The two drivers of the model are covered with large-mesh grills made of acoustically inert metal material. A 2-cm tweeter with a soft silk diaphragm impregnated with a special compound is responsible for the upper case. The midrange/woofer with a diameter of 11 cm has a polymethylpentene diaphragm with a long stroke. A proprietary development of DDD (Diapason Direct Drive) has been implemented, when the signal sent by the amplifier arrives immediately at the woofer, bypassing any filters, and only after that it arrives at the crossover, which contributes to phase uniformity and reduces power loss.

    The main driver of the model is manufactured by Seas according to Diapason specifications and is equipped with a polypropylene transparent diffuser with a diameter of 110 mm. The high-frequency driver is also made by Seas, its 19 mm dome on a wide suspension provides a more uniform radiation pattern and helps to better work out the smallest details of the musical signal. The crossover is mounted on a board of increased thickness, mounted inside the case directly on the acoustic terminals.

    The Diapason Direct Drive system in ADAMANTES V allows you to use a 170mm woofer/midrange driver without a separation filter, which gives a lively and natural sound. The parameter left and right values are measured and selected with a spread of less than 0.1% - the key to accurate localization of sound images.
