Ideal Match for MP300 Speakers for Front/Left/Right Speakers
M&K Sound invented the Tripole® speaker configuration to do what no conventional surround loudspeaker can do. The installation of side and/or rear mounted S300T’s enhances the solidity and pin-point placement of rear channel events such as fly-overs, voices, effects, music etc., as well as the realism of the ambient soundfield.
The S300T Tripole® with integral wall-mount bracket, employs the same front drivers and crossover technology as the S300, for a perfect acoustic match.
Independent, isolated side chambers house two 4” drivers per side for optimal surround coverage that rivals the huge array of speakers required in movie theatres.
The object of the surround speaker is to expand the ambient soundfield created by using identical speakers across the front left, right and centre speakers and trying to continue this approach to the side and rear. With tripoles placed at the side of the listening position you create not only a focus point for pin-point effects but with drivers at each side firing up and down the room, it replicates an array of surround speakers you would normally find in a large auditorium. Plus in a sub/sat system you are also not worrying about the lower frequencies so can concentrate on voicing the speakers the same as the front channels so there is a cohesive tone and realism to the ambient soundfield and effects. With the S300T the same driver and tweeters from the MP300 are utilized for the front of the tripole and to the sides are a further two 4-inch drivers per side. The cabinet is also identical in construction method as the MP300 but with the addition of isolated chambers for each of the six drive units and careful attention is taken to voice the S300T with the MP300. With the side drive units a small network is used to ensure that the side driver closest to the front tweeter does not interfere with dispersion of that tweeter.
