Planar Magnetic Loudspeakers and Ribbon Tweeters
Planar magnetic drivers and ribbon tweeters have many advantages over traditional dynamic speakers. Their large diaphragms only require the slightest amount of movement (excursion) and allow them to create the same sound as an ordinary speaker.
They also have dipolar radiation patterns, meaning they radiate equally in front and behind the speaker.
High-Resolution Sound
They are known for producing precise, clear sounds. They are renowned for their ability to produce high-resolution sound and reveal subtle nuances in music that other drivers are unable to reproduce or show.
In addition to their incredible accuracy In addition to their impressive accuracy, ribbon and planar drivers provide superior sound staging that allow them to create an expansive soundstage with exceptional clarity. Audiophiles as well as home theater enthusiasts and audiophiles will find them be a great option.
The most notable feature of ribbon and planar drivers is their dipole radiation pattern, that emits equal energy front and rear with inverted phase to create an authentic and spacious soundstage. This, along with their broad dispersion, makes them suitable for large rooms, as they can fill the room with a an expansive and natural soundstage, without causing unnatural reflections off the furniture and walls.
Planar magnetic drivers have a quick response time which allows them to reproduce transients more precisely and quickly than cone drivers. This produces a clear and detailed sound even at high frequencies.
Another advantage of planar magnetic drivers is their low distortion. This is due to the fact that they don't employ a voice coil, but an electrostatic field. This allows the diaphragms to move without causing vibrations that could cause distortion.
A planar driver also has a larger gap between the magnets than cone speakers. This provides a higher bass and a better frequency response even at low levels of amplitude.
While the benefits of planar magnetic drivers appeal to you but they do have a few limitations that need to be considered. For instance, they could be expensive and require more power than other types of speakers. They are also heavy, making difficult to fit into certain spaces. Furthermore, they can be sensitive to the sound of the room and require extensive room treatments to ensure optimal performance. There are several ways to alleviate these issues for example, by putting an attenuation resistor (provided by your speakers) in the attenuation position, or by performing some type of room treatment.
Wide Dispersion
Planar magnetic speakers also produce sound by regulating electrical currents that travel through wires that are suspended between magnets. They vibrate a flat surface directly, instead of using an electrostatic charge. This results in greater surface area and better precision. This operational principle also allows for the construction of them into smaller, more affordable speakers and headphones than electrostatic models.
Planar drivers are not just able to disperse sound well they also offer better image and clarity at higher frequencies. This is a great benefit for audiophiles who enjoy watching music or films on a large screen or in a large open space.
Moreover the planar drivers can also produce deep bass since they can be augmented with boxed woofers which are attached to or separated from the diaphragm that resembles a ribbon. This is in contrast to traditional cone speaker woofers, which are typically located in the bottom of the cabinet, a location that cannot reproduce bass frequencies due to the physical constraints of the enclosure for Planar Magnetic Drivers the woofer.
Another benefit of the planar driver is that it has exceptionally low distortion, which is directly related to the size and the excursion of the diaphragm that resembles a ribbon. A planar speaker is able to create a large volume of sound without distortion. This is the reason that the sound quality is so clear and detailed.
In comparison, the dynamic drivers used in traditional headphones and speakers typically exhibit significant amounts of distortion when driven to the limit of extreme excursion. Dynamic drivers can create a hollow or boomy sound.
Additionally, planar magnetic drivers are also extremely efficient. They consume less energy to drive, resulting in a reduced energy consumption and a less negative impact on the environment. Furthermore, their diaphragms typically made of lighter materials than standard speakers, which reduces the amount of energy needed to propel them to produce the desired sound pressure.
Many audiophiles have heard of speakers made of ribbon and planar like those produced by Magnepan Infinity and Apogee Acoustics. However, there is a brand new on the market. New planar loudspeakers made by companies like Clarisys Audio and Diptyque, for instance, are incorporating the latest advances in ribbon technology.
Low Distortion
Planar magnetic speakers have very low distortion due to the fact that they don't use the conventional cone or dome-shaped diaphragm. This is due to their unique design, which eliminates the voice coil inductance that is common to dynamic driver drivers for speakers. (See U.S. patent 6,353,560). This results in the diaphragm not being out of phase with its surroundings magnetic field, resulting in an unchanging output level. Distortion is generally only noticeable when large waveforms are reproduced. With a single-ended planar magnetic driver, distortion is almost absent at frequencies above bass.
In addition to their extremely low distortion they also offer extremely high efficiency. This allows the drive to operate with a lesser amount of power than is normally required for other speaker technologies. This translates into lower costs of ownership and a lower energy consumption.
Planar magnetic drivers also have a significantly lower distortion than traditional dynamic speakers and even less than electrostatic speakers. This is due to the fact that a planar magnet driver's flat diaphragm features an electrical conductor trace that lets it to react to magnetic fields generated on either side.
The two magnets must be placed so that the voice element is in the magnetic field at optimum levels throughout the time. This allows magnetic drivers with planar design to operate in a linear manner across all frequencies higher than bass.
Planar magnetic drivers have many other advantages they offer, but the main advantage is that they can be designed as either dipoles (radiating in opposite phases and equally behind and in front of the speaker, similar to an ESL) or monopoles (radiating in the direction of travel and more like traditional dynamic speakers). This permits a wide range of designs, especially when paired with the ribbon-tweeter.
Many planar magnetic loudspeakers can be found today from companies like Hifiman, Dan Clark, Audeze, and Planar magnetic drivers Fostex. Each company has a signature sound that results from their patented driver designs and other engineering innovations. The commonality among these speakers is their astonishing quality, dynamic, and their controlled control of directivity.
High Power Handling
Planar magnetic speakers can handle a lot more power than traditional dynamic moving coil drivers without the tension and strain they may cause. The "voice coil" is not squeezed into the narrow space between the baskets and cones like in traditional dynamic drivers. Instead it is spread out over more of a large area. This gives the voice coil an increased surface area to help disperse heat efficiently.
Another reason that planar drivers can handle so much power is because they have an extremely low mass when as compared to conventional drivers. Dynamic drivers use diaphragms made of heavy, thick material that are several orders of magnitude larger and thicker than diaphragms made of ultra-light and thin materials used in planar magnetic drivers. Because of their high mass, these diaphragms require a much larger amount of force to move between them (a measure called excursion) to produce an equal amount of sound pressure.
They can't be driven nearly as hard as a planar magnet driver, because the voice coil will begin to produce significant distortion. Therefore, it is essential to purchase loudspeakers that are rated for the amplifier you intend to use.
A planar magnetic driver's high excursion allows it to create more soundstages than conventional drivers. This is because the diaphragm itself vibrates to create a flat, even wavefront rather than the more focused spherical wavefront common in conventional drivers. This larger soundstage also increases the precision and clarity of the speakers which allows them to reproduce more subtle nuances and more complex sounds.
