On the rear panel of the control unit are outputs for the left hand speaker and a subwoofer so an active subwoofer can be connected if required. A switchable line-in input with attenuation switch allows numerous audio devices (including a Turntable or TV) to be connected and enjoyed with MR1s high fidelity sound.
MR1 features aptX audio coding technology that partners with Bluetooth so compatible devices can stream to MR1 with audio quality virtually indistinguishable from a wired connection. Many computers and handheld devices now come as standard with aptX but with or without sound quality over Bluetooth with MR1 is impressive.
Quoted power outputs for modern electronic devices are often misleading. Like our other products MR1 features a linear Class A-B stereo amplifier with a high capacity power supply. Linear amplifiers are used in the worlds best audio equipment and in our opinion still offer far better sound quality than new style digital amplifiers which sound forced and artificial in comparison.
MR1 utilises two new drive units developed specifically to give high performance sound from MR1s compact dimensions. Using the latest design software great care has been taken on the woofer and tweeter construction to ensure distortion causing reflections are kept to a minimum. Both units also feature rare earth neodymium magnet systems. This type of magnet material is expensive compared to conventional ferrite systems but allows greater magnetic concentration for better driver control in a lightweight and fully shielded system.
