 Features: 

  • Wedge Shape Direct On-Axis "Wedge Angle"
    The baffle (front) panel of each cabinet is optimally angled in toward the listener. This serves to widen and improve the stereo image by radiating sound away from room boundaries and at an angle to opposing boundaries.  This also helps reduce the harsh effects of excessive reflections and standing waves in the room.  Direct on-axis radiation toward the listener provides pin-point imaging and detail. Also, nonparallel panels in the cabinet reduce internal standing wave vibrations.

  • Low-Diffraction Baffle Edges
    All D+S cabinets have one-inch radius rounded front edges to help smooth out high frequency ripple caused by sharp edge diffraction.

  • High-Power Drivers Premium High-Power Drivers
    The drivers in all D+S speakers are premium quality components and are flush mounted with a precision routed inset to help eliminate edge diffraction.

  • LEAP™ Optimized High-Power Crossover with EDC™
    Each driver section (woofers, midranges and tweeters) in every D+S speaker is individually measured and optimized for a smooth blended response using the latest industry standard computer software.  All crossovers employ premium grade air-core inductors and metallized polypropylene capacitors for all driver sections.  See more about this below.

  • Flared Port Computer Tuned Flared Venting
    Bass is greatly extended to achieve that deep realism we crave.  Computer controlled microphones are used to tune the port for optimal flatness.  The bass of all our speakers is never muddy or "boom-boxy".  Also, we use flared ends on the port to elimate wind noise and smooth out the bass pressure wave.

  • 14-Gauge Oxygen-Free Pure Copper Wiring
    We use only the finest heavy gauge OFC wiring in all our speakers.

  • Biamp Terminals Biampable Gold-Plated Binding Post Terminals
    D+S speakers accept dual or separate banana plugs, pin or spade connectors, or twisted bare wire up to four-gauge thick.  By removing the short coupling wires, the woofers may be powered separately from the midranges and tweeters (biamping).

  • Solid MDF Construction
    All D+S cabinets are built from heavy one-inch thick non-resonant MDF, not cheap 3/4" particle board.  Custom cut "Glue Block" bracing is applied to the full length of all internal joints and seams.  Plus our multi-woofer and subwoofer cabinets employ shelf bracing between each woofer to further reduce vibration.  A stiffer cabinet could only be made from poured concrete!

  • Hand Stained and Clear-Coated Real Wood Finish
    We offer a large variety of premium real wood finishes such as White-Wash Oak, Golden Oak, Red Oak, Dark Oak, American Walnut, Black Walnut, Traditional Mahogany, Red Mahogany, Light Cherry and more.

 Advanced Computer-Optimized Crossovers: 

      The goal of the loudspeaker designer is to extract the optimum performance from each driver while blending all drivers to achieve a flat frequency response and a stable, linear phase and impedance of the system.  Not only are a driver's frequency response and impedance determined by its construction and materials but they are also greatly affected by its "environment".  The internal volume of the enclosure, the shape and dimensions of a tuned port (if any), the amount of insulation, the mounting of the drivers, the shape and dimensions of the cabinet baffle, the shape and dimensions of the driver's frame, the location and orientation of the drivers on the baffle, the thickness and resonant properties of the cabinet, etc., are all environmental conditions affecting overall response and performance.  And this doesn't even include all the room acoustics.  The list goes on ...

      There are too many variables affecting the overall response of the system to mathematically predict end results from theoretical data.  There is only one way to account for ALL variables and that is to measure the frequency response (SPL) and impedance of each driver section when they are installed in their final environment, then blend the sections together using advanced computer optimizing software.  The "final environment" should even include appropriate placement of the speaker in the intended listening room, but we can't quite get that close to each customer on a production basis.  So we settle for anechoic measurements.
