Detailed Info about the Apogee Slant 6
Top: Slant 6 and 8
Official Info
The Slant 6 was the replacement for the Centaur as the mid sized ribbon hybrid. It has a 6.5″ cone woofer in a rigid sloped back enclosure of 24 litres, and a 26″ ribbon tweeter which is the same as the Stage. The Slant 6 was available in a shielded version for home theater use, something which Apogee seemed to be aiming for in the last years or two of their existence.
Many of the design advancements made during the development of the Grand series have been incorporated into the SLANT SERIES.
Features
- Deeper bass extension and a ore dynamic sound with excellent impact.
- Ribbons have suspension control to allow louder playback levels with lower distortion.
- Slanted cabinets reduce internal standing waves for cleaner bass and midrange.
- Slanted cabinets provide the ribbon midrange with a trapezoidal rear acoustic path for smoother midrange treble response.
- Seamless crossovers assure a wide stable sound stage with excellent image depth.
