ESTELON EXTREME MK II FLAGSHIP LOUDSPEAKER

High-end Estonian loudspeaker brand, Estelon, has launched the new Estelon Extreme Mk II flagship loudspeaker.

After updating the Estelon classics series to Mk II and launching a limited Anniversary Edition of the Forza model, Estelon has now refined its most luxurious high-end loudspeaker having incorporated a significant number of advancements in the same signature form.

The Estelon  Extreme Mk II includes everything that Alfred Vassilkov (Estelon’s Chief Designer and Co-founder) has learned during his 35 years of experience. The unique two-module design of the over 2 meters tall loudspeaker allows the user to adjust the height of the upper part as well as the depth of the tweeter in order to achieve optimal performance in any room. Furthermore, it isolates the upper drivers from the vibration created by the woofers.

ESTELON EXTREME MKII TWO-TONE FINISHES

The new Estelon Extreme Mk II is being offered in new and exciting, two-tone, ultra-premium high-gloss finishes: Midnight Opera, Bronze Royale, Lunar Eclipse, and Nordic Emerald. The form of the cabinet and the proprietary marble-based composite material provides the ideal setting for the speakers’ components. The shape provides the unique visual aesthetics for which Estelon is known, but having no parallel walls also helps prevent unwanted resonances.

ACCUTON DRIVERS

The Estelon Extreme Mk II sports a new 168 mm (7 inches) ceramic membrane midrange driver with CELL technology from Accuton. The new 25 mm (1 inch) diamond membrane Accuton tweeter can reproduce sounds up to 60 kHz with, it is claimed, no distortions in the human hearing range. In addition, the new Extreme Mk II contains an upgraded crossover network that integrates new and improved inductors, capacitors, and resistors, all utilizing Estelon’s new proprietary direct connection techniques. The internal wiring of the speakers is accomplished through the use of top-of-the-line Kubala-Sosna pure copper cabling.

NEW PACKAGING

The newly designed packing system allows the Extreme Mk II to ship fully assembled, making the installation process very easy. The movement systems of the new Extreme Mk II have been designed and built from scratch out of precision-milled and 3D printed components and they enable wireless control of the adjustments.

DIRECT COUPLING TERMINAL CONNECTORS

Through the Extreme Mk II, Estelon introduces for the first time its custom-designed direct coupling terminal connectors. All unnecessary metal-to-metal transitions have been eliminated, and there are no large dimension conductors that enable degrading effects of circulating currents. The Estelon proprietary connectors accept banana, spade, or bare wire termination.
