The ModalAkustik MusikBoxx offers excellent sound quality resulting from the high-quality materials and components as well as the sophisticated design. The extraordinary appearance also makes
listening to music a visual pleasure.
Features:
Dipol AMT-Tweeter from Mundorf:
- Very light cone for precise reproduction and maximum detail
- Dipole design ensures airiness, plasticity and a large spatial impression, the speakers “disappear” acoustically
- The tweeter radiates horizontally broadly but less vertically, so that reflections from the floor and ceiling are minimized
- Due to its top-mounted design it is optimally decoupled from the woofer volume
Accuton bass-midrange driver made of ceramic from Thiel & Partner:
- Due to the particularly hard material cone deformation is minimized, enabling high precision
Cabinet:
- The cabinet consists of acrylic ribs which are braced with stainless steel threaded rods. Acrylic has a high level of internal damping
- A longitudinal brace presses the bass-midrange driver evenly against the baffle
- The longitudinal brace also stabilizes the rear panel and tensions the cabinet
- This creates an oppositely braced cabinet, which offers a high vibration tolerance and therefore results in a particularly “crisp” reproduction. We call this principle Push Push Layered
Skeleton Enclosure PP-LSE
- The enclosure is closed (no bass reflex) to enable optimum impulse reproduction. This results in a particularly crisp and precise bass response
- The absorption material is arranged as a roll around the longitudinal brace, i.e. in the middle of the enclosure, where it can achieve the best effect. It also calms the cabling, which is
routed through the material, and protects it from microphonics
- The unevenly shaped baffles for the tweeter and woofer distribute edge reflections, making them less disruptive in action
- High-quality terminals from German specialist WBT
Crossover:
- The crossover is housed in an external enclosure and is therefore optimally protected against vibrations (microphonics). For example, capacitors tend to “sing” if they are in the speaker
cabinet and are not sufficiently protected
- The crossover is freely wired (i.e. not board-based) and hand-soldered
- By outsourcing to an external housing, larger components can be used that would otherwise have been difficult to fit into the speaker housing. This allowed the best components to be used,
regardless of size
- Fully equipped with WBT terminals
Activation:
- Separate terminals for the tweeter and bass-midrange driver make it easy to activate the MusikBoxx using DSPs. In contrast to permanently installed active modules, activation is also easy to
upgrade
- In active mode, you can even combine different power amplifiers for high and low-mid frequencies. Different cables can also be tried out. This opens up further possibilities for fine-tuning
the sound, if desired
Stand:
- The stand has a three-layer acrylic top plate
- Tripod for tilt-free positioning
- Lightweight design with little contact surface for sound waves
- Resonance-optimized design with asymmetrical bracing
- Interchangeable feet for any floor covering: both spikes and absorber feet are included in the scope of delivery
Miscellaneous:
- All three components are manufactured by hand in Germany
- During development, emphasis was placed on a more balanced frequency response, i.e. there is no pronounced emphasis
- Both chassis offer high precision and complement each other perfectly
- Maximum sound pressure level can be increased by high-pass filtering and adding the MusikBass RiPol subwoofer if required
- Extremely flexible, modular concept that can grow with higher demands and thus offers a long service life:
-
- Passive / Active
- Stand-alone operation / support by one or more MusikBass RiPol subwoofers
- Can be expanded into a floorstanding speaker with two MusikBass stacked on top of each other on each side and the MusikBoxx as the “head”
