The Oval 45 features high impedance and high sensitivity so it will partner extremely well with a wide variety of amplifiers and electronics. It's low crossover point of around 1kHz allows a seamless off axis response to be achieved when used with audiophile quality midbasses and woofers of 7" diameter or smaller.
The result will be exception transparency and dynamic levels from a simple system well within the ability of any loudspeaker kit builder.
Consisting of 4 12" subwoofers, driven by a 1100watt Crown amplifier, cabling and connectors.
Standard Finish: Black Oak Laminate
Quadruple stacked Modules with a total of 12 ScanSpeak 5" Revelator midbasses and two 45" Ribbons per side.

Newform offers a range of loudspeakers which covers a very wide range of room sizes and applications. However, many audio enthusiasts have their own specific vision of what they would like to see in a loudspeaker and how a loudspeaker should fit into their room. So for very specific applications, technical visions and aesthetic requirements, Newform offers unique solutions.
Midbass drivers, cabinet dimensions, finishes can be mixed and matched to your specific needs. In our 1" MDF midbass enclosures as well as in our curved wall cabinets.
THE OPTIONS FOR MIDBASS DRIVERS ARE BROAD:
3" to 7" ScanSpeak, Accuton, Eton, Vifa, Seas, Peerless - basically any high end drivers.
WIRING OPTIONS:
We can accommodate various wire types and sizes for internal wiring but it must be of a kind which will not stress the terminals of the drivers either during operation or shipping.
The crossovers can be mounted internally or externally and almost any kind of binding post can be incorporated into the loudspeaker construction.
Cabinets can be made using two different types of construction. The first is the conventional 6 sided cabinet optimized with v3 technology and the second is the curved side cabinets.
RANGE OF CABINET DIMENSIONS AND SHAPES:
Height Width Depth
- v3 technology 6 sided - 12" - 38" high, 8" - 16" wide, 8" - 20" deep
- Curved Side - 12" - 48" high (no limit on stacking), 8" - 16" wide, 10" - 22" deep
FINISHES:
Cabinet cladding - oak, maple, cherry and a wide range of veneers and laminated
Corian/Solid Surface Tops / Bases
Veneer Tops
Steel Tops/Bases
CAVEATS
If you specify your own choice of midbass driver or a mix of our current midbasses which will represent a mismatch of sensitivities between Ribbons and midbass, then you will have to include an electronic crossover and biamping in your plans.
The good news - very high sensitivity and high impedance SE tube amp friendly designs are possible particularly with tall LineSource and our Neodymium Ribbons.
If you would like to proceed with a custom application, keep in mind that we will be starting with extremely high quality midbass drivers and our own superb Ribbon drivers. These will be incorporated in excellent midbass enclosures so the musical results will be there in the end. You’ll just have something that fits your life a little better than any other loudspeaker in the world.

R45 Ribbon Midrange Tweeter
The R45 is a classic design Ribbon used on our R645v3 model. It has thousands of fans around the world.
The R45 is designed as a top mount Ribbon for use above the cabinet housing the midbasses. Good efficiency, wide dispersion and superb soundstaging are the basis for the R45s classic status.
Simply put, nothing gets out of the way of the music like an R45 system. Excellent dynamics and the ability to achieve a very high level of transparency at high or low levels make the R45 suitable for a broad range of applications from low powered stereo systems to home theater to medium size public assembly sound systems.
For speaker kit builders, a simple 6dB (single capacitor) crossover and good quality midbasses are pretty much the only ingredients necessary to assure superbly musical results. Aim for a crossover of around 1kHz and when placing the speakers, try and give them as much air as possible. Very high end audio in a stereo or home theater system can be achieved with very modest effort and investment.
