The benefits of dipole bass are not
restricted to our own systems but can enhance even the humblest
of main speakers.
The pair
of Trueno 38s cross over electronically at 130Hz to the
main system at 36dB/octave.
Gain matching between the main speakers
and Trueno ensures almost universal compatibility.
TRUENO 38
uses a 380mm aluminium driver. This driver is truly long
throw, with ±23mm Xmax, necessary to move sufficient
air for realistic bass.
A second
stereo amplifier of 100 - 300W RMS is required. The two
Trueno bass units can also be powered from a mono bass amplifier
of 200 - 500W RMS: in the latter configuration, the electronic
crossover sums the bass output.
The graphs speak
for themselves. When comparing with other speakers, note whether
response shown is room or anechoic.
