The QBx 25 features unique cabinet construction, superior The Quiet Box -- or QBx, as Snell calls it -- reduces vibrations for a cleaner, more distinct sound. Vibrations tend to blur, sometimes even romanticize, a loudspeaker's sound. The QBx sound, perhaps because of the speakers' rigid construction, is best characterized as neutral. The QBx doesn't embellish music, nor is it designed solely for a soundtrack's exaggerated special effects. It possesses an accuracy prized by audio purists drive units, 2 1/2 way design and a complex crossover, which contribute to its superior sound quality. QBx Technology In an ideal speaker, the speaker cabinet is inert and resonance free. It should have smooth contours without projections that cause reflections which degrade high frequency response. In short, the cabinet should not negatively affect the sound of the loudspeaker. QBx (Quiet box) refers to a number of techniques that reduce the detrimental effects that typically come from the resonances and reflections of ordinary cabinets. “Butterfly” grille cutout The necessary cutout area around the tweeter is given a highly irregular contour to prevent the irregular high frequency response that would otherwise occur. The contour expands and contracts around the perimeter of the tweeter, creating a “butterfly” shape. Elliptical baffle edges The grille is mounted flush into the baffle. The baffle edges have large elliptical radiuses. This smooths the cabinet termination, greatly reducing the edge reflections. High frequency smoothness is preserved. High-Loss Sandwich Baffle The unique high loss baffle is constructed from multiple layers of wood and a high tech adhesive. The “lossy” adhesive that laminates the two layers of speaker baffle greatly reduces cabinet resonances, resulting in purer midrange and clean, crisp bass. Hand-Tuned Crossover The crossover networks were designed using sophisticated computer simulation. Final system balance is determined by exhaustive listening tests. These networks adhere to an “in-phase” or Linkwitz-Reilly design: time alignment and coherency are maintained through the transition region from driver to driver. In production, each crossover is individually tuned by technicians to within ±0.5dB of the Master Reference, ensuring predictable performance in your home. Drive Units This 2 1/2 way tower uses a 1-inch black-anodized aluminum dome tweeter with a multifinned aluminum heatsink and dual 6 1/2-inch bass units with High Definition Aerogel cones. The video-shielded driver complement provides unlimited placement options
