en een maximale piekbelastbaarheid van 500 Watt zal de luisteraar niet snel tekort komen.

De brute technologie is geplaatst in een vloerstaande behuizing, die visueel de brug vormt tussen verleden en heden. Precies een meter hoog en 51centimeter breed is de Transpuls 1500 visueel al heel ver weg van de tegenwoordig zo populaire slanke kolommen. De statige verschijning van het oppervlak in donkerhouten afwerking en afneembare stoffen rooster maken het retro design nog opvallender. Een discreet voetstuk met een massief metalen logo ontkoppelt optisch de Transpuls 1500 van de vloer. Dit alles weegt een indrukwekkende 37 kilogram per luidspreker. Tja, stabiliteit vereist uiteindelijk gewicht.

Het frequentiebereik van de Transpuls 1500 loopt van 16 Hz tot 35 kHz. De crossover frequenties liggen op 920 Hz en 4.800 Hz. Het luidsprekerfront is afneembaar.

Magnat Transpuls 1500: prijs en leveringsinformatie

De Magnat Transpuls 1500 is vanaf begin oktober verkrijgbaar. De prijs is net geen 500 euro per stuk.

Cinema Ultra AEH 400-ATM

WITH DEFINED DISPERSION CHARACTERISTICS FOR PERFECT DOLBY ATMOS SURROUND SOUND

  • Extends a home cinema system to include the third dimension for a perfect surround sound experience
  • Compacter, efficient add-on speaker with a large number of application options
  • High-performance coaxial driver with 13 cm woofer and 25 mm dome tweeter
  • Can be used as a Dolby Atmos-certified add-on speaker on LCR 100-THX or as an overhead speaker on the wall or ceiling
  • Switchable crossover for optimum sound with any application

Dolby Atmos-certified sound for home cinema

Dolby also imposes extremely strict requirements to ensure that the demanding multi-channel procedure can generate perfect reproduction. The dispersion characteristics and position of the add-on loudspeakers are important. A subwoofer with an integrated tweeter, a so-called coaxial driver, is the best option here. The Cinema Ultra AEH 400-ATM is a coax with a 13 cm bass plus 25 mm tweeter cone and is a perfect fit, in terms of both external appearance and installation depth, on top of an LCR 100-THX – which is also where it should be according to the Dolby guidelines. For those cases where home cinema fans prefer to mount the excellent sounding AEH 400-ATM on the wall or ceiling, we have, instead of the frequency response optimised for ceiling reflection as stipulated by Dolby, included a second crossover for linear reproduction which can be activated via a toggle switch.

Cinema Ultra RD 200-THX

HIGH POWER PERFORMANCE WITH GREAT SPATIAL REPRESENTATION

  • Outstanding surround sound in cinema quality thanks to the dipole design
  • Outstanding surround sound in cinema quality thanks to the dipole design
  • Two high-performance 42 mm dome tweeters in dipole configuration for authentic surround sound
  • Extremely powerful 17 cm woofer for punchy, dynamic surround sound reproduction
  • Flat trapezoid cabinet for practical wall mounting

THX Ultra 2-certified dipole speaker for authentic cinema sound

One of the 42 mm tweeter cones is located on each sloping side at the centre of the powerful 17 cm subwoofers: The Cinema Ultra RD 200-THX follows the ideal structure of classic dipole speakers. The two tweeters are – as stipulated by THX® – connected together with reversed polarity to produce a diffuse, very three-dimensional soundscape. Because our cone operates in an extremely wide band, the Cinema Ultra RD 200-THX creates this desired diffuse sound field from as low as 1500 hertz. Despite its small size and moderate overall depth of just 16 centimetres, the effect speaker is capable of impressive sound levels – an important factor for the best cinema sound. And optimum installation is also child´s play thanks to the large number of wall-mounting options, including VESA brackets.

