The Caruso R 10

The R 10 is a very compact, beautifully constructed two-way bookshelf monitor which offers out-standing sound qualities. Although only 17cm wide and just 31 cm in height, the R 10 produces the sound experience of considerably larger loudspeakers. It is ideal for the smaller room and difficult situations, and harmonises perfectly with the Caruso R. Its spacious sound quality, natural reproduction and lively nature make it ideal for every kind of music.

Construction

The R 10 is a very carefully designed two-way loudspeaker offering all the inherent advantages of the type. Music reproduction is extremely spacious and natural, while positional accuracy is phenomenal. Despite its small size, the speaker’s bass response is excellent. The reason behind this is its newly developed bass / mid-range driver, which is ultra-linear in response, low in distortion, and still capable of very large excursions. This is achieved through the use of a new magnet system with optimised magnetic field geometry, special vibrating components and a modified cone construction. The frequency range and phase response of the woven dome tweeter unit are exactly matched to the transitional range, and this, in conjunction with the sound ducts for the bass / mid-range unit, produces outstanding radiation characteristics over the upper frequency range.
