A series of calibrated perforations on the back of each panel act as progressive dampers, controlling the mylar membrane right where it moves most: at its resonance frequency and during high-volume passages.

The plane wave diffusion and dipole operation on both sides of the speakers ensure an immersive listening experience without the typical sound projection effects. The use of extremely thin mylar membranes allows for high-speed response with minimal drag, maintaining consistent dynamic behavior across the entire frequency spectrum. This uniformity is achieved by using the same type of diaphragm from bass to treble, providing balanced and detailed sound even at low listening levels. Additionally, the isodynamic design eliminates the \"box sound\" commonly associated with midrange buzz, preserving the natural timbre of voices and instruments. The regular impedance simplifies integration with amplifiers, ensuring long-term performance without susceptibility to dust, humidity, or high voltage issues.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExclusive Diptyque Features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePPBM® (Push Pull Bipolar Magnet): \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis innovative patented architecture uses large section bipolar magnets located at the front and rear of the diaphragm.
