The PreSonus Sceptre S6 is the company's next-gen 2-way studio monitor. Hear the Difference The first time you hear Sceptre-series CoActual 2-way studio monitors, you ll discover fine nuances of your music that can t be reproduced by conventional designs. The Sceptre s panoramic soundstage, fine detail, and stunning dynamics will astonish you. The Coaxial Conundrum Coaxial designs offer the advantages of a single point source for a consistent acoustic center and a symmetrical dispersion pattern. But designing coaxial systems without acoustic anomalies has been extremely expensive until now. Solving the problems involved in coaxial designs requires massive amounts of DSP and subtle, sophisticated transducer design, which is why such systems have, in the past, been limited to very high-end systems with external processors. However, Fulcrum Acoustic s amazing, cutting-edge technology has allowed us to overcome the usual design problems of coaxial systems while taking advantage of coaxial s unique properties. Thanks to custom transducers and TQ algorithms designed by Fulcrum s Dave Gunness, Sceptre CoActual monitors deliver clarity and coherence that has previously only been available in ultra-high-end systems. Multi-way, non-coaxial speaker designs have long been the way to go in speaker applications. But they suffer from the changing relationship between the listener and the speaker elements: When you move around in the coverage area, the sound is inconsistent. Even more troublesome, the crossover point between the drivers can sometimes be audible. Symmetrical dispersion pattern from a single point source.Asymmetrical dispersion pattern from two separate sources. Coaxial systems solve this by having the drivers on the same axis, thus providing a single point source for a consistent acoustic center. This results in symmetry of response on both the horizontal and vertical axis, at any given angle. The crossover transition is seamless (inaudible) at all angles. (By symmetry, we mean that whatever response is observed at a given angle with respect to the axis, the same response will be observed at that angle in the opposite direction. The loudspeaker s behavior is mirrored about its axis.) Non-coaxial loudspeakers cannot exhibit this symmetry. All of which is great for coaxials, in theory yet very few companies have successfully marketed coaxial studio monitors, and only a few very expensive models are considered to be truly of professional caliber. That s because coaxial designs are fiendishly difficult to get right. The challenges are complex and, to date, impossible to solve with acoustic design alone. Making it work at high sound-pressure levels is especially difficult. Fortunately, a company called Fulcrum Acoustic developed a solution based on a sophisticated combination of driver design and signal processing that we ll discuss in the section The Magic of TQ . This eventually led to PreSonus Sceptre-series monitors (and also to PreSonus StudioLive AI-series PA speakers). Meet Dave Gunness Here s the speaker-design genius who solved the coaxial conundrum. Dave Gunness is Fulcrum Acoustic s Vice President of R&D, lead product designer, photographer, technical writer, and lead coffeemaker. While at the University of Wisconsin, Gunness covered part of his expenses by singing and playing guitar over loudspeakers of his own construction. Upon graduation, he made a living as a pro loudspeaker designer at Electro-Voice and later at Eastern Acoustic Works (EAW). Gunness holds five patents and writes technology white papers, many published by the Audio Engineering Society. The KF900 large-scale sound-reinforcement system, the DSA digitally steered array, and a suite of innovative processing techniques marketed as Gunness Focusing are all consequences of his career-long emphasis on improving loudspeaker performance with innovative software tools and DSP. These days, he spends his time designing products and inventing new technology applications. Sometimes they let him out of his office to get a little sunlight and fresh water. The Sceptre and our StudioLive AI PA loudspeakers utilize a lot of technology acoustical know-how, DSP algorithms, user controls, and more and were the result of collaboration between Dave Gunness and PreSonus engineering team. But the speaker magic is all Gunness. We speak his name with reverence at PreSonus! The Magic of TQ Each Sceptre monitor contains a DSP chip that enables the use of Fulcrum Acoustic s TQ algorithms. The result is speakers that deliver the full benefits of coaxial design. No driver is perfect, nor can a driver be made perfect with hardware alone; there are always compromises in physical systems. To overcome these driver compromises, many speaker manufacturers apply DSP in the form of a combination of multiband EQs but the processing i
