2.3HT Flagship Home Theatre system

Swans 2.3HT is composed of two front speakers (Swans 2.3F), a center speaker (Swans 2.3C), and two surround speakers (Swans 2.3R) and two Swans 2.3 Subwoofers.

HiVi’s original Isodynamic ribbon designs are well known throughout the world. The 2.3HT takes full advantage of the strength of our ribbon technology bringing sound quality to a new level.

Swans 2.3F uses 20pcs of 28mm dome tweeter and 20pcs of RT1.3 on the front baffle, 12pcs of 28mm dome tweeter and 12pcs of RT1.3 mounted to the rear of the baffle. The drivers are arranged in a Front/Back linear sound source system. The mid-range uses HiVi professional 6” full range driver. The Swans 2.3 Sub adopts a large professional 15” driver.

Swans 2.3C uses many of the same drivers used in the Swans 2.3F to preserve tonal uniformity across the front sound field, including the RT1.3 Isodynamic ribbon tweeter, 28mm dome tweeter, and 4 6” mid-low frequency drivers.

Swans 2.3R is a Bi-pole system, adopting 2 6” mid-low frequency drivers, 2 28mm dome tweeters, and 4 RT1.3 Isodynamic ribbon ultra tweeters. Power is strong enough wrap the listener in the ideal surround sound field.
