Mikro Desktop is a small loudspeaker that employs a Wavecor full range loudspeaker FR070WA04. Mikro Desktop has been developed by Bernd Timmermanns.
Mikro Desktop is a compact speaker with closed cabinet. Below 160 Hz it should be enhanced by a subwoofer.
The crossover consists of a LRC notch filter wired in series. Also in series a capacitor is employed. In parallel to the full range driver a RL circuit is arranged.
Between 50 Hz and 17 kHz, the frequency response of this loudspeaker is nearly flat on axis together with a subwoofer. The decay spectrum is nearly perfect below 17 kHz. At low volume, i.e. 80 dB at 1 m, the nonlinear distortions are below 0.1% above 600 Hz.
Below 160 Hz Mikro Desktop should be supported by a subwoofer.
the crossover components (right), to be mounted on a small wooden board.
Kit without cabinet, price per speaker EUR 69,00 excl. VAT: € 57.98 / $ 65.52
The high-end kit comes with two Audaphon MKP CAP superior capacitors. Two of the inductances are baked varnished coils for minimizing microphonic effects. - The current flow through the coil creates a magnetic field which sets the reel of wire in motion. This motion induces a voltage in the coil which adds itself to the signal. The stiffer the reel of wire is, the less the signal will be altered.
