Re: Latus1

Nice design! It's a lot like a small-baffle version of some of the old infinity kappas- small mid, planar tweeter used high, small box sub.

I bet they love a big amp

Yes they like power, they are around 83 dB per 2.83v as I recall. In Fort Wayne we had them walking sideways nearly off the speaker stand.

Re: Latus1

I absolutely love these. Wish I could have heard them. I think that tweeter is a very high value driver, very pleasant sounding - much better than the price may indicate. I have one in my center channel and am currently modeling some small 2-way bookshelf speakers with them as well. Very nice and congrats on the second place!

Re: Latus1

Great writeup.

very deceptive build - from the outside it looks so simple!

Re: Latus1

I had the pleasure of hearing these at Iowa. A really smooth sounding speaker with impressive bass output for their size.

That write up is easy to follow, a big thumbs up! Big bass and good sound!
