A customer (Apollo owner) pointed me to this conversation. I design and build Arion speakers in the USA.

Just to clarify a few points: We design and build our AMT drivers in-house in the USA. They have very high sensitivity. Our Apollo line arrays are extended range and have been tested from 80 Hz to 24 KHz. We chose to use a minimum crossover frequency of 120 Hz for a number of reasons so we rate the line arrays from 120 Hz to 24 KHz.

Each woofer cabinet (module) contains two 10" long throw dynamic drivers. They are an open baffle design. Each driver is in its own chamber. They are loaded independently as are both sides of each driver. They have a usable range of 20 Hz to about 240 Hz. We use them in our Apollos from 20 Hz to 120 Hz. In some cases, we use a higher crossover like 150 Hz or 180 Hz.

Most of our speakers are active systems. We use digital crossovers with room correction for a variety of reasons. Our processor allows the owner to use the amplifiers of their choice.

Our new website should be live in about a weeks. There will be more info there.
