Cardea Super 10
Derek Gilligan has been designing high quality
loudspeakers for 21 years and has developed the Cardea Super 10 to
celebrate this anniversary. The Super 10 is designed without compromise
and uses the very finest quality components.
The Super 10 shares the same 12 litre cabinets with the C10, Kudos'
established stand-mount reference. The drive units are some of the
best in the world; produced for Kudos by SEAS in Norway – a company with
almost 60 years of expertise in this field. The K2 tweeter is
developed exclusively for Kudos from the famous Crescendo unit. The
main drive unit, developed by Kudos and manufactured by SEAS features a
copper shorting ring to minimise eddy currents, an aluminium phase plug
to act as a heat-sink and a hand-treated paper cone. This drive unit
has been specifically designed for this application and to integrate
superbly with the K2 tweeter.
Designing the drive units to
integrate seamlessly allows the use of a minimal, low-order crossover
reducing phase errors, blurring and other unwanted artefacts. Each
crossover component has been carefully tested and selected for its
performance in the Super 10 including Mundorf inductors, resistors, and
‘Mcap® Supreme Silver/Gold/Oil’ capacitors. These parts are produced to
extremely tight tolerances and then hand-matched for use in the Super
10. The Chord Company internal wiring is carefully chosen for its
musicality and resistance to the effects of vibration.
