30" Ribbon Midrange Tweeter
The R30 is a classic design Ribbon used on our R630v3 model. It has hundreds of fans around the world.
The R30 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 R30s classic status.
Simply put, nothing gets out of the way of the music like an R Series Ribbons. 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 small public assembly sound systems. The R30 has a very high and even impedance. Any amplifier will safely drive it.
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.
