After a very positive public response to the launch of the VIRGO 25plus+
at the HIGH END 2012 show in Munich and fantastic international test
reports, it is a logical consequence to apply the innovations and
learning curves from the VIRGO 25plus+ to additional REFERENCE models.
Yet this involves much more than simply transferring new technologies
onto another loudspeaker. The design innovations in the AVANTERAplus+
are, for example, to be painstakingly matched to the crossover network,
the drivers, and the cabinetand represent once again the result of
intensive detail work, comprehensive listening tests and the passion of
the AUDIO PHYSIC development team to reproduce music as authentically as
possibletrue to the principle, No loss of fine detail. It's
really the minute details that make the task a challenge. In attempting
to improve a recognised first-class product, AUDIO PHYSIC looks at all
the elements that come together in a loudspeaker. Thus AUDIO PHYSIC
managed to develop loudspeakers that do not display a cosy (wooden)
cabinet sound and, conversely, as a result, once again brought the
performance of the drivers and crossover technology to the fore. This
laid the groundwork for the worldwide unique HHC midrange driver and
tweeter that are already successfully deployed in AVANTERA and other
AUDIO PHYSIC loudspeakers. In taking another decisive step
forward, our developer team made an unbiased assessment of all the
elements of the loudspeaker and in particular, how they interact, paying
special attention to the individual cabinet areas of the speaker. The
requirements and operating conditions vary considerably in the
individual frequency ranges. AUDIO PHYSIC counters the negative
ramifications of bass impulses having an effect on the cabinet with a
mirror-image configuration of woofers in the standard loudspeakers of
the REFERENCE line. The energy impact on the cabinet is virtually
negated by this arrangement, and what's more, the extremely stiff design
of the cabinet dissipates excess energy before it can negatively
influence the sound. In the AVANTERAplus+, there is added reinforcement
in the areas surrounding the woofers using an ultra-stiff ceramic foam
(in the cross-sectional view, Item 1). This enables impulses to be
dispersed even more rapidly. Thanks to the porous structure of the
ceramic foam, the inner volume does not changeand the loudspeakers
are not growing heavier, despite significantly improved cabinet
properties. When playing the middle frequencies, the key focus
was to avoid sound permeability at the midpoint. The percentage of sound
deflected into the interior in each loudspeaker to a certain extent
finds its way out through the cabinet walls. The results is
discolouration. In the AVANTERAplus+, the midrange drivers work not only
on an autonomous cabinet section. In the Plus version, dampening panels
specially-developed for the AVANTERA chassis (cross-sectional view,
Item 2) are fitted on the interior of the cabinet in this area. They are
less stiff than the exterior walls, thereby creating a heterogeneous
structure that has a significant dampening effect on sound permeability.
Thanks to the special structure of the panels, parts of the reflected
sound are not mirrored in a defined angle on the walls, thus further
reducing the influence of sound inside the cabinet. The interplay with
the even higher-quality components of the crossover network
(cross-sectional view, Item 4) leads to a dramatic gain in acoustics. Even
the HHC tweeter benefits from the new development. A new type of link
is used in the signal connector (cross-sectional view, Item 3) at the
interface between the crossover network and driver, which is effective
in suppressing the micro-vibrations that could influence the sensitive
signals. This results in exceptional resolution and an even more
realistic illumination of the acoustic space. It is the tireless
questioning of conventional wisdom and the intensive analysis of the
physical conditions that allow the AVANTERAplus+ to reach a level of
sound reproduction that just a few years ago would have been
inconceivable in this class.
