Description

The UMU-191M Mark3, a sister product, is a speaker specialized for jazz reproduction. On the other hand, this model, the UMU-171M Mark2, features an Alnico unit that is particularly suited for reproducing string instruments such as the cello and violin, allowing you to enjoy fresh, vibrant chamber music.
It is equipped with the Aucharm-made Alnico 16cm full-range unit, developed based on the Diatone P610. This is a rare unit that reproduces the healing tone we have been searching for over many years.

A graceful, soft and feminine sound resonates, with an indescribable sense of melancholy and a mood that lingers.
Depending on the voice quality, in female ballads, the singing voice carries a gentle sensuality, while male vocals are enveloped in a warm, embracing tone.
The sorrowful timbre of instruments like the cello and violin evokes a heart-wrenching, bittersweet feeling.
For reproducing such a melancholic sound, the combination of Alnico magnet with paper cone is ideal, and the 16cm full-range unit, Aucharm HF254, meets these expectations perfectly.

To achieve a richer tone, the enclosure has been finished with a beautiful mirror-like coating. The surface finish of the enclosure subtly alters the sound quality.

While the UMU-191M Mark is known for its straight, punchy high-resolution sound, the UMU-171M Mark2 offers a warm, soothing sound quality. To reflect this sound, we have given it the sub-name “Romantic Healing Sound.”
We confidently recommend this speaker to those who enjoy healing music such as classical chamber music, vocal music, choral pieces, pop, jazz vocals, Bossa nova, and Enka (Japanese ballads).
