1 Technical Specifications
EF5 Twister 3.1 is a passive 3-way horn-loa-
ded system with an extended low- frequen-
cy direct emission component. Professional
HI-PRO two-way audio system with horn-lo-
aded speaker technology, designed to seam-
lessly integrate with dedicated transducers,
built from high resistance composite mate-
rials for elevated sensitivity, dynamics, and
definition. Wide-angle coverage of a highly
controlled sound field, and the ability to re
-
ach high sound levels without perceptible
distortion. The system is characterized by
excellent sound quality the ability to reach hi-
gh-pressure ranges. A pair of large full-frontal
horns manage the high-mid frequency ran-
ge through a dedicated passive crossover(or
using a 2 ch amDSP). The high-range
horn is characterized by a special high-end
derivation design. The long and complex de-
velopment with variable sections allows a
wide dispersion with powerful loading. The
Shockwave 2.1 mid-range horn has a uni-
que design that creates an extraordinary le-
vel of efficiency and sensitivity. This allows for
excellent dynamics that distinguish the entire
system from the very first listen. The extended
low-frequency direct emission component is
characterized by a light structure with a highly
resistant ovoid shell, containing a 15 “woo-
fer with a 30-400 Hz range and high sensiti-
vity. This component can alone cover the mid
and low frequencies or can be assisted by
additional subwoofers to cover the lower fre-
quencies with additional power. The LF driver
features a water-resistant cone. Components
such as the speakers, woofers, and compres-
sion drivers all represent world-class quality,
without commercial or technological compro-
mises. Thanks to its elevated sensitivity, the
system requires limited amplification power.
The EF5 Twister system is manageable throu-
gh bi- amplification with DSP for managing
cuts between the high-mid and low routes.
The two high-mid horn components are ma-
naged passively by a specific crossover filter.
A Full-Fat audio FFA 8004 is the recommen-
ded 4 channel amplifier partnered in this sy
-
stem (stereo configuration) with a dedicated
DSP. Otherwise, it can be managed actively
by three amplifiers and by traditional DSP. Any
additional subwoofers are sold separately.
