Markaudio Sota Tozzi One speakers (pair) New

Tozzi One is a high-end single driver loudspeaker. It incorporates cutting-edge full-range driver engineering with a sub-compact enclosure designed with the latest in industrial design techniques. Its range and bass performance are remarkable for this class of purist miniature loudspeaker. Tozzi One uses a single custom high-performance all-range drive unit, the Sota 5, also designed by Mark Fenlon, it produces exceptional range for a sub-compact speaker. Output stretches from upper bass notes to beyond the upper limit of human hearing. The advanced alloy cone has a very shallow profile, and with the signature Tozzi waveguide, gives excellent dispersion of sound energy into the room. Long-stroke suspension avoids excess compression producing clean, precise and phase-accurate sound. No filter is used; the output of the amplifer goes direct to the driver. Features BUILT FROM THE GROUND UP MarkAudio-SOTA loudspeakers are built from the ground up, including the cabinets, crossovers and speaker drivers. Many manufacturers choose off-the-shelf components that aren’t always a perfect match to their system design targets, MarkAudio-SOTA, purists by engineering standards, build their components to precisely match the specific design characteristics of the speaker systems. ALL-RANGE DRIVER APPROACH MarkAudio-SOTA’s unique all-range approach offers the rich midrange that is typical of a wide-range single speaker design, while providing a full frequency range extending from 90Hz to 25kHz, and the high-impact dynamics of more typical multi-way speakers. Using an advanced 50mm Sota 5 all-range driver, its low mass mixed-alloy cone provides superior transparency and detail. SYMMETRICAL SOUND FIELD MarkAudio-SOTA uses its own symmetrical technology. The dual, wide dispersion, shallow-profile cone drivers replace conventional cone-woofer and dome-tweeter combinations. With their matched dispersion and output characteristics, along with a minimal crossover slope, the two custom-made Sota drivers provide an audibly seamless integration between high and low frequencies. This integration results in a smooth, natural output and soundstage that affords a wider range of seating positions, allowing several people to hear a top quality performance at one time. ADVANCED CABINET ENGINEERING Tozzi One is constructed from three rigid sub-structures. They are made from a composite of Acrylonitrile-Butadiene- Styrene with reinforcing fibres. These can be produced to exceptional tolerances, have a long service life and are cosmetically attractive. The front and central sub-structures are precision aligned and bonded to create a stable primary assembly. The rear panel is then mechanically secured, completing the structure.

Markaudio Sota Tozzi One Self-Assembly Speaker Kit (pair)

Available with or without the Markaudio CHN-50 drivers required to complete the kit.

Tozzi One is a pair of high-end single driver loudspeakers.  Incorporating cutting-edge full-range driver engineering with a sub-compact enclosure designed with the latest in industrial design techniques. Its range and bass performance are remarkable for this class of purist miniature loudspeaker. Presented here in a pair of easy to assemble kits with a difficulty level normally reserved for self assembly items from the likes of Ikea – So simple even your child could do it.

Derived through DFM processes

This MarkAudio loudspeaker kit is the first kit on the market that benefits form DFM (Design For Manufacturing) processes. The first speaker available for the end user that has benefitted from rigorous development to make it easy to build. derived from the Markaudio-Sota Tozzi One, they have been built hundreds of times before in a high pressure factory environment where the deign has been tweaked to allow efficiency of manufacture. You are getting the speaker before the last stage of manufacture where all of the sub assemblies have been completed ready for you. Just take a spanner and screw driver any you will be done in minutes.

Tozzi One kit is designed to use the Markaudio CHN-50 drivers also designed by Mark Fenlon, it produces exceptional range for a sub-compact speaker. Output stretches from upper bass notes to beyond the upper limit of human hearing. The advanced alloy cone has a very shallow profile, and with the signature Tozzi waveguide, gives excellent dispersion of sound energy into the room. Long-stroke suspension avoids excess compression producing clean, precise and phase-accurate sound. No filter is used; the output of the amplifier goes direct to the driver.
