About AirBlade HYPE
The AirBlade transducer is a technological masterpiece consisting of over 150 precision-engineered parts. Its powerful magnet structure drives a diaphragm of merely 3 grams that covers an area of 19200mm², equivalent to 37 x 1" tweeters!
Continuous directivity
The AirBlade membrane is based on a modified Air Motion Transformer principle where a foil submerged in a strong magnetic film is put in motion in a push-pull fashion. This modified AMT features curved membrane layers that enable the transducer to maintain identical Frequency Response on-axis and off-axis over a 180° angle, minimising the sweet-spot issue and delivering a true wide-stage sound reproduction.
Built-in adjustable crossover
The AirBlade HYPE cabinet houses an adjustable crossover network with high quality Elma rotary switches to enable seamless integration with a wide range of loudspeakers. 4 crossover frequencies and 5 levels allow effortless tuning of the add-on unit depending on the efficiency and timbre of the main speaker.

- crossover based on Mundorf MCap EVO Aluminium Oil capacitors
