THE PURITY OF A SINGLE DRIVER… WITH A BOOST.

High quality 8″ wide range driver for low & mid frequencies upgraded in house and 1″ compression driver with titanium diaphragm for high frequencies.

MARVEL, a two way design, compact enough to house a back loaded bass horn loading a wide range 8″ driver. Bass horn fires to the floor and it’s build of grade A, 13 layer Baltic birch plywood. Mid frequencies are radiated directly by the cone while the high frequencies are handled by our proprietary epoxy compound tractrix horn.

Crossovers are of 1st order and located on the bottom of the bass horn well away from driver’s magnetic fields with components hard wired for best contact. All internal wiring are custom made of high purity OFC copper with waxed cotton insulation. Brass bracing parts with felt acoustic isolation are used to minimize vibrations transfer on contacts of the horns.

High frequencies horn is located on the side of the bass horn mechanically time aligned for a time coherent result.

User can adjust the level and beaming of the high frequencies horn to fine tune MARVEL to the listening room and position.

“A classical piano recording was faithfully reproduced with excellent note attack, impressive but not piercing treble, and robust, plump bass, all produced within an effortless flow of notes”

“The elegant-looking Tune Audio Marvel (16,000/pair) is a two-way design with a backloaded bass horn driven wide range 8″ driver. It sounded beautiful listening to Vivaldi….”

“The Tune Audio horns have always been a very firm favourite with Linette and I and in the past I’ve considered their room to be the very best sound at Munich High End. This year we had a pair of Marvel (15,800 euros) playing with Trafomatic amplifiers providing the juice. This is a very good partnership and a fab sounding system to my ears.”

Linette Smith & Stuart Smith at HiFi PiG

 

“Exceptionally coherent 2-way horn without any transitional wrinkles between midrange and treble.Very authentic vocal reproduction not just for a horn speaker. Classically trained singers have real bravura moments as can certain singer/songwriters and even the occasional Pop star. The midband is neutral but not cool and in living not oppressive colours without tendency for Baroque excess……”
