Bass Power and midrange finesse

The exclusive, custom designed MK Sound 5.25” bass/midrange drive unit represents the culmination of over three decades of intensely focused transducer design. While most loudspeaker manufacturers make specious boasts that their drivers are “heavily modified to their specifications,” the drivers used in the MK Sound 150 range are in fact designed in-house by full-time engineers that have been instrumental in the design of MK Sound transducers for more than two decades.

Because MK Sound alone dictates the specifications for our drive units down to the very last detail, based on extensive original experimentation and research, our loudspeakers are not subject to the changing whims and fads of standard off-the-shelf drive units.

MK Sound proudly works to a higher, stricter standard, implementing meaningful changes as technology advances.

The dual 5.25” 150 woofer configuration employs a pin-cushion basket design with narrow basket flange to permit close placement of two woofers on a compact baffle. Modest baffle dimensions ensure structural integrity, while eliminating destructive diffraction phenomena.

A completely open cast aluminum basket structure with four solid pillars allows unimpeded airflow on both sides of the cone and around all moving parts for immediate heat dissipation. Unlike conventional baskets designed with a plateau for spider mounting, the MK design team opted for a cup spider design, ensuring absolutely free airflow.

The development of cone and surround, crucial components with major impact on ultimate sound quality, was a collaborative effort with Peerless, leading Danish transducer specialists intimately familiar with MK Sound’s design objectives after decades as supplier and partner.

Working closely, MK Sound and the Peerless transducer team (Among the world’s foremost transducer designers, Peerless was founded in Denmark in 1926.) developed a breakthrough cone geometry, optimized to work in combination with a unique polypropylene based diaphragm material. The Polypropylene base, infused with 20% carefully selected minerals, provides a perfect balance between cone stiffness and internal damping.

The woofer’s low reflectivity cone is the result of a carefully calibrated combination of materials and geometry with a low-loss SBR rubber surround and edge resonance stabilizer.

The woofer’s low reflectivity cone is the result of a carefully calibrated combination of materials and geometry with a low-loss SBR rubber surround and edge resonance stabilizer.

The cone geometry follows a straight line for the surface area beyond the dust cap with a small radius shape under the dust cap. As the earliest cone break-up modes generally occur close to the voice coil, the advanced mathematics underlying the cone geometry provides substantial attenuation of travelling waves well before they reach the edge of the cone, resulting in significantly reduced edge resonances.

The unstrained clarity and sonic purity that have been the hallmark of the MK Sound 150 range from the very beginning are in large part a direct result of this conscientious, innovative design work.

The MK woofer features a thermally stable voice coil wound on an aluminum former. The former ensures linear damping for strict system control even at high sound pressure levels.

The thermally stable voice coil, capable of operating at up to 250 degrees Celsius, is symmetrically mounted in a strontium ferrite magnet system to function as an overhung coil in the gap, for reliable, consistent handling of powerful transients and sustained high output. Unlike most magnetic materials that lose power at temperature extremes, the MK Strontium magnet retains full power across a broad temperature spectrum.

The magnet system generates a linear magnetic field across the full coil length even at maximum excursion (+/- 3.5 mm), for minimal distortion all the way up to the driver’s maximum output levels.

A shielding magnet and can are added to minimize stray field emissions and to focus additional flux in the gap. These uncompromising methods ensure that the driver continues to meet its strict performance requirements for years to come.

With a mere 8.5 gram of moving mass, the MK Sound bass/mid unit is capable of lightning fast, accurate response across its entire operating range with a firm grip even on the most complicated program material.

It is this extreme level of precision and effortless, natural sound reproduction that continues to make the MK Sound 150 range the choice of professionals and enthusiasts.

Miller & Kreisel® S150T

An Entirely New Perspective

Side- or rear-mounted speakers in a multi-channel audio system pose a radically different set of performance challenges relative to conventional stereo systems, because surround speakers are typically positioned much closer to the listener and deliver sound to the ears from very different angles.

Unfortunately, most multi-channel installations ignore these critical factors entirely and simply employ the same type of direct-radiating monopole drivers that have been the norm for well over a century. These conventional loudspeakers feature drivers mounted on one side only (monopole) and aimed directly at the listening position. As a result of the close proximity to the listening area, they are easily identifiable as the source of sound, failing to disappear in a credible you-are-there sonic illusion.

A costly alternative in recent decades is the dipole surround speaker with no drivers on the front directly facing the audience, but identical sets of drivers on two sides. By generating sound from one side in phase and the other out of phase (dipole) with no sound radiating directly at the listening position, dipoles successfully create a diffuse soundfield, but at the expense of any sound actually intended to be heard as a specific image.

The proprietary M&K Sound Tripole™ configuration, essentially two speakers mounted in a single cabinet, is the first and only technology to effectively address these major issues to deliver both image specificity and an enveloping surround field, without compromise.

The Miller & Kreisel® S150T THX Tripole™ combines both front and side mounted drivers to direct the surround image both indirectly and directly into the listening area, for a smoother, more robust surround image in perfect harmony with the front three channels. Because the S150T THX Ultra2 Tripole™ employs the same exclusive, innovative high frequency driver as the Miller & Kreisel® S150, THX Ultra2, sonic consistency and voice matching are assured.
