Product Details
VIGO
He delivers an extremely coherent scale and image effortlessly presenting the tonal balance that is difficult to resist. Whether you like the full philharmonic orchestra or a string quartet, intimate vocals or piano solos, Vigo will deliver.
If you want to dive into a jazz bar with live music, Vigo will take you there. He stands out of the crowd by his ability to play vividly a very wide array of musical genres. Dynamic and speed are a what he excels at.
One driver able to reproduce a whole critical frequency range enclosed in a box designed to eliminate standing waves and deliver clean bass makes wonders.
He will deliver his best when coupled with a very good tube amplifier. Matched with very well designed SET 300B makes miracles, from the powerful and air cutting bass to the micro vibrations of the violin bow…
Be it the Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring or the Ravel’s Tombeau de Couperin. Put film scores on or electronic music, blues, R’n’B or world music and you’re fine.
When you listen to your favored music in a dark room you will be unable to locate the speakers – sound source disappears… only the music stays
The enclosure
Meticulously designed for full-range drivers to maintain the maximum of the efficiency without adding colors to the sound. Made of premium quality Baltic birch ply with no damping materials at all. The complicated internal construction containing carefully designed channels ensures the enclosure stiffness. The standing waves are virtually eliminated that results in a very clean and fast bass response. No need for using any damping materials behind the drivers preserves the liveliness of the drivers especially in the midrange. Side panels are made of acrylic stone for additional enclosure damping of parasite resonances.
The driver
Vigo uses one of the best full-range drivers in the world, the EMS LB12 (31 cm diameter) designed by French legend Mr. Michel Fertin, who devoted his life to perfecting the sound of the single driver wide band technology. These are handmade in France by Katy Fertin EMS Speaker.
Optional tweeter
Because the LB12 full-range drivers have the upper frequency scaled to almost 16kHz an optional tweeter designed by EMS for this purpose can complement Vigo. It extends the frequency range close to 20kHz allowing for more “air” to be present in the listening experience. Sold separately.
