Mark & Daniel Maximus - Topaz

Product Images

Speakers are currently only available in Yellow, Red and Orange. We will NOT be charging extra for these colours.

The Maximus-Topaz is the improved, higher efficiency version of the successful Maximus-Ruby miniature speaker. The Maximus-Topaz allows audiophiles to enjoy the same stunning sound performance as the Maximus-Ruby while using a lower power output amplifier to achieve this.

With a 3dB improvement in system efficiency and higher impedance characteristic over the Ruby, the new Maximus-Topaz is able to produce significant SPL output and dynamics when driven by good quality mid-power solid state or vacuum tube amplifiers.

A DM-4 Dreams module is mounted on front panel to cover the 900Hz-25KHz wide audio band with excellent dispersion characteristics. A 5.2” SX woofer equipped with a newly designed, stronger motor providing a ±7.5mm of linear excursion is used within the Compound Marble enclosure, allowing a system F3 response down to a very respectable 48Hz for a bookshelf speaker its size!

Maximus-Topaz’s dimensions are 29.0cm (H) x 17.0cm (W) x 21.3cm (D), exactly identical to the Maximus-Ruby; the reinforced enclosure is solid and heavy, each weighting 8.6 Kg. The nominal impedance is 4-6 ohms with average efficiency being 85.5 dB/2.83V/1m.

For ideal operation and optimum bass reproduction, a low to mid-power amplifier with 30 to 60 watts per channel is recommended.
