Beautiful drivers of high precision and high quality
Please take a look at the beautiful finish of these beautiful drivers. While many speaker manufacturers are moving to mass production, Mark Fenlon maintains a strong commitment to superior craftsmanship, manufacturing nearly all of its models in its own lab and factory. This passion for quality, reminiscent of the best of Japanese audio manufacturing in the 80s and 90s, is present in every detail. Compared to drivers from other manufacturers, Markaudio's high precision and quality can be seen even in the bonding of the front edge, which is carefully and meticulously assembled with the utmost care.
Rectangular wire voice coil
Rectangular copper wire is used for the voice coil, which is 30% more efficient than round wire in terms of conversion efficiency in a magnetic field, enabling the weight of the drive (MMD) to be reduced. The MMD is made of fiberglass and ABS. In addition, the chassis is made of a mixture of glass fiber and ABS resin, and the magnets are wrapped in a rubber cover to dampen resonance noise transmitted to the magnets.
MAOP (Micro-Arc Oxidation Process Cone)
Strong field oxidation crystallization process
This is the name of the surface treatment for the matte-like, low-luster surface that is a feature of the MAOP series.
This process involves immersing alloy cones in an alkaline electrolytic solution with a very high voltage (700 V) for an extended period of time (1-2 weeks) to oxidize the surface and form crystals. This process changes the surface of the cone into a crystalline body with numerous flexible bubbles (with many holes), as shown in the photo. (This method changes the cone itself and is not a coating, so there is almost no increase in mass.)
You can see numerous small crystalline bodies and air holes that look like the surface of a sponge. The piles of metal and air holes created by this several-week process make the reproduced sound natural.
The new material, dumped by the cone, generates a micro-resonance pattern that passes over the surface of the metal diaphragm, a groundbreaking invention that achieves a damping effect similar to that of a pulp diaphragm.
