Revolutionary Driver Technology

At the heart of the OBi MAX is the high-performance Duopole 313510 wideband driver, which measures an impressive 31 cm in height. This driver has propelled AudioNec to the forefront of high-end sound reproduction, showcasing its remarkable capabilities. The Duopole driver is complemented by two 15-inch low-frequency drivers arranged in a d’Appolito configuration, which skillfully manages the bass range. Additionally, a horn-loaded dome super tweeter is incorporated to ensure pristine high-frequency delivery, making the OBi MAX a well-rounded audio powerhouse. A no-compromise high-end passive crossover further enhances the listening experience, ensuring that every note is delivered with precision.

A Live Music Experience

One of the standout features of the OBi MAX is its extraordinary ability to recreate live music with stunning accuracy. This speaker immerses listeners in a concert-like atmosphere, where both macro and micro details are delivered naturally and effortlessly. The OBi MAX offers a perfectly balanced sound profile, catering to even the most discerning listeners. Regardless of room size, the OBi MAX can effortlessly fill large spaces with rich, vibrant sound, even at high volumes, making it an ideal choice for any setting.

The Legacy of DuoPole™ 31

The DuoPole™ 31 driver is not just a technological marvel; it has a rich history as the original driver in AudioNec’s EVO loudspeakers, first unveiled at the prestigious High-End show in Munich in 2019. This wideband driver covers frequencies from 400 Hz to 10 kHz, effectively reproducing all instruments with authentic scale and presence. The OBi MAX showcases the DuoPole’s exceptional power handling and responsiveness, ensuring that the lightning-fast attacks of a drum kit or the subtle nuances of a violin are rendered without any loss. With an impressive efficiency of 97 dB, the DuoPole™ 31 elevates the listening experience to new heights.

Unmatched Low-Frequency Performance

The OBi MAX is equipped with four 15-inch woofers per pair, meticulously designed for open-baffle applications. These woofers are capable of reaching as low as 20 Hz, with a -6dB point at 30 Hz. This design allows the OBi MAX to deliver deep, strong, and clean bass that is not only controlled but also articulate and dynamic. The perfectly integrated and neutral bass response enables realistic and emotional sound reproduction, immersing the listener in the very soul of the music. This level of bass performance is what sets exceptional speaker systems apart from the ordinary.
