Just like the distortion figure and signal-to-noise ratio cannot tell everything about an amplifier, it is no exaggeration to say that when it comes to speakers, there is no "measurement" to begin with. However, it is also true that speakers that produce good sound are based on solid know-how. The SS-GR1 is a speaker system that focuses on implementing the know-how that has been continuously cultivated by Sony. It was sought an overall structure that would not make even the weakest sounds generated from the enclosure harmful. That is the RC (Resonance Control) frame. A large, sturdy wooden frame is installed in the inside of the enclosure, and this serves as the framework of the enclosure where the front and back baffles are connected. A super oval enclosure that prevents directivity disturbance and achieves a natural sound localization feeling was adopted using a technology that is also used in the molding of the side plate of a grand piano. The three CD horns (Constant Directivity) are machined from the front baffle.
