Before you start

• The nominal impedance of this speaker system is 6 Ω.

Connect the speaker system to an amplifier with a load

impedance ranging from 4 Ωto 16 Ω(a model with “4 Ωto 16

Ω” displayed on the speaker output terminals).

In order to prevent damage to the speaker system resulting

from input overload, please observe the following precautions:

• Do not supply power to the speaker system in excess of the

maximum permissible input.

• When using a graphic equalizer to emphasize loud sounds in

the high-frequency range, do not use excessive amplifier

volume.

• Do not try to force a low-powered amplifier to produce loud

volumes of sound (the amplifier’s harmonic distortion will be

increased, and you may damage the speaker).

Caution: installation

• When placing this unit, ensure that it is firmly secured and

avoid areas where it may be likely to fall and cause injury in the

event of a natural disaster (such as an earthquake).

• Do not attach these speakers to the wall or ceiling. They may

fall off and cause injury.

• Do not install your speakers overhead on the ceiling or wall. If

improperly attached, the speaker grille can fall and cause

damage or personal injury.

• Switch off and unplug your AV equipment and consult the

instructions when connecting up components. Make sure you

use the correct connecting cables.

Caution: in use

• Do not place the speaker on an unstable surface. It could

present a hazard if it falls, as well as damaging the equipment.

• Do not use the speaker to output distorted sound for long

periods of times. This can result in a fire hazard.

• Do not sit or stand on the speaker, or let children play on the

speaker.

• Do not put large or heavy objects on top of the speaker.

• Do not place magnetic objects such as screwdrivers or iron

parts near the tweeter or midrange. Since the speakers use

strong magnets, the objects may be attracted, causing injury

or damaging the diaphragm.

About the EX series

The EX series, incorporating the abundant technological know-how behind Pioneer's flagship TAD speaker series, was developed

with the goal of creating the ultimate speaker possible in its price range.

The design and production of the EX series result from an international effort that represents the finest in Pioneer's speaker technology.

Technology behind the S-3EX

CST

The core driver of the system is the Coherent Source Transducer

(CST), which draws on the technology used in TAD. The tweeter

diaphragm is mounted concentrically within the apex of the

midrange cone and provides a point source of sound from 400 Hz

to 100 kHz. The CST ensures a perfect spectral balance between

the direct and reflected sounds that arrive at the listener's ears,

providing a more consistent sound throughout the listening room

and improved imaging capability.

Ceramic Graphite Diaphragm

The CST's tweeter features a ceramic graphite diaphragm that

provides top-level strength and dampening characteristics that

are practically unrivaled by any other available materials currently

used in high-end audio speaker systems. Ceramic graphite's

lightness and exceptional strength combine to create speakers

whose diaphragm resonance can be pushed far beyond their

audible range.

Magnesium Alloy Diaphragm

The CST's midrange features a magnesium alloy diaphragm

whose characteristic lightness and high inner loss provide

excellent transience and minimal coloration of midrange sounds.

Bass Drivers

The bass driver pictured below serves as the foundation of the S-

3EX speaker system. The driver's strength is the result of the

Aramid/Carbon composite material, originally created during the

development of the S-1EX, that is used in its diaphragm. Pioneer's

exclusive LDMC magnetic circuit technology has been

incorporated in order to preserve linearity from low to high output

levels and minimize distortion.

Bass Enclosure Construction

The unique form of the S-3EX is based upon logical necessity. In

order to synchronize the arrival time of sound from the CST and

the two bass drivers, each driver is mounted upon a baffle that

serves to create a highly delicate curve known as the "precision

curve" (see illustration below). Made of up to 100 mm thick MDF

(Medium Density Fiberboard), this baffle is, moreover, strong

enough to contain the force of the drivers. Additionally, the bass

port has been carved out of an extremely thick block of MDF,

resulting in the reduction of wind noise for clear, deep bass.

Crossover Networks

The crossover networks use only the finest components. Air cored

coils, noninductive resistors, and film capacitors in the signal path

are all carefully chosen and optimized for the CST driver to provide

the greatest transparency to the signal. The bass drivers use

silicon steel plate core inductors that minimize distortion and loss

during energy transfer. All components are connected directly to

their respective wiring materials, instead of a printed circuit-

board, allowing for minimal loss and maximum performance.

Collaboration with Air Studios

Since its establishment by George Martin in 1969, London,

England's Air Studios has earned unequivocal respect from

scores of artists who recognize it as the world's premier recording

studio. The Air Studios seal that was awarded to the S-3EX

indicates that these speakers are capable of producing the high-

quality sound demanded by the world's top-class sound creators.
