High-end 1-way bass reflex speaker

HECO combines cutting-edge technology with classic concepts in its exceptional Direkt Einklang speaker. Just a single (!) 210 mm chassis is used in the high-end 1-way system of the Direkt series. As a point sound source, it is characterized by an above-average level of spatiality, optimum efficiency and maximum precision. As only one voice coil is required for a single chassis and the moving mass is kept low, the speaker can be connected to a tube amplifier from an output of 5 watts without any problems, while it also works perfectly with larger transistor amplifiers. As as is customary for HECO, it has once again used the high-tech Klippel measuring system to linearize and optimize the entire structure, which includes the extremely lightweight HECO kraft paper cone, the specially designed tweeter cone and the dual-ferrite drive system. The exclusive components are housed in the elaborately designed flat MDF housing, which features a wide baffle and elegant silk matte lacquer finish.
