Design and Construction:
The Duke speakers boast a dual enclosure design, with the upper enclosure housing a 1.2-inch dimple dome tweeter and a 6-inch midrange made from papyrus fibres, aimed at delivering better linearity in frequency and phase response. The cabinets are constructed from heavily braced 25mm MDF with a 44mm MDF baffle, finished in thick veneers of American Oak or American Walnut, and a piano black or white baffle option.
They incorporate Hulgich Audio’s proprietary technologies like Low Diffraction Baffle Technology (LDBT) for smooth frequency response both on- and off-axis, Coherent Sound Technology (CST) for driver time alignment and phase integration, and Impedance Correction Circuit Technology (ICCT) for better compatibility with amplifiers.
Drivers and Crossover:
The speakers use SB Acoustics Satori drivers exclusively, known for their quality and performance. The midrange and woofer are made with Norex paper cones coated with Egyptian papyrus, enhancing stiffness and reducing distortion. The crossover is carefully designed with components from Jantzen and Mundorf to ensure consistent sound reproduction.
Technical Specifications:
Frequency Response: 25Hz – 23kHz
Sensitivity: 88 dB
Nominal Impedance: 4 ohms, which makes them compatible with a wide range of amplifiers, including both valve and solid-state designs.
Sound Quality:
Reviews highlight the Duke’s balanced and believable sound, with excellent detail retrieval, tonality, imaging, and soundstaging. They are noted for their non-fatiguing sound and a large, coherent soundstage, which does not collapse even when moving around the room. The speakers are praised for handling various music genres with equal proficiency, offering a realistic and dynamic listening experience.
Aesthetic and Build Quality:
The Duke speakers are described as visually striking with meticulous attention to detail in their construction, offering a luxurious finish that integrates well with room decor. The craftsmanship is noted to be of a high standard, comparable to some of the best in the industry.
The Hulgich Audio Duke Floorstanding Speakers, blending their technical prowess with the aesthetic appeal, all tailored to music enthusiasts looking for an authentic and high-fidelity listening experience.
