Serhan Swift - MU2 MK II Special Edition - Bookshelf Speakers
Introducing the MU2 Mk II Special Edition : A Revolutionary High-Fidelity Loudspeaker
The mu2 Mk II is not merely a facelift – it is a completely re-engineered loudspeaker that raises the benchmark for premium audio. Available in high quality matt black or matt white finishes, every element – from the cabinet and woofer to the tweeter and crossover – has been meticulously re-examined and significantly improved.
Unrivalled Component Enhancements
-
Enhanced Drivers:
Although the woofer and tweeter retain a familiar appearance, they now offer an even flatter response, smoother roll-off, and considerably lower distortion. These refinements ensure pristine sound quality across the entire frequency range. -
Advanced Crossover Design:
Thousands more hours of listening tests and measurements have led to a crossover that delivers an almost seamless transition from on-axis to off-axis performance. This high-order design effectively confines each driver to its ideal power band while minimising out-of-band distortion. -
Revolutionary Cabinet Construction:
The new multi-layer cabinet construction employs additional layers of carefully selected materials, chosen for their composition and thickness. This design dramatically reduces cabinet noise and vibration, minimising energy storage and unwanted colouration. Reinforced bracing further enhances stability and sound purity.
Innovative Design Philosophy – “5 Days to Conceive, 5 Years to Perfect”
After five years of rigorous R&D and component testing, Serhan Swift pinpointed the optimal drivers: a bass-midrange woofer and a ring-radiator tweeter from Scan-speak’s premium Revelator series. These high-end drivers, typically reserved for speakers costing over $50K from brands like Wilson Audio and Sonus faber, are now integrated into the mu2 Mk II. Extensive experimentation with crossover configurations led to the adoption of a high-order crossover, which, despite its higher component cost, delivers markedly improved audible performance.
Precision Hand-Wired Crossovers and Premium Connectivity
Bass and treble crossovers are separately hand wired, point-to-point, and silver soldered onto robust 5mm thick high-density substrates, with micro vibration control measures further reducing unwanted noise and distortion. Complementing this meticulous craftsmanship are Cardas brand terminals – crafted from high purity copper with rhodium plating – ensuring reliable, long-lasting connectivity.
Crafted for Excellence
Every pair of mu2 Mk II loudspeakers is the result of three days of dedicated craftsmanship under the watchful eyes of Chief Loudspeaker Designer Brad Serhan and Engineering Director Morris Swift. Each unit undergoes final testing and is hand-signed by these experts, affirming its status as a long-term investment in superior sound quality.
Experience the evolution in high-fidelity audio with the mu2 Mk II – where cutting-edge engineering meets timeless craftsmanship for an unrivalled listening experience.
