Specifically, a standard RJ-45 Cat 5 cable signals the Icon's equalizer to optimize the S-1's response characteristics. The tight integration with Icon and unique design enable S-1 to achieve sonic performance equivalent to speakers costing several times its price. The S-1's full-range, Nuforce-engineered driver utilizes a lightweight yet rigid titanium cone, a die-cast basket with a vented voice coil, and a neodymium motor structure, all of which contribute to the speaker's excellent linearity and power-handling capabilities. A waveguide feature similar to that of NuForce's top-of-the-line S-9 loudspeaker accounts for the S-1's exemplary midrange gain, dispersion pattern and eradication of diffraction artifacts. There are three basic benefits to the waveguide: 1. It controls dispersion thereby reducing the effect of nearby reflective surfaces. 2. It reduces speaker cone excursion and therefore distortion, while increasing dynamic headroom. 3. It reduces power demand from the amplifier and therefore lowers distortion while increasing dynamic headroom. The S-1's well-damped enclosure consists of audio-grade MDF (medium-density fiberboard). *** S-1 is only sold in pair and it can only works with NuForce Icon systems *** | | | Features: | |

good sound on my desk!Sep 22, 2008
With thee small and nice icon amplifier these speakers are great on my desk. I prefer blank and red because it's unusual. I usually use an 300b amplifier with enormous speakers (100db) with a full range speaker. But it's a shame to burn my 300b while I am working on my desk in another room. Is it actually Hi-fi? It's depends the way you are listening. You cannot compare the S1 with expansive speakers like bookshelf. A bookshelf speakers must be listen in an armchair 3mters away. The S1 are really different. You have to listen them on your desk or one or two meters away. And I must say the sound is really good, very clear. You may lister anything. Of course the bass is not enough if you want a big church organ on your desk. But everything is there, it's deep and you have a sceene in front of you! A question: is my work better now that I am working with the sound from my S1?
