Ness Ziona, Israel; June 18, 2007 -- Morel, one of the world’s foremost sound driver manufacturers since 1975, announced the release of the SoundSpot SI-1 MKII satellite speaker and Encore MKII surround home theater speaker system. Sold in over 55 countries worldwide, these new offerings are part of Morel’s commitment to bring audiophile sound to the mid-market.
Says Oren Mordechai, Executive Vice-President, “This attractive, discreet speaker and home theater system leverage Morel’s proprietary acoustic technologies to deliver our renowned sound quality and sophisticated chic design. They are yet another achievement in Morel’s goal of making high-end sound and cinema experience affordable for a broader section of the market.”
Housed in a 5-¼” mild steel sphere enclosure, the SI-1 MKII speaker is based on Morel’s award-winning Integra driver, which leverages a coaxially integrated semi-soft tweeter and 4" mid/bass, utilizing both neodymium and double ferrite magnet motors.
The Encore MKII 5.1 Home Theater System matches five of the satellite speakers with the SoundSub 9, a 9” active reflex loaded subwoofer that supplies the rich bass sound.
Offered at $1499 retail, and available in exquisitely-finished, durable black, silver and white, the Encore MKII system is an exceptional value, delivering sound quality that will not disappoint even the aficionados. An acoustically matched center channel, consisting of two 5¼" woofer units and a wide-range tweeter, and attractive, sturdy floor stands are also available. All come with Morel’s standard 5-year parts and labor warranty.
As one reviewer stated, “I wasn’t expecting either the dynamic capability or the transient response of this system to be so good. I’ve heard few speaker systems that were able to do this, and certainly none in this size and price range.”
