Emotion 3   Floorstanding as in K+T 5/2024

Technical data
  • impedance: 4 Ohm
  • sensivity (2,83V/1m): 89 dB
  • size (HxWxD): 1000 x 225 x 308 mm
  • frequency range (-8dB): 50 - 28000 Hz
  • crossover frequency(s): 230, 2600 Hz
  • speaker type: bass reflex

Emotion 3 is a three way floorstanding speaker.

Emotion 3 is a bass-reflex cabinet loudspeaker with drivers of Omnes Audio and ScanSpeak.

The kit is delivered with the following drivers:
- a Omnes Audio AMT 60.3 air motion transformer (ribbon-tweeter)
- a ScanSpeak 12W-4524G00 mids driver
- two ScanSpeak 18W-8434G00 woofers

The loudspeaker has been developed by Gerd Lommersum.

The crossover consists of:
- a 3rd order high-pass filter (18 dB per octave slope) for the tweeter.
- a band pass consisting of a 2nd order high pass filter (12 dB per octave slope) and a 2nd order low-pass filter (12 dB per octave slope) for the mids-woofer.
- a 2nd order low-pass filter (12 dB per octave slope) for the woofer.

The frequency response of this speaker is nearly linear.

The decay spectrum is nearly perfect.

At low volume, i.e. 85 dB at 1 m, the nonlinear distortions are below 0,5% above 300 Hz and doesn't exceed 0,7% at 95 dB at 1 m between 300 and 15000 Hz.

Kit with high-end crossover

The high-end kit is delivered with baked varnish air core coils on important parts of the crossover for minimizing microphonic effects. - The current flow through the coil creates a magnetic field which sets the reel of wire in motion. This motion induces a voltage in the coil which adds itself to the signal. The stiffer the reel of wire is, the less the signal will be altered. The capacitors for the Omnes Audio AMT 60.3 are of type polypropylen (MKP) Clarity-Cap ESA.
