These speakers feature two bass-midrange cells engineered with the proprietary PPBM* technology, optimized to deliver a more extended, linear bass response. Their mechanical design is inspired by the Reference model, ensuring structural integrity and enhanced performance. A 55 cm ribbon tweeter, with its wide bandwidth, delivers exceptional coherence and a natural sound signature.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesigned with no compromises, the DP160 MKII speakers aim to recreate the full intensity of a live concert experience right in your living room.

Through extensive listening, comparison, and experimentation with a wide range of speaker technologies—electrodynamics, high-efficiency models, electrostatics, various ribbon forms, and rigid flat diaphragm speakers—they have gained deep insight into each system's unique strengths. While all these technologies offer undeniable benefits, they firmly believe that isodynamic loudspeakers, also known as magnetostatics, combine the most advantages, providing the most natural and lifelike musical reproduction.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Advantages of Isodynamic Technology\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiffusion over a large area by a plane wave, enabling immersive listening without a sound projection effect.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDipole operation, on both sides of the speakers, to recreate the spatialization of the concert in your listening room.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe use of extremely thin mylar membranes for high speed and no drag effect.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe same type of diaphragm is used from bass to treble; everything operates at the same speed, providing consistency in dynamic behavior across the spectrum.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNo box behind the speaker; there is no \"box sound\" associated with the midrange buzz.

The large section of bipolar magnets, manufactured to specification, is located at the front and rear of the diaphragm. They make it possible to maintain the coil (aluminum tapes) in a constant magnetic field as the membrane moves, thereby ensuring perfectly controlled motion.
