The voice range is handled exclusively by the midrange driver, which is designed specifically for this purpose. As a result, the S 10 reproduces an incredibly vivid, natural sound picture without distortion or coloring.
The Multi-Resonator Transmission Line system used in Criterion speakers is just such a technology: resembling an organ pipe, it emits very low frequencies with high sound pressure without sacrificing control and accuracy. The design, consisting of numerous struts, gives the cabinet great rigidity. This rigidity prevents harmful resonances of the enclosure and the resulting enclosure noise even before they can occur.
The Symmetrical Directivity Design is used here, similar to that found in the Solitaire S 430 speaker system. Its main feature is a specific directional pattern, which is formed by using two midrange drivers and a magnesium dome tweeter located between them.
The new drivers are the key to the incredible performance of the TALIS S 300. Two of them (2 x 170 mm) work synchronously in the woofer segment and deliver powerful bass without distortion even at the highest levels. With such compact dimensions, the lower limit is stated from 25 Hz. The midrange driver operates in the range from 300 Hz to 2,000 Hz.
The Mag 50 magneto static driver used in the S430 is powered by ten magnets. It offers an amazing combination of energy, high resolution and subtle micro dynamics. And this device is only 5 cm in size.
