Product Description
The S-1 is a desktop speaker designed to coordinate with the Nuforce Icon. Specifically, a standard RJ-45 Cat 5 cable signals the Icon's equalizer to optimize the S-1's response characteristics. The tight integration with Icon and unique design enable S-1 to achieve sonic performance equivalent to speakers costing several times its price. The S-1's full-range, Nuforce-engineered driver utilizes a lightweight yet rigid titanium cone, a die-cast basket with a vented voice coil, and a neodymium motor structure, all of which contribute to the speaker's excellent linearity and power-handling capabilities. A waveguide feature similar to that of NuForce's top-of-the-line S-9 loudspeaker accounts for the S-1's exemplary midrange gain, dispersion pattern and eradication of diffraction artifacts. There are three basic benefits to the waveguide: 1. It controls dispersion thereby reducing the effect of nearby reflective surfaces. 2. It reduces speaker cone excursion and therefore distortion, while increasing dynamic headroom. 3. It reduces power demand from the amplifier and therefore lowers distortion while increasing dynamic headroom. The S-1's well-damped enclosure consists of audio-grade MDF (medium-density fiberboard). *** S-1 is only sold in pair and it can only works with NuForce Icon systems ***

Nu Force Speaker review October 11, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have had these for 3 weeks now.
They are good down to around 100hz so a sub is highly desirable. They do not play very loud so if you are after loud this is not your speaker. What they do produce is the best sound I have heard from any small speaker. Excellent value for money. I am waiting for the sub from NuForce and when it comes out will purchase that as well if you have a sub it needs to go to 100hz and it will blend easily as the speaker is sealed not ported.
So if you are looking for close to audiophile grade quality sound in a mini package, this is it.
