Morel Hybrid 52 5.25 Inch 2-Way Component Speakers

Now in their fifth generation, the Hybrid systems deliver a further refined listening experience. Their balance of resolution, power, and efficiency is optimised across a wide range of music genres.

Each woofer uses a 54mm (2.1") Hexatech aluminium EVC, a DPC one-piece cone, and a hybrid double magnet motor. The handcrafted MT300 soft dome tweeter uses Acuflex technology for a natural, non-fatiguing sound. The line is finished with brushed aluminium trim throughout.

Key Features

C.A.R Filter

Controlled Acoustic Resistance — the C.A.R. Filter improves acoustic loading by controlling airflow within the driver, mimicking the effect of a cabinet. It improves power handling by 30% and provides greater control over cone movement for improved bass dynamics.

EVC Motor

Morel's EVC technology uses large voice coils to improve heat dissipation, power handling, and linearity.

Handcrafted Acuflex Soft Dome

A specially engineered damping compound is hand-applied to the soft dome, adding rigidity and damping to improve clarity and bandwidth. The Acuflex diaphragm exhibits controlled cancelling break-up, where each break-up mode is counteracted by another in the opposite direction, enabling a smooth frequency response.

Hexatech Aluminium Voice Coil

Made from 100% aluminium wire shaped in a honeycomb pattern, the Hexatech voice coil reduces air gaps in the coil windings, increasing efficiency by up to 20%. Its low mass is a key contributor to the fast transient response Morel drivers are known for.

Hybrid Magnet Motor

The Hybrid motor combines a ferrite magnet with a powerful neodymium magnet, creating a compact, lightweight, and powerful motor system. More amplified power is converted into sonic energy, giving strong performance even in a small driver.

Damped Polymer Cone

The Hybrid woofers use Morel's Damped Polymer Cones (DPC) — one-piece formed cones with high self-damping for clean, low-distortion sound.
