Shown
above are both models of the DNA
loudspeaker.
Yes...
we had to do it! The
performance and popularity of
our original small model DNA
horn-speakers got us to
wondering how spectacular
might it be if we scaled them
up to use a 8-inch drivers!
The result well exceed our
expectations, which were
high. These speakers not
only set a new performance
benchmark with our bigger
amplifiers, but also won in
the 2 watt amplifier
category. As a result
they are our favorite speaker
to pair with our 25th
Anniversary Zen Triode
amplifier because the speakers
make it sound like you have
WAY MORE power than you
actually do.
Bass on these rear loaded
folded-horn speakers is
unrivaled on either hi or low
power amplifiers.

The results are just what
the doctor ordered... an almost
perfect mirror of the original, just a
lot more of it! More efficiency,
more body, more weight, more scale.

Designer Steve Deckert talking
about...
The DRIVERS:
"For this scaled-up version called the
DNA2, I already knew there were many
drivers that would sound great in this
cabinet design. In fact the
prototypes were built with
interchangeable baffles so we could test
all the possible combinations...
When we got to the two-way combination
using in our DM947 drivers I knew it was
all over. In fact we stopped any
additional testing after hearing this
combo."
The CABINET:
"As you may have figured out by looking
at the frequency response - the secret
to the DNA horn design is that it
stretches bass response down to nearly
1/2 the driver's fs. This is a good
thing because you get that precious low
bass with the speed of a higher fs
driver that moves less!"
"This speaker does 3 things
exceptionally well:
1) It has extraordinary bass
extension and quality.
2) It has world class imaging
capabilities.
3) It has unusually flat and
smooth frequency balance.
It can do all of it with just a
couple watts."
