Product Description
The SA-2 combines a 4" (100mm) mid/bass unit with a soft-dome tweeter, each one housed in its own steel sphere. The units are carefully aligned for phase and time coherence, for precise imaging, and for delivering integrated, lifelike sound. The units are based on Morel's External Voice Coil (EVC) design, in which aluminum Hexatech coil surrounds an extremely powerful magnet motor to achieve high efficiency and distortion free sound. The mid/bass unit's motor is rear vented, allowing strong air circulation that cools the voice coil which enables high power handling. Its damped polymer composite cone is constructed (surround and center cap) of one single piece for linearity and precision. An extended frequency range, all the way down to the midrange band, attaining outstanding tonal quality, characterizes the tweeter. The crossover is made of first-class components, hardwired for high integrity.
Amazon.com Product Description
For the past 30 years, Israel-based Morel has been one of the best-kept secrets in the audio industry. Instead of marketing their speakers directly to the consumers, they've been quietly and convincingly providing ultra-high quality drivers for other loudspeaker manufacturers. Morel's technology can be found in speakers manufactured all over the world, including many top brands in the United States. Thankfully, all that's changing. Morel is now setting its sights on the consumer market with its own branded speakers. The award-winning SoundSpot SA-2 Satellite Speakers are Morel's top-of-the-line speakers designed to please even the most discerning of audiophiles looking for an unparalleled home-theater experience.

The SA-2's styish design looks great with any decor. They're wall-mountable, too.
A Compact and Smart Design
The days of filling your living space with fifty-pound speaker boxes that look like they belong on an Aerosmith concert stage are thankfully long gone. Morel knows that if you're going to invest in serious audio for your home, you'll want your system to reflect your tastes in every respect. The award-winning sphere-shaped SA-2 Satellite Speakers weigh all of 2.8 pounds and stand at a compact seven inches in height. Housed in smart, white, steel enclosures with oversized gold-plated binding posts, these speakers are small enough to blend discreetly into any modern decor. (If you want these speakers as part of a full system, Morel also offers these speakers as part of its Applause MKII SoundSpot system.) The speakers are set on circular mounting plates, which can either be screwed onto a wall, placed on a suitable flat surface, or mounted on one of Morel's ST-95 Speaker Stands. The stands neatly conceal the speaker wires and complement the system design nicely.

Quality Assurance: The Morel Difference
Morel's peerless quality control is a key selling point. Every speaker with the Morel name on it is built, tested, and inspected in Morel's factory in Israel. Except for the production of the steel speaker housing, which is outsourced, Morel is directly responsible for everything.

Morel drivers are based on what the company describes as "Hexatech technology," which employs a hexagonal aluminum wire voice-coil. Meanwhile, the speaker construction is based on its own "External Voice Coil," or EVC, technology, which uses a magnet with a shaped pole that fits inside the aluminum voice coil rather than around it. According to Morel, the EVC design offers higher efficiency and greater power handling accuracy. Plus, the design provides as much power response as conventional systems five times larger. In other words, what the speakers may lack in size, they more than make up for in power.

The SoundSpot SA-2s are built with neodymium magnets, which are up to 20 times more powerful than conventional magnet systems. They each include a four-inch woofer with a 1.125-inch liquid cooled Hexatech aluminum voice coil. The speakers can handle 120 watts with a frequency response of 80-22,000Hz (-5dB) and are carefully aligned for phase and time coherence, for precise imaging, and for delivering integrated, lifelike sound.

Note: New Morel speakers and components require 40 hours of "break-in" time before you'll achieve optimal performance. The response of any speaker will depend on how free the woofer cones are to move, and since new speaker components are bound to have stiff suspensions, a "loosening up" period should be allowed before passing final judgement on the system's performance.
