Designed for those who require the
ultimate in audio reproduction from a 'small', wall-mountable speaker. Dué is a speaker
so versatile, it delivers uncompromising sound quality in every installation. Whether
wall-mounted or freestanding, Dué delivers a quality and quantity of sound that no
other speaker of its size and price can match.
Dué's diminutive dimensions and good looks provide a visual complement to plasma
displays and other pieces of attractive audio visual equipment, while architectural
sconce-shaped grilles enable Dué to blend into the ambient environment if required.
Dué is available in a choice of black or white powder coated finishes,
with both driver covers and wrap around speaker grill, and
can be combined in home cinema arrangements as left, centre and right, and using Nucleus Micro
as the rear satellite speakers.
Barely 11" tall and 5" wide, Dué benefits from patented and proprietary technologies
developed by Anthony Gallo for its award winning series of loudspeakers. Based upon the
company's best-selling Nucleus Micro, each Dué is comprised of
two of these spherically-shaped 4" speakers separated by a patented CDT tweeter.
With the dedicated powered MPS-15
subwoofer, three mounting options (shelf-mount, wall-mount or the
architectural Wallflower stands), it's easy to match a
Gallo system to your home and aspirations. (For audiophiles who prefer not
to use an active sub-woofer in two channel configurations, Anthony Gallo
offer the MPC-1 passive sub-woofer)
Dué boasts the extraordinary midrange purity of the Micro,
combined with the most natural and extended trebles of any speaker
on the market. Impressive power handling, 93dB sensitivity, 60Hz-40kHz
frequency response and textbook perfect dispersion enable this
magnetically shielded speaker to shine in any room, and with any system.
Unique among all currently produced loudspeakers, Dué employs
the remarkable CDT (Cylindrical Diaphragm Transducer) tweeter - widely acclaimed as the finest high
frequency driver available. The performance benefits of CDT technology
are dramatic. With more diaphragm area than two dozen 1" dome tweeters,
the transducer has virtually unlimited output capability. At the same
time, the lack of voice coils, coil-formers and surrounds means the CDT
has a very low moving mass, so it can respond more quickly to high
frequency transients.
Finally, its cylindrical shape endows the CDT with a dispersion
pattern of 120 degrees and delivers the same response off-axis as it
does on-axis. For the music lover as well as the video enthusiast,
this wide dispersion means that perfect imaging is not limited to a
small "sweet spot"

Frequently Asked Questions
Cabling connections
When wiring up your Dué speakers, it is important that they are connected after
the sub-woofer. Connect from your stereo amplifier both left and right channels to the sub-woofer,
then to the Dué speakers. This ensures that they are protected by the 'high pass crossover'
integral to the Anthony Gallo sub-woofers, preventing them from being damaged by frequencies below their 80Hz
minimum.
If you use a non-Anthony Gallo sub-woofer that does not have a high pass crossover, or you
have to connect the
Dués directly to the amplifer, not via the subwoofer, then you will need to use the
passive high pass filter from Anthony Gallo. This forms the upper part of the MPC-1 passive
sub-woofer from Anthony Gallo Acoustics.
In a Dolby Digital 5.1 home cinema system, when connecting the Dués to the AV amplifier
you should select the "small speaker" setting on the AV amp.
