Aequo Audio has announced the release of two floor-standing speaker models - Aequo Audio Ensium and Adamantis. Both speaker systems use a fundamentally new nanotechnology-based case material developed by the company itself. This nanocomposite converts vibrations into heat, almost completely eliminating case resonances in the range from 1 Hz to 100 kHz. Unlike traditional case materials, this polymer has virtually zero "sound footprint" and provides 10 times more damping than aluminum!
Both speaker systems have a three-way circuit. The Aequo Audio Adamantis model is passive, while the Ensium is active with a 500 W amplifier and an analog sound correction system for the acoustic features of the listening room, ARPEC. Both models have a complex shape, acoustically optimized according to the design philosophy of "form follows function." This was made possible by the nano-material casting technology from which the enclosures are made. Despite weighing over 100 kg each, the speakers have a surprisingly large internal volume relative to their external dimensions.
The recommended retail price of the Aequo Audio Ensium active loudspeakers in Europe is 44,900 euros per pair of speakers. The price of the passive Adamantis model will be announced later.
