The Alpair 7A Gen.
Its range, near flat response and special design features set it apart from other full-range driver of similar size.. 3 is near unique (if not totally unique).
The Alpair 7A Gen.
Its Cone profile and under-hung front suspension allow for a clean wide acoustic image, making it easier to optimize box positioning in most listening environments.
The off-axis responses and central stereo image emitted from this Alpair 7 are possibly best in class.
In an optimized box design, the system can be made capable of operating from 40-Hz to 32-kHz, possibly a unique performance for a simple Cone driver in its size and class.
With the rear and front covers attached, the driver has a SPL of near 86dB while retaining an X-max of +4-mm available for peak non-rhythmic bass loads.
Its Cone and power-train are the most micro-resonance sensitive made by MarkAudio to date.
The acoustic performance of this driver is solidly placed in the purist-audiophile category.
While we recommend its use, the frameʼs diameter is minimized to 130-mm, helping those who want to make slimmer box designs.
The frameʼs front cover is also made removable.
The performance change with the cover removed is small, so the installation choices for the end user is optimal.
Removal helps those box makers who design shallow cabinets or wish to optimize internal box volumes.
Simply pull away from the driverʼs main body, no tools are needed to do this job.
The cover\'s magnetic attraction keeps it attached to the main driver body.
The rear magnet cover can be removed.
The result is improved linearity and damping on the moving components.
Both these components add pre-tension to the power-train.
The 7 employs a rear ring-clamped suspension system and a new torque loaded rear suspension (spider).
This Alpair 7A has an advanced damping system such that it delivers a near flat response across its range.
The usable range now extents to 32-kHz above 80dB, which is higher than many tweeters.
In its size class, this Alpair 7 currently delivers the widest frequency range. 3 represents a large step forward in the design and production of extended full range audio drivers.
