Overview
The In Vita 3 is a compromise only in terms of size, but the ideal solution for those who can not accommodate a floorstanding speaker. It is also equipped with a 170 mm bass-midrange driver made of Heco's famous long-fiber "kraft paper", which combines low weight with high stability. In the bass range, this extends down to an impressive 30 Hz; upwards, the Fluktus tweeter with its silk composite material is also capable of reproducing frequencies up to 43 kHz. The In Vita 3 can also be combined with an active subwoofer, of course.
Thanks to the 170 mm bass-midrange driver, the sturdy MDF cabinet of the In Vita is also only 205 mm wide and offers perfect proportions with a height of 377 mm. Baffle and top are finished in high-gloss, optionally black or white lacquer, the side panels take up the respective housing color in a matte variant. Despite the compact dimensions, each In Vita 3 weighs in at a hefty 9.1 kilos, another indication of the high-quality workmanship.
Details such as the flow-optimized bass reflex tubes on both sides prove the attention to detail and the crossover equipped with the highest quality components allows a switchable tweeter adjustment of + 2 dB. The connection terminal is prepared for bi-wiring and bi-amping and thus allows a variety of operating options for the ambitious hi-fi fan.
