The Whiplash Audio 'Pluto' is a small speaker developed for desktop systems and bookshelf applications. Surprisingly effective in near field and far field applications with stunning imaging and clarity. It utilizes a non-uniform baffle design intended to defeat frequency coupling caused by baffle effect. The end result is a very smooth response and greatly improved imaging.

The Whiplash 1-1/2 way design principle: Whiplash Audio 1-1/2 way design principle takes into account that the human ear is most sensitive to the frequencies between 300 and 6,000 hz. In the Pluto design the woofer is nearly full range with a crossover point at 10khz allowing the majority of music information to be handled by a single driver. This principle reduces phase alignment problems and crossover distortion typically found in multi-driver systems. The result is a wide soundstage with very low distortion and no perceivable transition from the separate drivers.
