Planot technology is the solution.

A new way...

A new dynamic loudspeaker technology that eliminates the need for an enclosing box and separate drivers for highs, mids and bass frequencies. Consequently, no crossover is needed. This new design allows for all frequencies to be radiated in a unified cylindrical wave front. Sound is radiated in 360 degrees in the horizontal plane. In the vertical plane it radiates as a line source producing an ideal radiation pattern for the listening space.

Not only does Planot reproduce sound more accurately than any other design but it is cheaper to manufacture and uses fewer natural resources. It is a green machine.

The Planot speaker functions as a "folded" planar speaker that pivots around its long axis, hence the name Planot (planar/pivot) speaker. As far as air is concerned, the driver is a one-sided surface (an object that has no back) and therefore no negative back wave to cancel the front wave.

A Planot driver's width ensures that the highest frequencies, therefore all frequencies, radiate in a 360 degree pattern. This been proven in laboratory tests. NCEE Labs tested the Planot speaker in their 10 meter semi-anechoic chamber.

Its pivoting design overcomes the so-called "pistonic" flexing of traditional speakers of all kinds. The Pivot trades torsional forces for the tensile forces that traditional speakers' designs must endure.

A typical Planot driver would be triangular in cross section and 48 inches long, with each face being 3/4 inches across the short dimension. See illustrations.

The Planot has no box, no crossover, no diaphragm flexing and no surround or spider. The traditional compromises of loudspeaker design have been eliminated. Just the basics are left. The Planot speaker is the most minimum of machines between the sound and your experience.
