The advantages of a point source loudspeaker
With multi-way loudspeakers, phase problems inevitably arise at crossover frequencies. Even sophisticated high-end systems cannot completely avoid this problem. That's why full-range loudspeakers, also known as point source speakers, have been considered the means of choice for more than 50 years to assess the stereo depth and width of a mix with absolute phase fidelity. The Super Sound Cubes were the first loudspeakers to bring these benefits to professional studios. Equipped with a single high-quality 4.5-inch driver in an ultra-compact sealed enclosure, they provide the perfectly phase-accurate representation of the all-important midrange and incorruptible spaciousness essential for viable mix decisions.
