Stradivari G2 Anniversary

Noah unveiled the Stradivari G2 Anniversary, the second generation of Sonus Faber’s new flagship speaker, the Stradivari Homage. Limited editions of 120 pairs worldwide and 12 pairs (4 pairs with 3 finishes each) in Japan, will be available for pre-order from 10 a.m. on November 10. Finished with Wenge, Red and Graphite.

Wenge、Red、Graphite

The first speaker was developed in 2003 as a tribute to Cremona violin craftsman Antonio Stradivari. Twenty years after its design, the Stradivari G2 Anniversary will appear in 2023 as a model to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Sonus Faber’s founding.

Using the state-of-the-art technology developed for this model, everything from the internal structure to the design of the unit and cabinet has been newly designed. “It was only possible because of the thorough manual work by traditional skilled craftsmen, and it embodied the essence of the history and philosophy of 40 years since the company’s founding.”

While the enclosure was based on traditional speaker manufacturing methods, its form evolved from the oval shape of the first generation to a pentagonal design. It is a “groundbreaking evolution in which technology seamlessly adapts to aesthetic needs.”

The distinctive front baffle was crafted by Sonus Faber craftsmen who are skilled in violin making, and is designed with wood sandwiched between aluminum. The painting and polishing are also based on techniques applied to the finest musical instrument making, with as many as seven layers of gloss coating.

The cabinet is made of natural wood, and CNC-machined aluminum plates with anodized aluminum and round edge treatment are attached to the top and bottom of the cabinet, and aluminum parts are also attached to the back, adopting a unique structure “exo-skeleton clamp” sandwiched between strong parts.

As a result, the cabinet is damped and vibration components are suppressed. It is said that it has realized the rich sound unique to natural wood and the reproduction of a moderately tight low range.

As a method to decouple vibration propagation from the floor surface and the entire cabinet, “Z.V.T.” (Zero Vibration Transmission) technology is followed. It is equipped with a silent spike that sandwiches elastomer resin in the attachment part of the spike.

The unit configuration is a 3.5-way 4-speaker bass reflex system. It has a tweeter, midrange, and woofer, and two woofers.

The bass reflex system uses the newly developed “Klepsidra Technology” for this speaker. It means “hourglass” and aims to maximize the freedom of speaker installation by emitting sound waves toward the bottom while achieving maximum low-frequency performance while reducing the duct length. The interior of the low-frequency chamber eliminates parallel planes to suppress the generation of standing waves.

“Intono Technology” is also introduced. Meaning “intonation,” the impedance peak in the midrange chamber is significantly reduced and improved by providing finely tuned holes in the sealed high/mid chamber.

By installing the company’s traditional wooden chamber on the back of the driver, the tweeter is not affected by the midrange driver, and high-frequency reproduction is realized while maintaining the purity of the tweeter.

The air pressure generated by the movement of the diaphragm is effectively damped by appropriate airflow adjustment by small holes, resulting in unparalleled natural mid-range regeneration. By minimizing the size and number of parts of the crossover network circuit, a simple crossover design is achieved.

As an ultra-low frequency adjustment system, LFA (Low Frequency Adjuster) is available. By correcting the resonance peak of the driver unit and performing effective damping in the low range without mounting resistor components in the signal path, the infiltrability of the low frequency range is increased as much as possible.

Four terminals are installed on the board adjacent to the speaker terminal, and one in the center is negative, and by connecting to one of the other three terminals with a jumper, different low-frequency response can be obtained.

Ultra-low frequency regulation system, LFA

The tweeter is a silk soft dome equipped with a 28mm diameter arrowpoint DAD. Mounted on a tough die-cast aluminum frame, the tweeter apex is partially damped to suppress the diaphragm’s reversed-phase behavior. It uses proprietary “DAD (Damped Apex Dome) technology” that further demonstrates the transparency and stretch of the high range. In addition, the tripod structure D.A.D. greatly improves high-frequency sound wave diffusion and control capability at high volumes.

The mid-range is a 150mm diameter paper cone with a unique diaphragm made by blending natural fibers such as cellulose pulp, kapok, and kenaf and drying them naturally. Powerful neodymium magnets provide fast, shortest and most accurate response to moving coils composed of copper-clad aluminum windings (CCAW). The basket has a strong aluminum die-cast frame that “combines ideal high-speed drive with high control, providing a natural sound without stagnation.”

The phase plug is also newly designed, with a unique damping ring to minimize sound disturbances caused by coil operation and to physically correct the resonance in the high frequency band of the paper cone.

woofer

The woofer is specially designed with a diameter of 260mm. The two ultra-lightweight CCAW voice coils feature custom-made neodymium drivers for ultra-fast drive, while featuring an aluminum air gap that enhances voice coil cooling.

The newly developed center cap is composed of ABS resin with excellent rigidity. By analyzing and optimizing the material, shape, and thickness of the cone, rubber edge, and BIMAX spider by structural analysis using a computer based on F.E.M (Finite Element Method = Finite Element Method), the frame basket that holds the diaphragm is also newly designed.

The crossover network is designed based on PARACROSS TOPOLOGY, which is also used in the Aida II, and the newly developed “Interactive Fusion Filtering”, and while optimizing the amplitude/phase characteristics and space/temporal characteristics of each driver unit, the impedance of low frequencies is optimally controlled to match with the amplifier. The crossover frequency is 160Hz/220Hz/2.2kz.

The frequency response is 25Hz~35kHz (including stealth and ultraflex). The output sound pressure level is 92dB SPL (2.83V/1m) and the nominal impedance is 4Ω. The speaker jack supports bi-wiring. It has external dimensions of 715×428×1,374 mm (width × depth ×height) and weighs 63 kg.

