Benwin Introduces Gx-6, Latest Addition To Its Award-Winning Flat Panel Speaker Line
The new GX-6, Benwinís latest laser-designed flat panel speaker system, joins its growing flat panel line. Benwinís other flat panel speakers include the award-winning EX-4 (recipient of Business Weekís 1999 IDSA Product of the Year), and the worldís first flat panel speaker, the BW2000, introduced at COMDEX í98 and featured in Business Week, Fortune, CNN.com, ABC News and others. The 21st century look and audio quality of the GX-6 is further enhanced by the use of aerospace panel materials. GX-6 is designed using 2nd generation NXT flat panel speaker technology giving it a higher efficiency and extended frequency response than previous models. It also features a much larger and more powerful subwoofer than previous models. The unique design and 360? dispersion characteristics provide high quality stereo even with random placement of the satellites resulting in easy integration into the workspace. The power, bass and virtual surround controls are located on one satellite and the control knobs are textured for easy manipulation. With the virtual surround mode enabled, realistic 3D effects enhance any audio signal. Using NXT technology, there is no speaker cone, so the actual speaker is half as thin as a credit card. This enables all Benwin flat panel speakers to look dramatically different than conventional cone-type speakers. The GX-6 is the second NXT multimedia speaker to incorporate a laminated monolith diaphragm. This involves the construction of directional composites and resin that are finally coated in an enamel epoxy developed by the aerospace industry. Upon final assembly each unit is measured by a scanning laser vibrometer to ensure exact diaphragm placement, DML operation and QC of frequency response and sound quality parameters. The GX-6 is the second NXT-technology product to be designed completely using computer modeling and advanced stereo lithography. This results in improved design, reduced prototype costs, reduces the time to market by nearly 60 days, and most important to the retailer and consumer, dramatically reduces manufacturing costs. The Benwin GX-6 flat panel speaker system has an MSRP of under $179.99 though street pricing may be considerably less. The EX-4 and GX-6 are the worldís first NXT-approved flat panel speaker designed and engineered in the United States. Conventional speakers employ a cone that moves in and out in a rapid,piston-like action to create sound. The rigid panels in the Benwin Speakers are actuated in three planes by an electrical current that creates a complex series of vibrations spread uniformly over the panel, eliminating hot spots and providing a uniform sound over a wide area. The technology was an evolutionary design by British aeronautical engineers who were seeking ways to make jet engine cockpits quieter. Benwin products are available through Dell, CompUSA, Fryís, MicroCenter, PC Mall and Mac Mall as well as others. They can also be seen at www.benwin.com.
