Markaudio Pluvia

Quote

MarkAudio Pluvia Seven 4" Full Range in Vintage Gold (slightly Copper Colored)

Pluvia Seven Extended Full Range audio driver.

The Pluvia Seven driver is a new type of small driver from MarkAudio. While it's mechanically similar to the CHR-70 series drivers, its major design features are more advanced.

The main feature of this Pluvia is its new low-mass thin profile glass-fibre injected chassis (frame). This chassis design has taken 2 years of research and development to produce a highly damped strong frame that makes installation easy. Pluvia Seven can be either surface mounted or recessed into a loudspeaker box. The chassis mounting depth is only 3.5mm making it easy fit for either type of installation. The chassis appearance is high quality, with a professional industry finish that makes the Pluvia Seven look expensive while it remains affordable.

The Pluvia Seven features a new shape cap and revised suspensions giving it a wide range with controlled mid response to help reduce “shout,” typical of many small wide band drivers. Pluvia’s cones use the latest profiles from designer Mark Fenlon, featuring 2 new colours, Vintage Gold and Soft Chrome. Vocals on this Pluvia are clear and natural. Baffle Step Compensation (BSC) is enhanced on the new suspension layout, making this driver more effective in combatting box losses in the low range. Other new features include longer gold plated connectors for easier soldering or using clamp type connectors.

The new Pluvia Seven is an excellent high-end and multi-purpose driver. It's also suitable for many computer, Home Theatre, TV, and commercial A/V applications.

Newbie question, What is the advantage of glass-fiber chasis over Cast iron?

My guess is more damping and less chances of "ringing" for the frame chassis.

Wala kayang upated version ng Alpair 7 and 10?

share lang may latest build

Alpair 10p on Erich Hartmann's 15liters BS

primer pa lang....

I am not expecting much from this enclosure.... i just want a pair of speaker while the "house" is in construction phase but i was surprised by the full bodied sound, as if i'm listening from a floor stander.

Congrats! Sana marinig ko na mga speakers mo bro. Puwede sa Horn 4 ito box mo. How much bro.

Nice builds mga sir.

I've been browsing this thread for quite some time and I'm planning to build one myself in the future.

Now, my question is do you guys have a guide on which drivers to use for certain applications?
Andami kasi ng mga models, aside for the price, what else do you consider in choosing what drivers to use?

Exactly my idea for an enclosure, divine proportions or universal symmetry. 1 : 1.618 from top to bottom, like a trumpet pointing downward.

may I ask what material you used? I was hoping to use marine ply for a quick fix test box sana. But knowing me that test box would probably end up being used frequently.

JoeyGS · « **Reply #1219 on:** Apr 15, 2016 at 09:39 AM »

What we did is to read the forum topics at diyaudio.com on Mark Audio drivers users forum and Full Range forum topic. Professional speaker builders supported Mark Audio by providing free box designs in the forum for each driver that comes out and test results were discussed.

add to that the lower cost of production...my guess...

JoeyGS · « **Reply #1227 on:** Apr 26, 2016 at 05:54 PM »

The Pluvia 7 is the latest but the Alpair 7.3 is still regarded as the best in the 4" category. The Pluvia seven was said to be in the middle of the CHR70.3 and the Alpair 7.3.
