Ganymede is our first dedicated near-field model. Built from the same core technology and approach as Pulsar and Quasar, it features a brand new, more compact 5.5” coaxial and 7” subwoofer design, but uses all the same advanced geometries, materials, electronics and digital signal processing as its larger siblings. It provides the same level of accuracy, detail, imaging and timing coherence as well, but in a smaller footprint, and with a bit less extension and maximum output potential.
Custom SEAS Titan Series Subwoofer
Low distortion, long stroke design and rigid aluminum diaphragms provide exceptional bass extension and output for a driver this small.
Coaxial Midrange/Tweeter
Bleeding edge Composite Sound Metamodal TeXtreme diaphragms: ultralight, ultra-stiff carbon fabrics with optimized fiber geometries to actively control and suppress resonances.
Mathematically optimal midrange waveguide shape, underhung surround, and optimized point source acoustic center alignment provides superb off-axis response.
FEA optimized, very low distortion ferrite motor design, with a brand new copper shorting sleeve for ultra low inductance.
Electronics
Flagship AKM Velvet Sound AK4493/AK5572 based conversion leaves no sonic footprint.
Hypex Ncore amplifiers provide gobs of squeaky clean, efficient power.
5th gen SHARC+ DSP hardware can crunch many, many numbers at once.
Sealed Valchromat Cabinets
Stiff, dense and well damped, with none of the chuffing or group delay of ported designs.
DSP
Proprietary, in house calibration code completely flattens frequency, phase and impulse response.
Ex Machina Soundworks began as a rebellion against the status quo in audio. Tired of the tacit, creeping compromises we all take for granted as the cost of making music, we set out to create something different entirely. Something paradigm changing. Combining a true diversity of backgrounds, perspectives and expertise, from artificial intelligence and DSP, to circuit design, to acoustical and materials science, to 30+ years of recording and music making experience, we set out to push the envelope of what is scientifically possible in loudspeaker design. All with one goal in mind: shorten the gap between you and your art. Make your moves clearer, your process faster, the details obvious, your window vast. So you can have no doubts in the choices you make.
