Optimising acoustics
Synthetic diamond’s acoustic properties make it ideal for sound reproduction. In a loudspeaker a surface is vibrated to make the air vibrate and generate sound. A synthetic diamond tweeter dome is very light and stiff, and by generating sound reproduction of up to a frequency of at least 70 kHz, it ensures that the sound that is heard is perfect.
Working in close partnership with one of the world’s greatest names in hi-fi speakers, Bowers & Wilkins, our Element Six Technologies Division perfected making synthetic diamond into complex geometric shapes, including domes of the required thickness for unsurpassed sound reproduction. We worked alongside Bowers & Wilkins in the development of synthetic diamond tweeter domes for their flagship B&W 800 Series – what they call the quest for perfection in sound reproduction.
