Closer Acoustics

The EMS LB7 driver of this model has a resonant frequency of 40 Hz and an operating range extending up to 18 kHz, which allows you not to use a tweeter. Other characteristics of the speaker are also impressive – a quality factor of 0.215, a moving mass of 6.5 g and a sensitivity of 94 dB. Since there is no crossover in the speaker design, the speakers have the same sensitivity.

Each Vigo speaker has a 12-inch EMS LB12 MK II full-range speaker with a paper diffuser. This driver, with a power of up to 40 watts, allows Vigo to demonstrate a sensitivity of 97 dB, which makes acoustics an attractive option for use in lamp settings.

The developers from Closer Acoustics considered several body design options and several sizes. In the end, we settled on a proprietary cabinet with distributed resonance, built according to the same principles as the housings of the Closer Vigo, Adam and Eva speaker systems.

The model uses an ART (Accelerated Ribbon Technology) ribbon tweeter, which raises the upper limit of high frequencies to 35kHz and HexaCone midrange/woofer speakers. Together, they create a "remarkable clean and accurate sound picture," according to the company's press release.

Thanks to the built-in Supravox 215 Signature Bicone full-band driver with a paper membrane without crossover, the speaker provides realistic sound.