Cinema Ultra LCR 100-THX

HORIZONTAL OR VERTICAL: THE BEST THX FRONT LOUDSPEAKER OF ITS CLASS

  • Perfection for home cinema enthusiasts thanks to THX Ultra 2 certificationq
  • The only front speaker in the world with THX Ultra 2 certification for both horizontal and vertical operation
  • Extremely large 42 mm high-performance dome tweeter with a wave guide front panel for ideal dispersion characteristics
  • Two exceptionally powerful 17 cm woofers for maximum dynamics, precision and performance
  • Extremely sturdy MDF cabinet with low-resonance 30 mm baffle

HX Ultra 2-certified 2-way front loudspeaker for perfect home cinema

Never before in the history of THX®: Despite the strict requirements regarding dispersion characteristics, the LCR 100-THX was granted the coveted THX Ultra2™ certification for both horizontal and upright operation. Two 17 cm subwoofers as well as the large tweeter cone ensure distortion-free levels up to beyond 110 decibels as well as outstanding purity of sound. The 42 mm tweeter cone runs in an optimally linear way from 1,500 – 27,500 hertz thanks to the installed horn (Waveguide) and sound distribution lens. This helps the LCR 100-THX to achieve a level of efficiency far in excess of 90 decibels. In other words: Even smaller AV receivers make it possible to experience a great cinema feeling with Cinema Ultra. The enclosure of the LCR 100-THX is flat and is perfectly suitable for unobtrusive wall mounting via wall brackets and VESA fittings.

HIGH-END 3.5-WAY BASS REFLEX LOUDSPEAKER FROM THE “SIGNATURE” REFERENCE SERIES

High-end stereo loudspeaker in the “Signature” reference class

Reference quality and uncompromising hi-fi: The new Signature 1100 range from Magnat gets audiophile hearts beating faster. Handpicked components, unique Magnat technologies as well as a meticulous, elaborate development process guarantee unrivalled quality in the loudspeakers of the new “Signature” reference class. The 1100 range redefines the term “high end” by exhausting all of these virtues to the limit and, in doing so, creating an unforgettable sound experience.

TOP-CLASS SUBWOOFER AND WOOFER

Only the best Magnat subwoofers and woofers are used in the Signature 1100 range. Thanks to the special ceramic-aluminium sandwich material mix, the membranes combine optimum internal damping and maximum rigidity. In addition, the “Controlled Flexing Cone” membrane geometry is also applied here: This controls the emission of bending waves in the upper mid-tone range. Generously ventilated aluminium die-cast baskets avoid compression effects and air turbulences. Used for the drive are distortion-optimized magnet systems with inductivity control rings and stray field optimization. The result of this exquisite collection of top technology: Reproduction of music and other audio content that meets even the very highest hi-fi demands.

HI-RES AUDIO THANKS TO SUPER-TWEETERS

Used in the treble range of the Signature 1100 range are two harmonized fmax Signature tweeters together. This newly developed tweeter module is made up of a 30 mm dome tweeter with coupling volume, long-excursion drive and wide surround for particularly low coupling to the mid-tone range, as well as an additional 20 mm super-tweeter. The latter provides for harmonious omnidirectional sound distribution and treble reproduction up to 55,000 Hz! This means that the Signature 1100 speakers meet the strict requirements for High-Res audio certification. This quality label guarantees a huge frequency range for the playback of audio tracks and, with it, an even more complete, highly precise and fine soundscape.

HIGHEST QUALITY COMPONENTS METICULOUSLY ARRANGED

All the components of the Signature 1100 loudspeakers have been carefully selected, arranged and tuned in a time-consuming process. The chassis alone have undergone numerous measurements, always with the help of the laser-assisted Klippel measuring system in order to achieve absolute perfection. The Magnat development engineers have taken the same care to devote themselves to each individual component so as to find the optimum combination. The crossover relies on Magnat´s finely tuned, phase and amplitude optimized APOC topology with audiophile coils and PP capacitors. The high-quality internal wiring and the large connection panel with sturdy and encapsulated terminals guarantee reliable contact for large gauge high-quality cables. An option for bi-wiring/bi-amping is also provided. Cable bridges are pre-installed for single-amping operation.

MOST STYLISH DESIGN IN BLACK OR WHITE

The enclosure of the Signature 1100 loudspeakers also meets the highest demands – both visually and acoustically: The sturdily constructed and multiple braced MDF body is absolutely resonance-free, assisting the reproduction qualities of the chassis. With their timeless silk-matt lacquer finish, the stylish loudspeakers enrich any surroundings, with their outstanding qualities immediately noticeable, also visually. This impression is underlined by the aluminium cover plate with its brushed surface and the milled-in model name. A removable front grille with invisible magnetic fastening, the solid aluminium foot supports and the height adjustable solid metal spikes emphasize the extraordinary, high quality standards of these loudpeakers.

The Magnat 1100 range was specially developed for audiophile hi-fi fans with the very highest demands. The elaborate development and coordination, the carefully selected components, unique Magnat technologies as well as the Hi-Res Audio certification ensure an incomparable sound experience.
