Looking for a more moving audio experience? Take Infinity ® car audio for a ride. Innovative materials and breakthrough engineering have always put Infinity products out in front of the competition’s. So expect extreme output from us. But be prepared for accuracy and detail that may surprise you. The
Kappa line of premium loudspeakers – which incorporates the very best in high-end design and proven technology – has long been one of the world’s most recognized and admired.
m u l t i e l e m e n t s
New Kappa loudspeakers take car audio speaker technology to a whole new level with features such as Plus One ® (patent pending) cones; true-four-ohm topology; UniPivot ™ (patent no. 6,002,780) edge-driven tweeters; and industry-leading mounting systems, including Intermount III (patent no. 6,505,705) and I-Mount ™
(patent no. 5,859,917), and the Starfish ™ tweeter-mounting adapter.
With all this technology in a single speaker series, it’s no wonder our competitors are scrambling to keep up.
For years, the design of upscale car audio speakers has been loosely based on the design of at-home speaker systems, where amplifiers are big and power is plentiful. The audio systems in new cars are different. Almost all new systems include two-ohm speakers and small, efficient amplifiers or head units designed to drive them. Replacing those two-ohm factory speakers with four-ohm models cuts the available power in half, and that’s no upgrade. Kappa speakers are optimized for these new systems and work beautifully with old-school aftermarket gear, too.

Installation of Kappa speakers is easy, thanks to a new crossover dongle, that is permanently connected to the speaker’s terminals at the factory. No special tools or connectors are required to connect standard Kappa speakers to the car’s wiring. Additionally, Kappa speakers include frames designed to fit most factory speaker locations without modification.
Kappa Series Speakers also include Plus One cone technology, which delivers a cone with more surface area than competing models of the same size. This increase can be as much as 30%, depending on the individual speaker model. The benefit is increased bass output and increased efficiency.

All Kappa Series speakers are “true four-ohm” – they include reduced voice-coil impedance designed to extract the most power possible from all amplifiers engineered to drive loads of four ohms or less. Many factory-installed systems incorporate two-ohm speakers and include amplifiers designed to drive those loads. Replacing those reducedimpedance speakers with four-ohm models is hardly an upgrade, since the power output from the amplifier will be reduced. True-four-ohm addresses this as well.
Other features – An ultra-wideband
UHF soft-dome tweeter is used on the component systems for accurate music reproduction from 25kHz up to 35kHz.
Edge-driven-MMD ® dome tweeters are used. These are not commonly used
W-domes, but fully edge-driven-dome tweeters like those found in better home-audio speakers. The benefit is increased power handling and reduced distortion at high output levels.
A new ceramic woofer motor with a much longer voice coil for drastically reduced distortion at high listening levels (up to 15dB less!) is used. This results in a much tighter and better sounding bass.
