The Satori range was founded to separate more expensive projects from a wider range of more affordable - but still high-end - SB Acoustics products. “As we get more experience, new materials, better simulation tools, we believe in benefiting the customer with those improvements. We always knew that geometry is essential and we are working more and more with geometry. Every time we get new materials, like beryllium, and we optimize the designs, there’s always room for improvement. We’ve been able to implement significant improvements with beryllium, and we could obtain pretty good results in combination with geometry."

TeXtreme - Combining ultralight weight, high stiffness and controlled break up behavior.  TeXtreme is an advanced, super thin carbon fiber fabric that maximizes the strength-to-weight ratio. Our new advanced carbon fiber cones are made from TeXtreme® spread tow fabric. The spread tow technology offers several advantages over regular tow fabrics, such as very low crimp, lower weight and improved cosmetics (cones are very flat and smooth). The laminated thin-ply TeXtreme® material has an excellent stiffness-to-weight ratio (though surpassed by beryllium, it is also significantly less expensive). The outstanding physical properties of this composite material has allowed us to design cone profiles that normally wouldn’t perform well with commonly used materials. When supported by a small TeXtreme ® coupler cone (attached at a critical diameter), the integrated concave cones produce a smooth frequency response throughout the midrange area with minimum excitation of break-up modes.

The high bending stiffness of the cones also ensures true piston operation at low frequencies, which guarantees a solid bass reproduction. The cones are perfectly matched with our new dedicated low damping rubber surrounds. This combination ensures excellent micro dynamics/resolution and transient reproduction without leaving any trace of the unwanted edge resonance – midrange distortion is at a minimum.

FEATURES

• Advanced TeXtreme(R) cone for improved piston operation
• Large optimized motor system with under-cut pole piece and dual shorting rings

About SB Acoustics

Built from the foundation of a company with decades of manufacturing experience and partnered with an engineering group touted for their revolutionary designs.

SB Acoustics was formed to bring an alternative to the hi-end transducer market. Marrying the design talents of Danesian Audio (Denmark), a company filled with industry veterans, responsible for many well known and revolutionary designs; and manufacturing partner Sinar Baja Electric (Indonesia), a vertically integrated company with more than 27 years of transducer manufacturing experience.

We feel we have been able to create an affordable line of products, without compromising acoustic performance for cost. Ultimately, we invite you to judge.
