The Philosophy The Novasonar flat-panel loudspeaker: The Novasonar flat-panel loudspeaker: architectural component offers the architect and designer the opportunity to combine creative design concepts and high-quality audio without compromises architectural component offers innumerable design possibilities for public and private buildings... totally invisible!... totally invisible! The technology Well known models for bending-wave transducers e.g.: acoustic musical instruments... the Novasonar flat-panel loudspeaker is a bending-wave transducer a vibration is translated to the body through the strings, causing the body itself to vibrate. The surface disperses this vibration as sound. The technology: The bending-wave transducer The technology: The bending-wave transducer 1
The Novasonar flat-panel loudspeaker is also a bending-wave transducer The Novasonar flat-panel loudspeaker: the Exciter the flat-panel membrane is caused by an electromagnetic moving coil system to vibrate. The surface of the membrane disperses this vibration as sound. The technology: The bending-wave transducer wide frequency range: 100 Hz up to 18000 Hz if required, the frequency rane can be extended by using a Novasonar Boxer subwoofer The technology: The sound radiation Radiation characteristics of conventional cone loudspeakers The typical sound radiation of conventional cone loudspeakers Radiation angle within the range of reproduction of syllables very narrow ( 30 ) Radiation characteristics of Radiation chacteristics of conventional cone loudspeakers extreme directivity of the higher frequencies restricted speech reproduction unsteady sound distribution as a function of frequency 2
The smooth sound radiation of Radiation chacteristics of Novasonar flat-panel loudspeakers wide radiation characteristics (180 h x 180 v) over the whole frequency range very clear speech reproduction to all directions very good spatial sound disribution over the whole frequency range Novasonar loudspeaker solutions Novasonar Dynamic and GK The loudspeaker consists of a commercial gypsum plaster board which is reconstructed to a flat-panel loudspeaker. The loudspeaker can be like a gypsum plaster board easily into commercial construction of gypsum plaster boards without any effort integrated. Novasonar KIT Novasonar Ceiling Novasonar KIT installation kits blend invisibly in panel materials, e.g. medium densitiy fiber boards (MDF), wood plates or chipboards. Thus the ML Flat-panel loudspeaker can be integrated invisibly and groovelessly e.g. in wooden panellings or furniture. This flat-panel loudspeaker is suitable for the direct integration into ceiling grids. The loudspeaker consists of a commercial fiber board, reconstructed to a flat-panel loudspeaker. Therefore Model Novasonar Ceiling can be delivered in nearly all original surface designs of commercial ceiling grids. 3
Novasonar Picture Novasonar Multimedia They hang on the wall and look like quite ordinary pictures. These flat-panel picture loudspeakers offer you an exclusive opportunity for acoustic irradiation and can be used wherever architecture requires special solutions. The Novasonar projection screen place the sound where it belongs. It comes from within the picture.
