DS-6 Bookshelf Speakers
The DS-6 represents a compact version of the flagship RSB-6 speakers. The enclosures are made from 22mm thick MDF, and inside, there is a robust central brace, along with two layers of insulating materials, helping to maintain resonances at extremely low and inaudible levels. The front panel is 44mm thick, ensuring perfect mechanical grounding of the drivers. The rounded front edges reduce diffraction, assisting the speakers in delivering deep, expansive sound across a large listening area.

Tweeter
The DS-6 uses the same proven silk dome tweeter as the RSB-6. Its silk diaphragm delivers incredibly natural, detailed sound without harshness. A large ferrite magnet with a substantial resonance chamber allows the tweeter to perform from 1200Hz. The ferrofluid-cooled voice coil ensures high output levels without overheating. The wide dispersion pattern ensures a flat frequency response up to 20kHz, even off-axis.

Mid-Bass Driver
The DS-6 uses a paper cone mid-bass driver that provides beautiful, transparent reproduction of both midrange and bass frequencies. A large vented magnet ensures clear reproduction of dynamic passages without compression.

Passive Radiator
The DS-6 uses a paper cone passive radiator to preserve the transparency and natural sound of the mid-bass driver. The radiator is tuned to very low frequencies and has a small amplitude, allowing the speakers to be placed close to walls without compromising sound quality.

Why Use a Passive Radiator?
When using a passive radiator, the enclosure behaves as both partially sealed and partially open. This design ensures very precise bass reproduction and a deep frequency response that reaches below 38Hz in ideal room conditions.

Crossover
The crossover is just as critical a component as any other part of the speaker, which is why it has not been overlooked. For the DS-6 series, we selected high-quality components from the Danish brand Jantzen, including Cross-cap and Standard Z-cap capacitors, large-gauge air-core inductors, and top-tier Superes resistors with a 1% tolerance.

Wiring
As with all of our products, the DS-6 series uses premium wiring from the UK-based brand QED, paired with solder containing a high silver content to ensure superior conductivity and long-lasting durability.
