New Hurricane Evo Ultra Flat Glass Loudspeakers

At the recent CEDIA Expo, Waterfall Audio unveiled the compact Hurricane Evo Ultra Flat glass loudspeakers.

Hurricane Evo loudspeakers have a beautiful design with glass baffles less than 3 inches in depth that make it appear as if the speakers are floating. Another element of the design is the Heatstream technology, which eliminates heat buildup that can occur during long listening sessions at high volume levels.

The Hurricane Evo features two drivers. The proprietary transducers are created for Waterfall by Atohm, a French manufacturer of high-end drivers. The Atohm LD100 Absolute Series bass/midrange driver features an FEA optimized motor that incorporates a 60mm neodymium ring and a copper eddy-current ring to reduce distortion. The stiff cone features Low Diffraction Surrounding (LDS) technology which gives you greater protection against harmonic and Doppler distortion. This driver extends the speaker's bass response to 95Hz which allows the Hurricane Evo to be used without a subwoofer in most multiroom installations.

The new Atohm SD20 tweeter has an extended frequency response to 28kHz, and has a neodymium magnet and a treated silk dome that uses Anamorphic Dispersion Pattern (ADP) technology for better off-axis dispersion, as well as limiting reflections of the high frequencies. The ferrofluid-filled gap and aluminum voice-coil former provide good heat dissipation, for high power handling without audible compression.

Hurricane Evo Ultra Flat glass loudspeakers are available now for $750 each in white, black, or silver. Matching magnetic grilles that attach to the front of the speaker are available in white, black, silver, and two optional colors, green and orange. Each speaker is shipped with two wall brackets. Optional shelf or floor stands are available in three colors to match the speaker's body.
