The Singled-Point ConcentricTM Technology Explained
The technology behind these speakers are revolutionary. Designed to playback the full range of sounds in the most realistic and dynamic way they have a tweeter mounted at the same plane as the mid range tweeter or a common point. This improves the sound harmonics meaning that the sound is very direct and not spread out in all directions. An example of this effect is when playing a full orchestrated soundtrack, with Singled-Point ConcentricTM speakers you will clearly and precisely hear each and every instrument being played. But that is not the revolutionary aspect, the main revolution is what you will hear that no other speaker can recreate, is the direction and position of the instrument being played. An instrument plays on the back right and you will hear an instrument playing in the back right. Another instrument palys on the left and you will hear that instrument playing on the left. The effect is really like being there and with no distortion no matter the volume.
ONE SOURCE IS BETTER THAN TWO
In the ideal world manufacturers would like to produce a single drive unit that copes with all of the frequency range. But the laws of physics being what they are, a driver that works well for low frequencies will not work well for high frequencies and visa versa. So separate drive units are used for different areas of the frequency band. Most manufacturers have developed completely different drive units and placed them in a single box or in several boxes to create a full range system. Unfortunately as soon as you break the audio signal into separate sections and transmit it from different points in space all sorts of problems occur.
ONE DRIVER – ONE DIRECTIVITY
A lot of energy has gone into the design of constant directivity horns that control the acoustic dispersion from the HF driver. This is important to maintain an even coverage at all frequencies over the target area.
Controlling the directivity also allows the sound from the speaker to be more accurately targeted to where it is needed. Targeting keeps the sound where you want it, and away from the walls and ceiling. This cuts down the amount of high level reflections that cause at best, reduced intelligibility, and at worse, resonances and feedback. In this age of tighter controls on working conditions it is also important to keep sound levels down in work areas. Levels that are acceptable on a discotheque floor, will not be acceptable in the nearby bar area where staff are working all the time.
Two drive units – two directivities.
At very low frequencies all systems radiate omni-directionally. From a few hundred Hertz and above, dispersion control can be introduced by mechanically and acoustically adjusting the radiated wavefront. The problem with most two or three-way speaker solutions is that while the HF is correctly controlled with a constant directivity horn, the mid and mid/low frequency speakers are left to fend for themselves.
Consequently the radiation pattern for the high frequencies is completely different to the radiation pattern produced by the lower frequency drive units.
With different dispersions at different frequencies, the off-axis frequency versus amplitude response will be quite different to the on-axis response. The difference in sound balance will also not be consistent. It will depend on where you are sitting, and what frequencies are being handled at the time. Also with widely differing dispersion patterns the amount of energy being radiated into the room varies enormously with frequency. Peaks and troughs of energy aggravate the unpredictability of a room's performance, making it impossible to introduce equalisation that meets the requirements both of on-axis response and even room energy performance.
By designing the Single-point Concentric loudspeaker as an integrated full range driver, So-voioe can produce a consistent conical directivity pattern uniquely across a much larger portion of the frequency range. Except for the very low omni-directional frequencies, what you get on axis is an even response; what you get off-axis is the same even response. The energy going into the room is controlled, for natural and highly intelligible sound reproduction.

Technology Feature:
1. So-voioe speaker can mechanically combines the high, mediant ,and undertone units, which enables it can be operated under common conditions with design of undertone vibration horn and the dome hight/mediant bass unit being set at the undertone horn, which could satisfies one point, synchronized transmission .
2. Hight/mediant and undertone use the same magnet circle system and drive two independent vibration system, which means So-Voioe louderspeaker is one kind of standard two way speaker system.
