Emotion a new reference loudspeaker as in Hobby HiFi 4/2003

E-Motion
Technical data:
- dimensions (HxWxD): 110x28x45 cm
- impedance: 6 Ohm
- crossover frequency: 1300 Hz
- sensitivity: 85 dB (2.83V/1m)
- frequency range (-8dB): 20 - 40 000 Hz

This 2 way bass reflex speaker contains an Air Motion Transformer Eton ER4 and a Eton 8-472/32 HEX.

Like already determined by Klang+Ton assessing the Duetta the ER4 requires a small volume.

An excerpt of the review by Hobby HiFi:
"The E-Motion is a loudspeaker for all types of music and for highest quality demands. With the exception of extreme volumes this speaker is delivering the goods. This considered the E-Motion is certainly not expensive. Only thanks to the EURO one doesn't have to spend an mount with five digits for a similar finished loudspeaker."

Due to the low tuning (the bass extends to 20 Hz) the E-Motion is not suited for extreme volumes. Otherwise, the relatively small diaphragm's linear excursion would be too big.

For highest volumes we recommend a Duetta or Duetta Top with an adequate subwoofer, like a large Sub-Kult or an Alcone Sub 12 or Sub 22/400.
