In his review
of the Sampan, Dr. Jeff Rabin noted that,
"Even
a respected Lowther cabinet builder ... said he could not believe
the quantity and quality of bass that was being reproduced from
such a slim little cabinet."
and that,
"I heard
through the Sampans music and ... imaging to die for, and a speaker
disappearing act that I wouldn't have believed possible."
Imagine, the dual transmission line Sampan DTL
has twice the bass output of the Sampan, and the same incredable
imaging, in a cabinet that is the same four inches wide, and
only four inches taller and 2.5 inches deeper than the Sampan. |
The Design of the Sampan DTL is informed by the
design of the Enterprise and the Sampan loudspeakers.
The Sampan DTL uses two 3.5 inch drivers and two transmission
lines (like the Enterprise) in a cabinet that is only 2.5 inches
deeper than the Sampan to deliver riveting dynamic performance
with an unbelievable quantity of superb deep bass. Think of it
as producing double the output of the amazing Sampan micro tower.
Instead of using crossovers that can sap up current and lead
to sonic anomalies to integrate and flatten the response of the
drivers, we take the very novel approach of using two different
full range drivers with frequency response curves that complement
each other and transmission line bass loading to provide extremely
linear full range response from 35 Hz to 20 kHz +/- 3.5 dBs and
a sensitivity of 92 dB.
The Sampan DTL is a time coherent, minimum phase, point source
design. It frequency response covers the audible sound spectrum.
Because of the Sampan DTL's full-range, dual transmission line
design, in most cases a subwoofer will not be needed, especially
when the Sampan DTL is used in stereo systems in medium and smaller
rooms.
The svelte design and incredable
dynamic performance of the Sampan DTL also make it well suited
for use with today's flat screen TVs in home theater systems.
Its dimensions are an amazing 4 inches wide by 6.25 inches deep
by 41 inches high. Combined with a small subwoofer, such as the
NSM Model EXP, the Sampan DTL makes a compelling home theater
audio system visually and sonically in either a 2.1 or 5.1 system.
