| X-over | Each and every AStri product is still hand-made. Craftsmen look after every single detail with extraordinary skill and sensibility. All speakers are made of wood. Domestic beech, walnut or cherry-wood, all long-lasting seasoned woods. Every front panel is obtained from 42 mm thick solid wood, and carved by numerical control machines and special right-handed and left-handed millers which strictly follow the flame direction to avoid any risk of damage to the wood structure. Solid wood is stiffer and provides more damping; a physical and acoustic evidence is signified by the driver total weight and the very clear reproduction of the low and mid-low frequencies. The box is made of multi-layer birch wood, glued with high pressure phenolic glue. Whereas to increase the longitudinal stiffness of the long panels, we opted for an isomorphic wood. The multi-layer wood alternate layers insure the absence of vibrations and don’t affect reproduction. The heavy total weight decreases Fs, driving the vibrations generated by the box to a non-audible frequency range, to ensure a totally unaffected sound. This way, the speaker becomes unique and has the charm, beauty and feature of a work of art. The biggest brands opt for industrial manufacturing, thus losing uniqueness in a market of copies and mass products. |
