The Super 5 Bipole uses Twin front and rear firing 4.5" Proprietary Omega HempCone full-range drivers. These drivers incorporate a very light cone and very strong motor to produce high sensitivity, speed, transparency, and excellent detail with amazing low level resolution. The Super 5 Bipole is also a perfect point-source and is phase correct. Imaging and soundstage are not effected.
By incorporating twin drivers front and rear firing, the Super 5 Bipole is able to reproduce more complex music with more dynamics and low end response than the Super 5 while producing a huge, deep and wide sound-stage. The music signal is shared by the twin drivers which increases sensitivity and lowers distortion. The Super 5 Bipole has dual sets of binding posts which are connected to the drivers individually allowing the Super 5 Bipole to be run in either 4 or 16 ohm impedance. Jumpers and diagram are provided for easy switching between 4 or 16 ohm, Bipole and Dipole, as well as Monopole (front driver only) or Bi-amp.
The Super 5 Bipole is a compact bass reflex speaker, so positioning in your listening room is easy. Due to the rear firing driver, a minimum of 4 feet from the back wall is recommended. We chose to manufacture bass reflex systems as oppose to bass horns because the bass reflex system has tighter more accurate bass that goes just as low or lower than bass horns. Cabinets are more compact and easier to place as well. Bass reflex cabinets have no horn passage directly behind the driver, so damping material can be placed to suppress standing waves and bounce back reflections that cause frequency cancellation and distortion.
