Description[edit]
Relatively large compact loudspeaker, used in recording studios in addition to home applications. It was even installed for speech transmission in a temple (1 speaker, up to approx. 25 m listening distance). The model was initially developed on special customer request as a rear speaker to the Myro Grand Concert II and represents a further development of the Myro Concert Monitor.
The original design was characterized by Myro-typical rustic and angular shapes. A revision in 2009 rounded off the cabinet shapes and brought them into line with the new Myro Ocean, which is a further development of the Whisky with more competence in the low frequency range.
Concept
- Compact loudspeaker
- Ways: 2
- Housing: Bass reflex
- Dimensions (H x W x D) = 58.4 cm x 21 cm x 37.9 cm
- Impedance: 4 Ohm
- Weight: 17 kg
Original price: 10270 Euro
Equipment
tweeter: Mundorf AMT 2540
Low-mid: Seas Excel W16-NX001
Minimum listening distance: 1,7 m
1.5 m is also possible. When doing so, listen slightly off axis horizontally so that the high frequency level is not above the midrange level. Again, the step response is fine in this case.
Crossover
The Whisky has a double rear wall. In between is the crossover chamber, which is decoupled from the pressure volume. Vibrations of the crossover components and the associated microphonic effects are thus minimized.
Due to the Myro-typical filters there is no classical crossover frequency with the Whisky. The crossover range is around 2 to 4 kHz. The woofers are still involved in the action with a smaller proportion above this. The reproduction of the 3 kHz sine wave (first period, picture) is an interaction of the Air Motion Transformer and the Seas drivers. The measuring signal around 3 kHz is one of the hardest touchstones for loudspeakers, as this frequency range is normally the crossover frequency between midrange and tweeter system.
Extension[edit]
The Whisky can be extended with the bass modules Myro The Rocks.

"I have been working with the myro Whisky speakers for almost a year now and I am still very impressed by their sound qualities. They have a very natural and honest character and bring out even the smallest details and nuances. Especially the spatial imaging of different instruments in the mix is absolutely top class."'

"Exceptional is the loudspeaker Whisky by Myro in design and sound. Effortless and independent of the style of music, the reproduction impresses with its assured transparency. Panorama and virtual depth are to be felt decidedly, the sound colours are reproduced unadulterated. This is especially helpful when adjusting filters. Since the development of the loudspeaker takes into account the time conditions of the reproduction, the settings of a compressor are easy to understand acoustically and to optimize. Characteristic is the pleasant treble reproduction, the used tweeter impresses with low distortion. Decisive for the use in the studio is finally the transfer of the heard and achieved sound results to the variety of systems outside the studio island.
