Press release: The new Manger high-tech sound transducer W06

July 01, 2024, by Daniela Manger

With all our heart and soul, we would like to share our recently sent press release about the new Manger loudspeaker in our blog, under the motto: To the top of the world through living tradition and constant innovation!

Manger Audio presents the W06 high-tech sound transducer

Mellrichstadt, June 2024.

Manger Audio presents the next generation of the star-shaped bending wave transducer, the W06. Over the years, the trend-setting driver has been repeatedly improved in detail. With the W06, however, after an intensive development and testing phase, as well as countless listening tests, a significant step forward has now been achieved. The optimized motor now impresses with an impressive magnetic field strength of 1.48 Tesla. This results in an even faster rise time. A new type of damping system in the center of the diaphragm sustainably reduces distortion between 400 and 1600 Hertz; two octaves in which the human ear is most sensitive.

The new W06 transducer offers:

• Innovative chassis design
• Geometrically optimized magnet system, over 10% higher field strength (compared to predecessor)
• Perfectly controlled diaphragm movement thanks to a new type of center damper
• Improved linearity
• Noticeably lower distortion values between 400 and 1600 Hertz
• Improved micro dynamics
• State-of-the-art manufacturing for maximum durability

All Manger loudspeakers have been delivered with the W06 sound transducer since the beginning of the year. Of course, all Manger owners can have their loudspeakers upgraded.

  

     

  

     

  

     

  

     

  

     

  

     

  

  

Worldwide awards and recognition

Manger Audio loudspeakers regularly receive top-class awards. Renowned recording studios, universities and radio stations trust in the precision and incorruptible neutrality of Manger loudspeakers. The University of Music and Theatre in Munich, the Institute for Musicology at the University of Vienna and the State Opera in Baku are just a few examples.

Cutting-edge technology made in Franconia

Manger Audio stands for the highest quality standards - true to the maxim "Precision in sound". The sound transducers are masterfully handcrafted in Mellrichstadt, Franconia, under clean room conditions. Each individual chassis is precisely measured and subjected to rigorous tests before it is assembled. The manufacturing tolerances are less than +/- 0.5 dB. Even 2 decibels are considered very good.
All loudspeaker models can be manufactured in all RAL colors, satin matt or high gloss, and also in high-quality real wood veneers.

About Manger

Daniela Manger has been running the family business for more than 30 years in the second generation. Her father, Josef W. Manger, who was passionate about technology and music, registered his first patent in 1968. The foundation stone for an exciting and successful loudspeaker development was laid. Many renowned manufacturers equipped their loudspeakers with the Manger transducer until Manger Audio decided at the end of the 1990s to only produce exclusively for its own use. Manger Audio manufactures both active and passive loudspeakers and exports to 20 countries worldwide.
