The
Maximus-Sapphire is the Mark & Daniel’s monitor-grade
miniature speaker made with state-of-art technologies, suitable
for Pro Audio applications and/or for audiophiles who are seeking
for the finest sound reproducer ever made in miniature size speakers.
Based on the success and design of the Maximus-Ruby; significant
detail improvements have been painstakingly crafted to create
the new Sapphire monitor system, specifically on:
- Fully rein-forced structural enclosure, and back panel with
two reflection ports to further cut down on extraneous noise and
distortion;
- A larger rubber surround with heavier cone mass for the new
5.5” SX woofer is utilized; the woofer incorporates an 40%
magnetically strengthened motor which provides even higher output
capability, and optimized bass control during high SPL reproduction;
- A new crossover network design, including larger diameter inductor
and high quality capacitors for detailed sound alignment;
- Bi-wire speaker terminals are provided allowing bi-wire connection
or a bi-amp playback system for the best possible sound reproduction.
A DM-4 Dreams module is mounted on front panel to cover the 900Hz-25KHz
wide audio band with excellent dispersion characteristics. An
improved 5.5” SX woofer with a superb ±10mm linear
excursion has been assembled into a rein-forced miniature Compound
Marble enclosure, with system F3 response lowered deep down to
an amazing 45Hz!
Maximus-Sapphire’s dimensions are H 29.0cm (11.4“)
xW 17.0cm (6.7”) xD 21.3cm (8.4“), same as the Maximus-
Ruby; the rein-forced enclosure is extremely solid and heavy,
each weighting 9.5 Kg (21 lb). The nominal impedance is 3-6 ohms
with average efficiency being 83.5dB/2.83V/1m. Maximus-Sapphire
speaker does not equip the mask on the panel for the best possible
sound reproduction.
For proper operation, a high current amplifier with 100 watts
output per channel connecting with the bi-wire cable is the minimum
requirement for driving the Maximus-Sapphire.
For better sound performance and cost saving, two mid-power amplifiers
can be configured as the bi-amp playback system recommended by
Mark &Daniel®.

“I
could hear deep-sea diving, uncluttered bass right from the start.
The mid to high range was crystal clear and transparent, And so
coherent… The Maximus reminded me of being in the recording
studio during my days; when orchestral music played, I felt like
being the conductor, with the full ensemble wrapping around me.
The sound stage was wide open and layered like a big onion. Incredible
detail and microdynamics – you wouldn’t to search
for them, they’d come and get you. This is the most revealing
speaker I’ve ever encountered.”

Mark
& Daniel® Sound Systems
Mark & Daniel® Audio Labs has designed and manufactured
his high-end audio products since 2004, specializing in R&D
for sound drivers and speaker systems with the goal of creating
systems capable of true hi-fi reproduction.
Through their work, Mark & Daniel® has overcome three
primary restrictions in the development of hi-fi speaker systems
today. These are:
1) Too narrow an operating bandwidth for the tweeters;
2) Insufficient driving dynamics to the woofers;
3) Lack to FMD control degrades sound clarity.
By successfully tackling these limitations, Mark & Daniel®
has pioneered a “Conceptional Revolution” in high
fidelity music reproduction.
Mark & Daniel® has achieved a breakthrough in speaker
design that re-defines speaker systems based on true hi-fi fundamentals.
Referring the Air Motion Transformer (AMT) principle invented
by Dr. Oscar Heil in the 1970s, M&D had developed his own
version Dreams wideband drivers to resolve the tweeters bandwidth
limitation; a patented super linear excursion (the Super Xmax)
technology also employed to dramatically increasing woofers dynamic
ability under very high sound reproductions. The results are a
profound innovation for the audio driving modules; M&D has
engineered the sound for tomorrow’s speakers!
Unique drivers with leading technology and the special Compound
Marble hand-crafted enclosures produce clarity of sound that simply
must be heard to be believed. All major components are developed
and crafted “in-house” for unparalleled performance.
A full-range product line of Mark & Daniel® speakers is
available for your selection now! For hi-fi reproduction, ther
state-of-art 4" Maximus-Mini miniature speaker, the 5.5”
Maximus-Ruby/-Topaz/-Sapphire, or the 6.5” Maximus-Monitor
bookshelf speaker.
All speakers produced by Mark & Daniel® have unified hi-end
sound quality. The only real difference is their output capability
which should be tailored to fit different listening environments.
These products are profoundly different from today’s audio
mainstream. They embody both a unique character and stunning performance.
Indeed, Mark & Daniel Audio Labs has produced some of the
most original and unique speakers in the market place today.
We urge you to try the Mark & Daniel® sound systems.
