Cabinet design is unconventional and allowed the designer
esthetic freedom whilst in fact increasing structural
strength and reducing unwanted resonances from the enclosure.
Earo believes that it is an advantage to have the lowest
frequencies generated by a single base unit for the
low end rather than having this produced by the main
speakers. The reason for this is that dispersion of
the base is more uniform in the room and not subject
to the phase nulls and highs that two drivers produces.
Also, with an active DSP automatically correcting room
nodes in both frequency and time domain, performance
is optimized.
Digital
signal processing also deals with the mixing and
separation of audio to the sub and remaining sid speakers.
Finish may be ordered in
standard configuration of Piano black, Chinese red, Ferrari Red,
Yves Klein Blue and Pearl Blizzard White. All
in high gloss hand rubbed lacquer. Alternatively custom
order of veneering is available with a choice of light
or dark veneers.
Application
E-Low will play down to 15 Hz and
provide full sound pressure level at this frequency.
What is unusual is that E-low achieves this is using
non-resonant technology. To reach these goals digital
phase linear filters and high powered D-class
amplification processes are employed. All
digital filter processing in the DSP
uses 56bit resolution.
E-Low may be used with any Earo speaker to reach the
rocking bottom of all recordings. We have included our
linear phase active crossover allowing you to connect
E-low to any hifi system or home theater, greatly extending
the experience.
Placement
E-Low is a bass driver and these normally operate from
100Hz and below. At these frequencies the directivity
is not apparent by the human ear why large freedom of
placement exists. However, placement shall be made in
order to avoid exciting the room nodes and forco-timing
with the main system.
Corner placement, although it will increase bass response,
is not recommended.
An elegantly designed industry standard VESA fixture
is available allowing the E-Low to function as a stand
for an LCD or Plasma flat screen television. Cables
are hidden from view by being routed inside the fixture.
