Emit 20 is a high-performance standmount speaker derived from our Evoke, Contour i and Confidence series. It gives a stellar combination of detail and punch for small to medium-sized rooms.
We dont use the term authentic fidelity lightly. With Emit 20, thats exactly what youll get: a premium audiophile speaker that astonishes at the price. It might be an entry-level model, but Emit 20 is still crammed with technology that youll find in our other families, right up to the flagship Confidence range and our Core professional reference monitors. Make no mistake: youll experience performance you simply wouldnt expect at this level.
MID/BASS POWER AND CONTROL
Emit 20 uses an 18cm MSP (Magnesium Silicate Polymer) woofer, based on the one weve used in the Evoke series. MSP is a material we developed in-house, and have used for many years on our most renowned models. The cone itself is a one-piece design; the dust-cap is moulded as part of the playing surface, which gives it a solid connection to the voice-coil that moves it back and forth. Youll hear that connection as supreme control and detail in the low and midrange frequencies.
The voice-coil itself is aluminium, wound onto a two-layer glass-fibre former. Weve a long history of using aluminium wire in our voice-coils and for good reason. Its light, so doesnt impede fine movement, and we can get more windings on the former for a given length of wire. That means more BL, or magnetic power. More power means more punch. Weve boosted that further, too, by coating the aluminium wire in copper.
Combined with the stacked ferrite magnet system and new surround, that gives Emit 20s long-throw mid/bass driver all the bass power you could want, even at high volumes, combined with amazing control over midrange frequencies (where instruments such as guitars, vocals and violins reside).
HIGH-LEVEL TWEETER PERFORMANCE
Emit 20 uses the Cerotar tweeter directly from Evoke. Its a 28mm soft-dome design that includes the ingenious Hexis inner-dome device. The coated fabric dome delivers sweet-sounding high frequencies all the openness and detail the artists want you to experience in their recordings while the Hexis smooths the frequency response and reduces unwanted resonance for surprising clarity.
Cerotar is powered by a powerful Ferrite strontium carbonate ceramic magnet system. It gives the tweeter all the power it needs to play loud without breakup while maintaining all the nuance you could want. Even at neighbour-bothering levels.
And because it uses technology from our top-of-the-range Core pro reference speakers (whose users need to listen intently for long periods), you wont get tired when youre in the middle of a long session.
INSIDE THE CROSSOVER
The mid/bass driver and tweeter are marshalled by a custom-designed crossover from the same team who brought you Heritage Special and Core. Our engineers used a hybrid first- and second-order topology for the tweeter and woofer respectively, giving them exceptional control over each drivers behaviour. It means youll hear what the artist wants you to hear, without compromise.
AN IMPRESSIVE FINISH
Emit 20 comes in three custom-designed laminate finishes Black, White and Walnut that beautifully complement the cabinets clean Scandinavian design (conceived in-house at our headquarters in Denmark). Black magnetic grilles come as standard in the box.
Weve even lavished attention on the cover-rings, which hide the mounting screws. Theyre one-piece moulded with the surface finish embedded in the material, which eliminates the need for lacquer so they wont degrade over time.
If you want an audiophile-level standmount speaker for a stereo set-up in medium-size room, or fancy a little more oompf from your rear surround channels, Emit 20 is the ideal choice.
