Audio Development - Travelling With Audio
Laboratorio Audio is an Italian company which designs, develops and manufactures loudspeakers under the brand name Audio Development; a proud company committed to devising the perfect combination between tradition and innovation. Directly involved with every phase of production to ensure the highest standards of quality and design, Audio Development's core mission is to replicate music in its purest form as intended by the original artist; without adding nor hiding anything. It approaches different challenges with different solutions and designs, nonetheless the target always remains the same; the ultimate satisfaction of the listener. Satisfaction that is fueled by raw emotion.

Any product bearing the Audio Development name is considered a special design. A company that prefers to considered as an artisan rather than a manufacturer; Audio Development continues to strive towards that goal, remaining dissatisfied even as it's devoted customers are not. It's a company rooted in core values, completely addicted to producing sweet music for the people.

AD Series - Succinct Aural Excellence
Not every audiophile is driven by sheer output or overwhelming bass. For a more discerning echelon of listeners, supreme sound quality takes precedence above all else. Articulated subterranean bass, delectably controlled midrange and highs rendered with breathtaking precision. These are listeners who appreciate the finer nuances of musical reproduction, where every detail matters. Welcome to the domain of the AD range. Developed with every conceivable detail subjected to exhaustive scrutiny, these exceptional loudspeakers represent an uncompromising pursuit of acoustic excellence. When the objective is to approach the very pinnacle of in-car musical reproduction, this is where the conversation begins.

Design Ideologies
Handcrafted in Italy, the AD600 two-way speaker system from Audio Development embodies the marriage of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary engineering. Designed around the philosophy of authentic Italian sound reproduction; the AD600 series strives for exceptional transparency, speed and emotional engagement. In doing so delivering a listening experience that places musical expression firmly at the forefront.

Minute Magnificence – The Handcrafted T100 Tweeter
Responsible for high-frequency reproduction is the T100 tweeter. Featuring a 1.1″ / 28 mm treated silk dome; the T100 is engineered to deliver smooth, refined and exceptionally detailed treble without introducing listening fatigue. Its high-thermal-stability neodymium magnetic circuit works in conjunction with a ferrofluid-cooled copper voice coil wound on an aluminium former, providing robust thermal management and impressive power-handling capabilities.

Complementing its acoustic performance is a compact form factor and versatile tri-mount installation system. This accommodates flush, external and flange mounting configurations for greater flexibility when integrating the system into a vehicle.

Power When Required – The Handcrafted W600 Woofer
Handling midrange and mid-bass reproduction, the W600 woofer is engineered to deliver authoritative impact while maintaining tonal neutrality. Its fibreglass cone is paired with a compliant rubber surround and driven by a substantial 1.6″ / 40 mm oxygen-free copper voice coil. Mechanical integrity is further enhanced by a distinctive sixteen bracket polyphenylene oxide thermoplastic chassis reinforced with fibreglass, designed to minimise unwanted structural resonances and provide a stable foundation for the moving assembly.

Thermal management is addressed through a vented pole piece that promotes forced-air cooling, helping the W600 maintain composure under demanding operating conditions. The result is a mid-woofer designed to combine speed, dynamics and convincing impact. Making it particularly well suited to high-performance front-stage systems where output capability must coexist with accurate musical reproduction.

Superb Engineering
Combining Italian craftsmanship, carefully considered driver engineering and versatile installation options, the AD600 offers an appealing proposition for enthusiasts seeking a refined two-way loudspeaker system with both precision and dynamic authority.

Design Features
The astute engineering team at Audio Development are without peer. The sheer amount of technologies this astute team incorporates into each and every single design is beyond comprehension. Some of these design elements include:
– The T100 features a specially profiled dome for an extraordinary wide sound dispersion azimuth.
– Coated silk tweeter dome is extremely light yet strong.
– FEM calculated tweeter dome geometry for best possible force transmission from the voice coil to the tweeter dome.
– Strong yet lightweight fiberglass cones on the W600 helps minimise distortions and provide accuracy that’s nothing short of astounding.
– Large connection cables for a lossless connection.
– FEM calculated membranes for a high-end linear frequency response.
– High power magnet systems for best efficiency.
– Large flat wire voice coils for a high power handling.
– Progressively rolled polycotton spider ensures all reciprocating parts remain perfectly aligned.
– Plated push terminals for an optimum connection to the speaker cable without corrosion.
– Magnetically inert polyphenylene oxide thermoplastic basket designed for aerodynamic transparency and optimum heat removal.
