AQ'S FLAGSHIP MODEL - The Passion Loudspeakers are based on 25 years of expert loudspeaker design and the exquisite and highly advanced enclosure designed by industrial design studio Novague. Passion took two years to develop with progressive know how of the preceding Donna series. Cost was no object in the development of the Passion series, which established new absolute reference and impeccable musical delivery. To achieve full range sound AQ Passion is designed as a three-way speaker with finely tuned bass reflex enclosure. Baffle is an asymmetrical shell consisting of a proprietary sandwich laminated wood-fiber material with integrated active system of internal damping BDS. Outstanding Danish Scan-Speak drivers were selected for all three sections, providing impeccable integration.

Features

Tweeter section is highlighted by a 1” Illuminator high frequency driver with a field of six neodymium magnets, forming a symmetrical drive SD-2 with its own acoustic chamber. Positive impact on the directional characteristics of high frequencies is the integrated aluminum phase plug, which also provides heat dissipation. Illuminator has a maximally balanced frequency response up to 45 kHz. The oscillating part is composed with half of the toroid and not a spherical cap, as usual. To reduce the diffraction, a damping rubberized rosette is inserted around the tweeter’s membrane.

The Scan-Speak midrange driver compliments seamlessly the tweeter section. It has a symmetrical drive SD-3, where the magnetic field is generated by neodymium magnet. Sophisticated cone with integrated flat ridges is designed to suppress the standing waves and is attached to linear rubber suspension.

3D sculpted baffle below the midrange features 10” Revelator bass driver that is attached with metric tensile strength bolts. 10" Revelator has advanced carbon fiber reinforced paper cone and has extremely low distortion and high power.

Spatial 3D speaker baffle is one of the key steps to achieving extremely flat phase response. With its proper spatial orientation, the acoustic axis of the loudspeaker is directed toward the seated listener, not the floor, as is common for high-end speakers. Additionally, flush mounting of the drivers eliminates edge diffraction. Asymmetrically shaped enclosure eliminates interior standing waves and provides outstanding rigidity to the loudspeaker. The resulting sound is highly accurate and pristine.

Highest quality AUDIOQUEST Castle Rock internal wiring is used throughout. It features Solid Core and DBS system and it is thermally soldered. Internal Crossover features hand selected, matched components that are point to point soldered on 10mm panel. Aircore woofer coil uses impressive 4mm2 high purity copper wire.

  • Scan-Speak 10" Revelator mid-bass driver with advanced carbon fiber reinforced paper cone and resulting in extremely low distortion and high power capability
  • Latest 1" Scan-Speak Illuminator tweeter housed in its own chamber
  • Tweeter membrane features a toroid shape rather than the typical sphere producing outstanding flat frequency response. Six neodymium magnets positioned in the AirCirc rear chamber create a permanent magnetic field.
  • Midrange features Scan-Speak symmetrical drive SD-3, where the magnetic field is generated by neodymium magnet. Sophisticated cone with integrated flat ridges suppresses standing waves in the cone.
  • Spatial 3-D modeled curved front baffle is key in achieving flat frequency response
  • BDS cabinet damping and non-reflective internal panels eliminate standing waves inside speaker cabinet
  • Acoustic axis of the speaker is directed toward the seated listener, not the floor as is common with most loudspeakers
  • Cabinet is reinforced by unique pockets with steel vibration absorbing beads
  • Custom 5-way speaker terminals feature machined polyethylene plate and solid core gold plated copper connectors
  • Audioquest Castle Rock internal wiring
  • Bi-wireable or bi-ampable