On the crowdfunding site GREENFUNDING, a limited edition model project Japan the first model of the next-generation e-bike “MIXBIKE” “ADO Air 20 MIXBIKE” has been released. In cooperation with ADO, an electrically assisted bicycle manufacturer that is very popular in the EU, this product is tailored to the traffic conditions of Japan that can be used differently from bicycles and electrically assisted bicycles that do not require number registration, and electric motorcycles that require license registration, which are different from conventional 3-way mobility. What is the next-generation e-bike “MIXBIKE”?
It is a next-generation e-bike that fuses three models based on the concept of “bicycle, electric reed, and sometimes moped”. As a bicycle, as an electric assist bicycle, as an electric motorcycle. Japan’s first three-wield electric bicycle (bicycle, electrically assisted bicycle, and moped type) that can run on public roads. The “ADO Air 20 MIXBIKE” to be released this time is a limited edition Japan made for Japan people.

In the past, “all 3-way mobility vehicles with bicycles, electric assist bicycles, and electric motorcycle functions are treated as mopeds, so number registration is always required.” Therefore, even if it can be used as a bicycle, it can only run on the roadway, and it is difficult to use it properly. However, the ADO Air 20 MIXBIKE can be used for bicycles and electric motorcycles that do not require number registration and electric motorcycles that require number registration by removing parts at home. Depending on the application, you can change the style and not be tied to the road you are driving on.

This highly flexible next-generation mobility MIXBIKE is patent-pending and is a new function only for Japan. Of course, even if you are currently unregistered with a license or number, you can use it as an electric motorcycle by obtaining it at a later date.

Features of the ADO Air 20 MIXBIKE

* 3 levels of power with built-in torque detection system, assisted by 350W
* Power battery that can travel up to 170 km with electric assist
* Ultra-lightweight 18.5 kg and foldable, so you can take it to the train with a bicycle bag.
* Hydraulic disc brakes that are comfortable and stop even in adverse conditions
* Carbon belt is used for maintenance-free chainless that prevents clothes from getting tangled
* Equipped with IPX7 compliant IPS color display linked to the app
* Stylish Samsung battery with built-in saddle that can be charged with household power
* Can be equipped with an expanded double battery
* The manufacturer is certified by the international certification standard “SGS standard” and has passed thorough endurance tests.
* The main body can be selected from three colors: ivory, gray, and light blue.

Seiko Prospex Landmaster 30th Anniversary Model

“Seiko Prospex” will release a limited edition of 1,000 pieces of the “Landmaster” model that represents the field watch on Friday, November 10.

The case of this model uses pure titanium with excellent corrosion resistance. In order to further enhance durability and beauty, a diamond shield is applied to the surface. The double rotating bezel with a simple compass, which symbolizes the Landmaster, is also impressive.

The dial expresses the scene of the “highest peak” that adventurers are aiming for with a blue gradation. At high altitudes, where the air is thin and there are no diffuse reflections, the sky above appears dark even during the day. As the altitude gradually shifted to dark blue as if the universe could be seen through, he compared it to the shade of blue that gradually darkened from the 6 o’clock side to the 12 o’clock position of the dial.

The movement is equipped with “Caliber 8L35” made by Shizukuishi Luxury Watch Workshop. High precision and robustness are attractive, and it provides outstanding performance even in harsh environments.

Hublot has announced the new Big Bang Unico Sky Blue Camo. This model combines a sky blue ceramic case with a camouflage dial and rubber strap. Japan sold in a limited edition of 100 bottles.

The camouflage dial and strap combined with a sky blue ceramic case give the Big Bang Unico Sky Blue Camo a unique look. The pop coloring gives a refreshing impression. Automatic winding (Cal. HUB1280). 43 stone. 28,800 vibrations per hour. Power reserve about 72 hours. Ceramic case (diameter 44 mm). Water resistant to 10 ATM. Limited Japan 100 pieces. 3,124,000 yen (tax included).

Color ceramics and camouflage patterns create a unique presence

Hublot has unveiled the new Big Bang Unico Sky Blue Camo. This is a rare model that is sold only 100 pieces Japan.

It is based on the company’s signature Big Bang Unico. The new case material is bright sky blue ceramic, and the dial and strap are decorated with a camouflage pattern. Big Bang Unico has previously released models of green, all-black, and blue camos, and this is the next model to follow them. It can be said that it is one that embodies the brand’s concept of “art of fusion” (fusion of different materials and ideas).

Hublot is one of the brands that actively uses advanced materials. Nowadays, it is not uncommon for brands to use ceramics as case materials, but what makes Hublot stand out is the fact that it started using colored ceramics in 2019. In addition to the standard white and black, there are multiple shades of red, blue, green, etc. based on each. The fact that the number of types is increasing year by year gives a glimpse of the company’s enthusiasm for research and development.

Ceramics are hard and scratch-resistant, but they are also difficult to process. However, it should also be noted that in this work, satin finish and polished finish are effectively used to bring a three-dimensional effect. This highlights the distinctive case structure of the multi-component Big Bang Unico.

The Cal.HUB1280 in this film is Hublot’s own self-winding movement. The chronograph uses a flyback mechanism and boasts high specifications, such as a power reserve of about 72 hours.

Through the gap in the camouflage-patterned dial, you can admire the Cal.HUB1280 of the company’s own automatic movement mounted inside. Since it has a structure with a chronograph mechanism arranged on the dial side, it is possible to enjoy the movement of the column wheel and lever even when worn.

The camouflage pattern of the rubber strap was achieved using vulcanization technology, which the company first adopted in the watch industry in 2019. As a result, each color is clearly developed without blurring.
