昨天到新竹找葉教授聽音樂
重點當然是我沒聽過的 Roksan DARIUS

葉教授的Darius擺在實驗室中一張桌子的兩側
用CEC5100和Sonus Faber quid
就發出了極為平衡悅耳的好聲

什麼音樂都好聽
是Roksan最大的特色

沒太強烈的染色
適度的精準
適度的韻味
足夠的低頻

適合不只是聽古典的重度雜食性樂迷!!:):)超值中的超值!

The Darius loudspeaker

The Darius loudspeaker was designed alongside the original Xerxes in early 1985. As with the Xerxes, the Darius was the first loudspeaker design which tackled the adverse effects of induced vibration between drive unit, cabinet, and stand/support.



The Darius was the first loudspeaker with a sprung tweeter. This innovative design isolated the tweeter from unwanted vibrations in X, Y and Z directions. (Suspension frequency: X< 4Hz, Y<3Hz and Z<2.5 Hz).

The Darius was the first loudspeaker to use a 10mm internal spike to fix the resonance of the bass driver magnet and it was the first loudspeaker to have an exoskeletal stand, specifically designed to support the Darius cabinet at the 8 apexes (the primary nodes of the cabinet) via 8 adjustable spikes to ensure direct coupling of the cabinet to ground with negligible movement. It used a setup arrangement rather like a microphone pair setup which when combined with the above design features resulted in a performance second to none.



The Darius was soon becoming a reference for many, where dynamics, depth, absolutely stables pinpoint imaging and amazing bass response from such a small cabinet mesmerized the audiences around the world.

20 years later today, the pioneering principals of this amazing loudspeaker are still being used and admired in some of the best designs around.
