Myro "Mundorf" Series
Description
The "Mundorf" series is not an official designation, but serves as a classification of models that - typical of a series - were designed to build on each other and were produced at the same time. They followed the models of the Myro Concert Series and all use the Mundorf AMT 2540i and further chassis from Seas.
Mundorf 2540i
Seas
In the early 2000s, an Air Motion Transformer (AMT) was first used sporadically by Myro. This was later done again on Myro Concert Series models and by ESS as part of an entire series. Finally, the AMT was used for the last time in the models mentioned below and in the Myro Time 2, before high-quality domes from Accuton made of new ceramic and diamond material with even shorter settling time, much higher resonance frequency and less steep phase response could replace them.
The models differ among themselves in the diaphragm area and thus above all in the low-frequency quality. While Whisky and Ocean allow best reproduction even in small rooms, see minimum listening distance, the Time 1 needs larger rooms to unfold.
Dispersion
Characteristic for all models are also the strictly symmetrical arrangement and control of the drivers, the very linear phase (also in the transient) as well as the elaborately designed fillets of the cabinets to optimize the radiation pattern and to exclude secondary sound sources. Due to this symmetrical design one midrange / bass driver compensates the behaviour of the other in interaction with the tweeter, so that the vertical dispersion behaviour turns out much more even in a certain range and also the signal structure, i.e. the step responses, look surprisingly better than with conventionally stacked drivers like in the Myro Concert Series. The quality of the signal, and not only the energetic bundling, is also of elementary importance for the quality and intelligibility of the reflections. The reflections then sound more like original sound and less like loudspeakers,
more like the original room and less like the listening room. With impulse-accurate, phase-linear conversion, small distance of the acoustic centres of the drivers to each other and a correspondingly designed transition area, a homogeneous range (impulse / phase / step response) of +/- 10° to 15° can be achieved vertically. At a listening distance of 3 m you can lie on the sofa or sit upright on a chair at the dining table. And even at dispersion angles beyond that, the converted signal structures are closer to the original structure than with non-pulse accurate conversion.
On the other hand, the horizontal dispersion pattern exhibits a slightly stronger directivity when the drivers are symmetrical and driven, depending on the overall height of the driver array, which is advantageous under living room conditions. This reduces early, strong reflections from lateral surfaces.
Focusing in the midrange and presence is fantastically even, indicating balanced phase responses and still exceptionally good step responses. The resulting quality of the first early reflections is outstanding.
The drivers used are exceptionally low distortion, so that two of these Seas Excel drivers with 94 cm² diaphragm area each and +/- 7 mm linear excursion can play loud and with low distortion. The Mundorf AMT with its very large diaphragm and highly efficient transducer principle complements this behaviour perfectly.
