The new AUER ACOUSTICS Versura V4 acoustic systems are designed according to the 3.5-way principle and use 34 mm beryllium dome tweeters, a 12 cm midrange driver and the 18 cm woofer. But the main bass arsenal here is the side-radiating woofer – the 32 cm driver size allows performs from 20 Hz.
The AUER ACOUSTICS Versura V4 enclosures are made of pressed wood – extremely dense “tankwood” eliminates vibrations and guarantees acoustic tolerance of the cabinets. The speakers are designed according to the closed principle and provide a flat frequency response throughout the entire audible range of the human ear.
Also in the arsenal of AUER ACOUSTICS Versura V4 high-quality crossovers, which can be replaced by a semi-active circuit with DSP and built-in bass amplification at the customer's request.
