HB 2
The HB2 is a large, 2-way, ported design featuring a 165mm Kevlar bass / mid driver and a 25mm
Aluminium Dome Tweeter. It has a substantial cabinet with an integral driver support brace providing mechanical grounding for the bass unit and a vertical, asymmetrically positioned, 'figure of eight' brace to minimize and control resonance in the larger panels. The front baffle is a 34mm laminated MDF sandwich which contributes to the exceptional strength of the cabinet and provides a solid platform for both drive units.
Gold plated, bi-wireable input terminals and a hard wired crossover network featuring simple first order filters also contributes to its explosive dynamic capability, effortless reproduction of instrument timbre, and magnificent stereo imaging.
It is recommended for use on heavy 450mm stands and will work optimally when placed 250mm or more from a rear wall.
The HB2 excels in its angelic and sassy treatment of classical, jazz and rock arrangements. You will find it hard to beat.

..the bass stays punchy and taut, helping to reproduce fast moving tunes such as Beverly Knight's 'Greatest Day' with verve and drive. The midrange enjoys the clarity and insight that so endeared the smaller HB1's to us making it easy to appreciate Knight's powerful vocals, as it does the instrumental interplay in Stravinsky's 'Rites of Spring'...
