There are no additional
moving parts like spiders, domes and voice
coils and formers including adhesives –
all of which have thermal limit. Our zero-
store ribbon has no damping, neither is
it enclosed in a sealed chamber, both the
front and the rear of the moving metal strip
are in direct contact with the atmosphere.
What are the audible advantages of ribbon
technology?
Distortion is exceptionally low to almost
zero and not ordinarily audible. This means
that the other components in the audio chain
become the primary sources of signal distortion.
The frequency response is linear and the
upper limits are 100khz, although the human
ear can hear up to 20,000Hz there are super
harmonics called formants of the lower frequencies
that when present gives you the sense of
completeness of the sound. Or put differently,
when absent, the sound feels more hi-fi
and less natural.
