The R Series benefits directly from the technological innovations developed for The Reference, the flagship series that continually sets the bar for loudspeakers and sound reproduction. Incorporating distinct technologies, the R Series delivers outstanding sonic performance. Breakthrough metamaterial absorption technology1 (MATTM) has been incorporated into the latest version of the R Series, and the 12th generation Uni-Q® driver array has been fine-tuned to maximize the impact of advances this technology and ensures the best possible performance.

When combined, the channels act like an audio black hole, absorbing 99% of unwanted sound from behind the tweeter, eliminating distortion and delivering clear, natural audio performance. more natural.
12th generation Uni-Q®
The exclusive 12th Gen Uni-Q driver array with the MAT is found in all seven R-Series models and delivers incredibly detailed performance. It is the result of decades of accumulated in-house knowledge and the application of state-of-the-art simulation and analysis tools. There are many developments and they all contribute to the outstanding performance of the R series.
The Uni-Q driver array has been redesigned to maximize the performance improvements offered by MAT. The tapered waveguide combines the tweeter dome with a new metamaterial absorber that has been specifically designed for its depth-based custom-engineered driver.
The ultra-low distortion midrange motor design uses a copper ring embedded in the motor's air gap to minimize inductance and variation in inductance with winding position. This reduces mid-range THD and reduces thermal compression, which improves efficiency.
