Brax Graphic GL6 speakers

As a passionate music lover and hi-fi enthusiast, Audiotec founder Heinz Fischer had one vision: to be the first to bring the audio experience of legendary high-end audio components to the car. No compromises have been made in design, sound and technology to achieve this ambitious goal. Following these principles, Brax engineers focused on exceptional sound quality and once again pushed the technological limits when designing the new BRAX GRAPHIC range of loudspeakers. Excellent components and unrivaled craftsmanship make the difference - exclusively made in Germany of course!

Top mid-bass speaker with excellent sound

The unique surface treatment "MicroSphere" is one of the main reasons for the unrivaled sonic precision of the new 165 mm / 6.5" high-end mid-bass speaker GRAPHIC GL6. In a patented process, micro ceramic hollow spheres with a diameter of 75 microns are embedded in a polymer layer and applied to cone. The coating ensures perfect internal damping without any negative impact on the moving mass. Rather, this innovative technology increases the stability of the hand-picked diaphragm, allowing for better dynamics and higher sound definition than ever before.

Elegant design and sophisticated technology

Of course, all other details of the GL6 loudspeakers strictly follow the BRAX philosophy without exception. This starts with a special rubber lip shape for long linear deflection, while a new duster geometry smooths the response in the upper midrange frequency range. The 24k gold-plated tip provides negligible contact resistances and the rock-solid aluminum die-cast basket houses a powerful and precision-machined magnetic system for the highest flow linearity and excellent efficiency, carefully protected by a hard cover with the BRAX logo. Like all BRAX loudspeakers, each pair of mid-woofers has its own serial number, duly recorded in an internal database. Needless to say, such valuable products will be delivered in a noble wooden box emphasizing the approach and philosophy of the BRAX brand.

Main features of Brax Graphic GL6 speakers

  • A very stiff, lightweight paper diaphragm with a unique "MicroSphere" coating consisting of microceramic hollow spheres embedded in a polymer layer offers the best possible impulse response without any sonic coloration.
  • Specially shaped rubber edge for long linear movement of the membrane.
  • The new, hemispherical dust cover optimizes the frequency response in the upper midrange area.
  • Extremely rigid aluminum die-cast basket.
  • 24-carat gold-plated screw terminals for the lowest transient resistance.
  • Powerful and precisely machined magnetic system for high efficiency combined with excellent linearity of magnetic flux.
  • The large ventilation opening of the pole attachment significantly reduces compression effects.
  • Robust magnet cover with BRAX inscription for perfect magnet protection.

Speaker typeCoaxial speakers:
Coaxial speakers are characterized by a so-called all-in-one design. The tweeter and mid-bass speaker are in one basket. The advantage is simpler assembly, but thanks to the connection or proximity of the bands in one speaker, the sound quality will usually be reduced. As a rule, in the middle of the mid-bass speaker, there is a tweeter whose voice coil works in the second air gap of the common magnetic circuit. The three-way coaxial speaker consists of a mid-bass speaker, a center speaker and a separate tweeter in the front on a special beam.

Component Speakers:
Component speakers are characterized by a division into individual frequency bands, treble + mid-bass + or. bass band. The individual speakers can be placed completely separately, which results in a better sound and acoustic performance. In the vast majority of cases of component speakers, an external crossover is also supplied, which divides the treble, middle / mid-bass, and into the three-band the bass band or allows setting the decibel level of the tweeter (e.g. +2 dB, 0 dB, -2 dB), steepness (e.g. 6dB/Oct. 12dB/Oct.) or active or bi-amp connection.

RMS powerRMS speaker power is the constant power of the entire system, not just one speaker or one side. This is also the performance of continuous use of the speakers. If the RMS power is exceeded for a long time, the speakers may be irreversibly damaged! 100 W
Max. (maximum performancePeak performance , which the speaker can play for a moment (approx. 0.5 s), for example when hitting drums in a song. If the max power is exceeded, the speakers will usually be damaged! 150 W
Sensitivity (SPL 1W/1m)Sensitivity, sensitivity or efficiency of the speaker.

Speaker sensitivity is given in decibels (dB) and simply put, the higher the value, the lower the demands on the amplifier's power. This is a defacto rating of how a speaker converts watts to sound. Sensitivity ratings are in noise level measured at 1 meter from the speaker using 1 W (watt of power) or using 2.83 volts at the source at 1 meter.

A higher decibel level means the speaker is louder with less power. For every 3 dB increase in sensitivity, the speaker requires half the power to reproduce the same volume. For example, if an 88 dB speaker needs 100 Watts to produce a certain volume, then a speaker with a sensitivity of 91 dB needs only 50 Watts to reach the same volume.
88 dB
ImpedanceImpedance - measurement of electrical resistance. When buying speakers, it is important to make sure that the impedance matches the amplifier or car stereo you are using.

Example:
A 2 Ohm speaker cannot be connected to an amplifier that is only stable up to 4 Ohms! A 4 Ohm speaker can easily be used with an amplifier that is stable up to 2 Ohms. The most common speaker impedance today is 3 - 4 Ohm.
3 Ω
Frequency rangeThe ability of the speakers to play a signal from the lowest frequency to the highest, or the speaker's ability to faithfully reproduce sound in a specific frequency band.

Professionally:
In the frequency range from 40 to 16,000 Hz, the vast majority of fundamental and overtones (harmonics) of all musical instruments are found. We are interested in the course of the radiated sound pressure in this range of frequencies when the loudspeaker system is supplied with constant power. We call this course the frequency characteristic, which tells us the level of radiated sound pressure in decibels (dB) depending on the frequency. The frequency characteristic of a speaker or speaker system can be expressed most succinctly with a graph.

Mostly, however, the frequency characteristic is indicated by indicating the maximum tolerance of the sound pressure in the given frequency range, e.g. 50 to 15,000 Hz -+ 6 dB. Since the frequency characteristics of loudspeakers and systems in general are quite uneven, some manufacturers do not even specify this maximum tolerance of sound pressure in decibels in their catalogs for reasons of prestige. Data impoverished in this way is unfortunately worthless. What is valid is that the manufacturer offers a speaker system with a frequency range of 30 to 20,000 Hz, if he is worried about stating the maximum unevenness of the sound pressure in this range, because he can have a tolerance of, for example, +- 20 dB.

The unevenness or undulation of the frequency curve in good speaker systems for high-quality music performance should not exceed +-3 dB in the 80 to 12,000 Hz band and +-6 dB in the 40 to 16,000 Hz band. Greater unevenness already depletes or emphasizes certain tonal areas, which can cause audible or even disturbing distortion. The proportion between fundamental tones and higher harmonics also changes, thereby changing the color of the sound, and individual musical instruments as well as the entire musical image sound unnatural.
250 - 8000 Hz
The diameter of the mid-bass speakerWe state the diameter of the speaker as the diameter of the entire speaker, not including the mounts, when smaller speakers (87, 100, 130 mm) have extra mounts. Some speakers are oval and there the dimension is given in inches, always the shortest side to the longest side. One inch is approx. 2.5 cm. 165 mm
Installation depth of the mid-bass speakerThe installation depth of the speaker is measured from the bottom edge of the magnet to the bottom edge of the tin, plastic or cast speaker basket, or speaker bearing surfaces. 68,2 mm
Mid-woofer diaphragm materialThe material that was used for the speaker diaphragm. Don't be afraid of the paper, it surprisingly has a very natural and high-quality sound and, thanks to the surface treatment, it can withstand moisture without any problems. Papír
