Simaudio/MOON

The MOON Voice 22 loudspeaker represents Simaudio's first (and they say only) foray into loudspeakers. It fulfills their dream to be able to offer an all-MOON music system with their own voice. The Voice 22 delivers the rich and natural signature of MOON sound with a precise clarity that will delight any music lover. It is the perfect fit for the ACE with which it comprises a complete entertainment sound system. Of course, it can be paired with other quality integrated amplifiers such as their 240i (for those who want the features of the ACE without streaming) or with preamplifier/power amplifier combos.

The 2-way Voice 22 ($3000) is a compact and beautiful bookshelf/monitor loudspeaker that appears to float or hover when placed on a shelf. Alternatively, it can be mounted on its own custom stand. The Voice 22 loudspeakers, in combination with the ACE all-in-one music player, have received the prestigious High-End Stereo System 2022-23 EISA award. Key features include:

• The tweeter has a 29mm textile membrane dome and a large surround designed to work without a typical front plate. It is integrated into a custom waveguide, permitting a wider frequency range and lower crossover frequency.
• The 155mm woofer has a cast-aluminum basket and a mineral-filled polypropylene cone that allows for a detailed midrange and strong, extended bass.
• The crossover features a dual-layer printed circuit board that is designed with carefully-selected, high-quality metallized polypropylene film capacitors for optimal sound quality and long-term reliability.
• The enclosure employs a unique, patent-pending technology called CGD (Curved Groove Damping) that controls the panel resonances of the loudspeaker, reducing cabinet vibrations and colorations.
• The Hover Base lends a visually striking appearance to the enclosure which seems to float gracefully above the furniture. It ensures that the Voice 22 may be placed on virtually any surface without leaving a mark while adding stability to the loudspeaker and guaranteeing sound integrity.
