Description
Strong metal cabinet
The Model M speaker comes in a discrete matte lacquer. It is also offered in a high gloss black piano lacquer with gold accents, and it can be customized to any color. The cabinet is 100% aluminum, employing internal bracings and a thick front to hold the drive units in place. This dampens resonance, and compared to wood cabinets, the Model M’s structure minimizes gross volume.
For a sleek finish, an optional grill with black fabric and with or without trim is available.
Ultra-rigid construction
The Model M is the most rigid Steinway & Sons installation speaker, based on a very strong aluminum enclosure bonded to an mdf front baffle. It is surprisingly heavy, while allowing a larger than usual internal cabinet volume for better sound performance.
Highest-performance midrange driver and tweeter
The Model M uses the company’s own Air Motion Transformer tweeter with an ultra-thin, folded Kapton diaphragm between extremely powerful neodymium magnets, achieving a completely clear, high resolution, distortion-free performance. The midrange driver features deep-anodized aluminum cones and very powerful magnets. It easily reaches 114 dB SPL, which allows an absolutely effortless reproduction of sound effects, movie soundtracks, and dynamic music. Combined with two boundary woofers, the Model M outperforms even the best high-end audio floorstand speakers, with the benefit of custom installation. Combined with other Steinway & Sons speakers as front channels, the Model M keeps the sound performance on-par for all surround channels.
Finished like a grand piano
The Model M is available with the front baffle finished with the highest quality lacquer. It is made at the same facility as the famous Steinway & Sons pianos and ennobled with the original logo, giving the speaker its unmistakable Steinway & Sons appearance in the room. The baffle is slightly larger than the aluminum enclosure, allowing the finish and lacquering to stand out, while still having the advantage of a discreet installation speaker. The tweeter is embedded and surrounded with a solid base plated with real gold, or custom-made in other finishes such as matt gold, chrome, or matt lacquer.
