SB-C600

Features

Advanced Phase Precision Driver

To reproduce music with enhanced spatial sound expressivity
requires that the wavefronts of sounds radiated from the speaker unit are all
aligned regardless of the listening position. The concept of point sound source
is one of the ideal approaches to achieve it.

To realize the point sound source reproduction, the coaxial configuration was
adopted and then it was combined with the originally shaped Linear Phase Plug
for aligning phases and the Smooth Flow Diaphragm formed with a shallow-shape
diaphragm and smooth edge shape for minimum sound reflection. The result is a
spherical wave with aligned wavefronts of radiated sounds.

The SB-C600’s 2-way coaxial speaker unit realizes clear sound image localization
and smooth and emotion-rich, high-quality sound, while inheriting the concepts
of point sound source and linear phase that Technics pursues relentlessly.

Linear Phase Plug

The originally shaped acoustic plug is positioned on the
front side of the tweeter diaphragm and provides a high-resolution sound
reproduction capability and a wide sound stage.

Smooth Flow Diaphragm

If the sound wave has irregularities on its sound
transmitting surface, its wavefront becomes disturbed by the shapes of the
irregularities, resulting in the degradation of frequency characteristics. High
frequencies that have short wavelengths tend to be more susceptible to the
degradation of sound characteristics. The woofer diaphragm in the coaxial
speaker unit has a shallow shape and smooth edge to reduce sound reflection.
The result is minimal disturbance of the wavefronts of sound waves radiated
from the diaphragm to realize excellent frequency response and phase
characteristics as well as wide directivity.

This configuration achieves a wide sound stage and smooth and rich mid- to
high-frequency range.

Smooth Flow Port

A bass reflex port with an ordinary shape produces a large
air current vortex that induces annoying high-frequency noise. Technics
employed the airflow control method utilized for airplane wings and designed
the cross-sectional shape of the port using flow analysis. The optimally
designed port shape does not cause airflow disturbance at the opening and
ensures high-quality bass reproduction with minimum noise and superb response.

Stationary Construction

It thoroughly removes undesirable or unnecessary sounds and
reproduces only the necessary sounds with a high signal-to-noise ratio. The
“Balanced Driver Mount Architecture” used in the grand class SB-G90M2 has been
optimized for this model by making full use of CAE. In addition, the speaker
mount baffle that holds the speaker units in place has been newly designed to
strengthen the rigidity of the entire cabinet. The combination of these factors
maximizes the advantages of the gravity center mount structure. The rigidity
and shape of each part that makes up the coaxial speaker unit has been
carefully studied to eliminate unnecessary vibration and noise.

Balanced Driver Mounting Architecture

To realize a calm and low-distortion sound, the SB-C600
employs a speaker mount baffle created by optimizing the low-resonance,
high-rigidity design concept of the SB-G90M2 using CAE.

The originally shaped speaker mount baffle keeps the concentration of stress in
check. The speaker mount baffle secures enough vent holes to ensure smooth flow
of sounds radiated from the back sides of the speaker units and improve the
response while maintaining low resonance and high rigidity. In addition, this
structure reduces the vibrations of the entire enclosure and minimizes the
effects on other equipment.
