Origin Acoustics Ships 2nd Gen Director, LCR Speakers

  • PDF

Origin Acoustics announces the next generation of the popular Director and LCR speaker collections, with Director 3-way models featuring a smaller form factor.

Origin AcousticsThe speakers have a depth reduced to 5cm, allowing them to fit in more ceiling spaces. Output sensitivity is also improved by an average of 3dB, reducing power requirements in large multi-room systems. New Ultra-Pivot mids and tweeters reside in a smoother and more secure mechanism, with a precise directional focus of critical mid and high frequencies.

All models continue to feature the X-Wave Surround in the woofers, allowing them to absorb frequencies between 700-1400Hz running up and down the woofer cone. This reduces unwanted distortion and improves driver stability, and the reduced width of the surround increases usable cone area.

The interior of the baffle on the Director collection is fitted with a Variable Depth Absorption Layer (VDAL), a rubberised insert reducing resonance and mid and high frequency reflections. Further tweaks include grilled magnets enclosed in plastic, providing protection from moisture and temperature extremes.

The new models incorporate odd number SKUs (previously even), and consist of the LCR69, LCR67 and LCR65 in the LCR collection. The Director 10-in is now the D109, the 8-in is the D81 and 6-in is the D65.
