Our midrange driver is where classic meets progression. Together with SEAS we combined a classic hand-coated paper cone on a 26mm titanium former and an inverted surround with a modern low-distortion motor system.The result is a low distortion midrange with a beautiful tone.
Just like our larger horn-based models, FRIGG 02 also has a directivity-controlled tweeter. The patented DXT-technology provides directivity control despite being a compact waveguide. This technology provides an even sound characteristic within the working area of the waveguide.
Coupled to the DXT waveguide is a special dome tweeter developed in cooperation with Norwegian company SEAS. The dome is a unique Metamodal Spread Tow Carbon Fiber design. Also called TPCD. The unique feature of our TPCD-dome is that it’s developed to combat modal behaviors in the dome.
To match the midrange driver, again we combined our vision with the expertise of the engineers at SEAS. A matching hand-coated cone on a 52mm titanium former and a large motor structure secure the deep and dynamic bass response.
Some say the crossover is the heart of the speaker, others say it’s the brain. We say that it’s both.
A crossover has two main functions. One is to control the acoustic response of the drivers, the other, which of course is linked very closely to the first, is to give the speaker its character.
We design the crossovers to get the best performance out of every speaker. Many designers claim that one topology is superior to another, which in our opinion is not only false, but it limits the possibilities to get the best sound out of a specific design.
For FRIGG 02 we ended up with a hybrid low order crossover. This crossover is a strong contributor to the coherent sound as well as the lively sensation of almost “being there”.
The crossover was designed with the help of modern measurement and simulation tools with numerous listening sessions during the process. FRIGG 02 is designed to work in real-world listening environments, not to just measure well in controlled environments.
The crossover uses very high-quality parts
