This aluminum sub-baffle assembly is in turn bolted and bonded onto the enclosure’s 3 inch thick MDF inner baffle. All of the drive units are mounted to the aluminum sub-baffle assembly, which results in a dramatically lower noise floor, as well as greater dynamic articulation and resolution from the drive units themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-section-type=\"fullwidth-element\" data-image-type=\"none\" data-full-height=\"yes\" class=\"eut-section roc-fixed-bg\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"eut-row eut-bookmark fixed\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_column eut-column eut-column-1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"vc_empty_space  roc-empty-space\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"vc_empty_space_inner\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-section-type=\"in-container\" data-image-type=\"none\" data-full-height=\"no\" class=\"eut-section eut-middle-content eut-custom-height roc-21-text-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"eut-row eut-bookmark\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_column eut-column eut-column-1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"eut-element eut-text eut-animated-item eut-fadeIn roc-21-text-col\" data-delay=\"200\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Cygnus’ beryllium tweeter is mounted into a custom, machined aluminum waveguide which improves the acoustic impedance match of the tweeter at the low end of its range, allowing for lower distortion and greater dynamic expression from the tweeter itself, and improved dispersion characteristics at the midrange\/tweeter crossover point. Numerous prototype waveguides were modeled and manufactured using the stereolithography process until the optimum waveguide profile was achieved. The waveguide is precision diamond-machined and then anodized, rendering a beautiful 3-D luster, and providing an ideal mounting surface for the tweeter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-section-type=\"fullwidth-element\" data-image-type=\"none\" data-full-height=\"yes\" class=\"eut-section roc-fixed-bg\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"eut-row eut-bookmark fixed\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_column eut-column eut-column-1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"vc_empty_space  roc-empty-space\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"vc_empty_space_inner\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-section-type=\"in-container\" data-image-type=\"none\" data-full-height=\"no\" class=\"eut-section eut-middle-content eut-custom-height roc-21-text-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"eut-row eut-bookmark\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_column eut-column eut-column-1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"eut-element eut-text eut-animated-item eut-fadeIn roc-21-text-col\" data-delay=\"200\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Cygnus loudspeaker benefits from our latest generation midrange, and uses Rockport’s state-of-the-art, variable section thickness, carbon fiber sandwich composite cone matched to our enormously powerful, ultra-low distortion motor system. With a usable bandwidth of nearly 6 octaves, distortion figures lower than some amplifiers (-60 dB!), as well as linear excursion that rivals many midbass drivers, the midrange reproduction of the Cygnus is groundbreaking. When matched to our new waveguide mounted beryllium tweeter, the Cygnus midrange is extraordinarily resolved, textured, and dynamically engaging, and presents music with a coherency so natural it’s uncanny.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-section-type=\"fullwidth-element\" data-image-type=\"none\" data-full-height=\"yes\" class=\"eut-section roc-fixed-bg\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"eut-bg-wrapper\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-section-type=\"in-container\" data-image-type=\"none\" data-full-height=\"no\" class=\"eut-section eut-middle-content eut-custom-height roc-21-text-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"eut-row eut-bookmark\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_column eut-column eut-column-1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"eut-element eut-text eut-animated-item eut-fadeIn roc-21-text-col\" data-delay=\"200\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGenuine, first octave extension is delivered via two, all new, custom designed and built 10″ carbon fiber\/sandwich composite woofers per channel.
