RAIDHO ACOUSTICS X1.6

The front baffle is made of cast aluminium which is an impressive 20 mm thick. This heavy-duty construction is normally only seen in high-end loudspeakers. This makes it the perfect base to place the Raidho Ribbon Tweeter and the 6.5" Ceramix bass driver.

Raidho X-Series Driver

The technology used in the X-Series driver is not only highly advanced and built in-house in Denmark, it is also a work of art. The result is that the speakers disappear even further from the equation, creating a soundscape with no audible distortion and an all-black background that will bring out the instruments and create a holographic soundstage. Raidho's Ceramix technology starts with a thin aluminium cone and then uses a liquid plasma process and incredibly high voltage to transform the outer layer of metal into aluminium oxide ceramic. It's a slow and expensive process, but the finished cone is a unique natural sandwich, with thin, stiff layers on either side of a "softer" aluminium core, creating a stiffer structure with excellent self-damping. Breaks first come in at an incredible 12.5 kHz. The motor system consists of strong neodymium magnets concentrated around a very open system, allowing driver ventilation with the benefit of cooling the titanium voice coil and eliminating some of the design that usually causes distortion.

The legendary Raidho ribbon tweeter

The proprietary ribbon tweeter is a unique Raidho design. It is completely designed and hand-built in-house in Denmark. To be exact, it is a planar magnetic tweeter due to the tracks in the foil. The foil has a thickness of 11 microns, which means that it has a mass 50 times less compared to a conventional dome tweeter. This is due to the fact that there is no voice coil and the extremely low weight of the foil (20 milligrams). The result is that there is virtually no resonance or distortion, and the break-up point is at an incredible 82 KHz! What you hear is an incredibly clear and natural sound - all the detail in the world, but with no fatigue, no distortion and no colouration!
