Key Features

1. Perfect 100 Degrees of Horizontal Dispersion:
   • HR5 monitors provide an exceptional 100 degrees of horizontal dispersion, ensuring a consistent and balanced sound no matter where you are in the room.
   • Offers the largest sweet spot of any speaker system available, allowing multiple listeners to experience the same tonal qualities and balance.
2. Ocean Way Technology:

3. Efficient Constant Directivity Horns:
   • HF and mid-band constant directivity horns, milled out of solid nonresonant wood blocks, offer greater efficiency compared to conventional direct radiators.
   • Low distortion even at high volume levels, requiring half the power of conventional direct radiating components.
4. Natural Sound without Coloration:
   • The true constant directivity nature of the horns, along with unique driving elements and construction, results in a natural sound without any trace of harshness or coloration.
   • The HF section utilizes a 1-inch silk dome with an aluminum voice coil and a large magnetic structure for lower distortion.
5. Smooth Transition Between Ranges:
   • Each HF and LF component can deliver excellent performance above and below their crossover points, ensuring a smooth transition between all ranges.
   • Exact physical time alignment and horns with identical flare rates provide a virtually perfect transition between components.
