TECHNOLOGY

For more than thirty years of passionate engagement with sound reproduction, Diptyque has explored and experienced the full spectrum of speaker technologies available on the market: electrodynamics, high efficiency, electrostatic, various forms of ribbon speakers, and those with rigid flat diaphragms among others. Each technology presents its own set of unmistakable benefits, yet Diptyque has come to the conclusion that isodynamic (also known as magnetostatic) loudspeakers encapsulate the zenith of natural music reproduction. This belief is rooted in the comprehensive advantages these speakers offer, particularly in their ability to present music with unparalleled authenticity, closely mirroring the original performance.

ADVANTAGES OF ISODYNAMIC TECHNOLOGY

• Broad dispersion through planar wave transmission ensures an enveloping listening experience without the effect of sound being projected directly.
• The dipole design of the speakers operates effectively on both sides, enhancing the spatial feel of a live concert within your personal listening space.
• Incorporating ultra-thin mylar membranes achieves rapid response and eliminates lag, ensuring swift sound delivery.
• Uniform diaphragm material across all frequency ranges guarantees that sound is produced at consistent speeds, leading to a coherent dynamic response throughout the audio spectrum.
• The absence of an enclosing box eliminates the common "boxy sound," preserving the natural timbre of voices and instruments without the interference of mid-range resonances.
• Delivers a balanced, detailed listening experience at low volumes, maintaining clarity and depth.
• Features a steady impedance, presenting a straightforward load for amplifiers without complications.
• Designed for durability and resistance to environmental factors like dust and humidity, these speakers avoid the pitfalls of high-voltage circuits, ensuring long-term reliability.

EXCLUSIVE DIPTYQUE TECHNOLOGIES

Isodynamic technology, revered among audiophiles and initially developed in the United States during the 1970s, has undergone significant enhancements through dedicated research and experimentation. Aiming to transcend its traditional limitations, especially in bass reproduction, Diptyque has introduced innovations to refine this technology.

• The PPBM® (Push Pull Bipolar Magnet) design stands as a patented breakthrough, utilizing large bipolar magnets positioned on both sides of the diaphragm. This configuration ensures the coil remains within a constant magnetic field during membrane movement, resulting in precise control. The outcome is a dynamic bass response and accurately rendered transient sounds, making the experience of listening to a grand piano strikingly realistic.
• A meticulously engineered sandwich mechanical structure, combining MDF chassis and 2mm steel sheets secured by numerous screws, provides a foundation of unparalleled rigidity. This design eliminates resonance, ensuring a pure sound devoid of any coloration and faithful to the original timbres.
• Diptyque's proprietary ribbon tweeters, crafted as isodynamic cells with mylar film and aluminum coil, operate within a powerful neodymium magnet-generated magnetic field. These tweeters cover a broad frequency spectrum, seamlessly integrating with isodynamic cells. A straightforward crossover network ensures cohesive sound across frequencies, resulting in highs that are smooth, detailed, and extend effortlessly, contributing to an exquisite soundstage.
