Morel Fat Lady Reference Floorstander
The ideal cabinet for the fat-lady needs to be strong and light in weight. Light and strong are expressions associated with the design of high performance racing cars and aircrafts, so where better to look for materials to construct the cabinet. For the composition of the fat lady enclosure, an outer layer of lacquered carbon fiber is optimally mixed with fiber glass and epoxy resin. Utilizing the very latest in manufacturing techniques, Morel have produced a mold that affords the R&D team total freedom to create a design that is both acoustically and visually sublime. The curved shape with no straight lines is similar to a musical instrument. Unlike conventional loudspeakers it has absolutely no internal damping: the inside of the cabinet is empty. The cabinet is allowed to vibrate in a controlled manner along with the drive units and uses this energy as part of the reproduced sound. The clever part is that the cabinet 'sings' with the drive unit but stops immediately when the drive unit stops so there are no delayed resonances. The result is a speaker that sounds as if it has no cabinet at all. The drivers take no back seat to the cabinets, they are the result of 30 years of expert research and are Morel's best.
