Synonymous to the Greek God, the Summanis Apollo tells no lies. A true passive monitor at heart and designed from the ground up to provide a transparent sound for the studio environment. The 8 inch Danish woofer provides very low frequency production that is deep and clear, whilst the acclaimed radial tweeter continues the frequency response to well over 20,000Hz.
The Apollo is designed for a flat frequency response, giving you true representation of the music you are listening to. Extended bass is achieved with a rear mounted dual flared port, eliminating any nasty turbulence at high volumes. Banana plugs, or speaker wire down to 12gauge is accepted into the rear terminal cup.
The woofer and tweeter are integrated via the electrical crossover. Built only from high quality audiophile components, the crossover network is designed for full spectrum transparency. A Zobel Network is included in the current model to stabilise woofer impedances that vary with frequency, improving the consistency of the crossover point and adding to the clear crisp sound.
Apollo
Cabinet
Finish: Blackwood real wood veneer. Stained in a variety of colours and varnished with gloss/satin polyurethane.
Construction: 19mm MDF and braced for high rigidity and strength. MDF has a very organic timbre compared to plastic and other materials. -Cabinets are further damped with audio grade matting, reducing standing waves and unwanted internal resonance.
Port: 2” dual flared port. Adds +3dB and extends bass response down to 40Hz. Large diameter and dual flare eliminates port noise.
Terminal: Gold plated for gauge wire or banana plug fitting.
Dimensions: 230(W) x 350(H) x 260(D)
Weight: 9 kg
Transducers
Woofer: High definition series, Denmark designed, high quality speaker driver. Truncated cast aluminum frame, NOMEX cone, 1-1/4” long-throw voice coil, highly efficient at 90.2dB/W/m.
Tweeter: Radial dome tweeter, designed for exceptional off-axis response with high power handling and dual ring radiator diaphragm. They produce a very natural sound with extremely smooth frequency response in excess of 30,000Hz.
Crossover
Inductors: High purity copper air core inductors on both tweeter and woofer. (Jantzen)
Capacitors: Metalized Polypropylene capacitors for audiophile transparency. (Jantzen)
Resistors: Non Inductive resistors.
Internal wire: 14/16AWG OFC or comparable crossover hook up wire is used.
