Principle of construction
Coaxial 2-way-system in vented box
ME 100(C) 2-way-coaxial-compact-loudspeaker in vented box
The 6.5-inch woofer system and the 1-inch tweeter system of the ME 100 passive 2-way coaxial loudspeaker are integrated into a vented cabinet and feature excellent linearity. Its mid-treble range qualities are highly independent of room characteristics, which contributes to uncomplicated spatial positioning of the loudspeaker.

ME 100 / ME 100C excellent linearity
The 6.5-inch woofer system and the 1-inch tweeter system of the ME 100 passive 2-way coaxial loudspeaker are integrated into a vented cabinet and feature excellent linearity. Its mid-treble range qualities are highly independent of room characteristics, which contributes to uncomplicated spatial positioning of the loudspeaker. The particular radiation characteristics allow a well-balanced listening experience for a basis width between 1.50 metres and 3 metres.
The ME 100 performs very well as front and effect loudspeaker in surround systems. As a centre speaker the ME 100C was designed, which is better integrable due to its lesser height. In addition the speaker is inclinable up to 15° to the top with the height-adjustable feet at the cabinet bottom. Therefore a perfect alignment to the listening position is possible. The centre speaker doesn‘t fall behind the ME 100 regarding acoustical and technical performance. In connection with a suitable AV receiver, the surround system can be complemented with our BASIS models.
Optionally, a stand in matching veneer or colour with integrated cable duct is available.
The general concept of the passive 2-way coaxial loudspeakers ME 100 and ME 100C offers a high sound compatibility to the RL model range of active loudspeakers and convinces with its phenomenal spatial imaging and neutrality. Moreover, the monitors stand out due to their well-balanced and low-distortion sound image and their high dynamic qualities.
