The heart of the Octave Signature Bookshelf is the 5¼” bass midrange driver, equipped with an enormous 3” voice coil inside of which is placed the magnet system.
This unusually large voice coil configuration is three times larger than in conventional drive units of this size. Bass output from this drive unit is surprisingly deep and powerful yet very articulate.
Designed in a modular form the Octave Signature Subwoofer can be added to the Octave Signature Bookshelf to create a true 3-way loudspeaker system for stereo applications.
