Speakers Say “Macrom” and speakers are the firstthing that comes to mind. That’s where
our great adventure in the world ofcar audio began over 12 years
ago. As the third millenniumbeings, we are still
protagonists, and ourpassion is unabated.
Speakers are the finaland most important
link in the audiochain since they
are in direct contact with the listener. Anyone choosing aMacrom speaker can be sure tofind the best instrument for bringing music to life in the car.The development of all Macromspeakers is driven by a passionfor music, and in full awarenessof the difficulties associatedwith passenger compartments.Each Macrom speaker is theend result of countless testsand long listening sessions ina great variety of cars because our aim is to optimize speaker performance under real useconditions. Macrom speakers come in threelarge families, ensuring thateveryone will be able to findthe most suitable instrumentto turn their car into a newsource of emotions.

We designed the UNS system becausewe believe that even those who wouldrather not modify their car interior have theright to a quality listening experience.These systems were developed to adapteasily to different car layouts, and havebeen updated to further improve their performance.We have also conceived a three-waysystem aimed at those looking for a surestep ahead in quality. So why put up withthe car manufacturer’s standard systemwhen you can have so much more for justa little extra?
The UNS systems now include a newthree-way kit responding to the needs ofthose seeking a set of superior qualityspeakers for new cars outfitted with double speaker housings.Sturdiness, efficiency and superior powerhandling all mean a big step ahead in theworld of car audio.

The Macrom line of cables and accessories– appropriately named Network – was designed and built to satisfy the mostrefined wiring needs. We make use of cutting-edge technology to ensure that boththe audio signal and electrical power travelalong the network in the most efficient, reliable manner.
However, as you know, absolute quality isnot enough in itself; aesthetics are importanttoo. That’s why our cables and accessoriesboast another important characteristic missing from many other brands: they arewell designed in terms of styling too. You willrecognize a Macrom network cable at once –with its very attractive high-tech titaniumcolor, it blends perfectly not just with ouramplifiers and speakers, but also with all thetrimmings of the latest model cars.That is why a Macrom Network-wired caraudio system impresses not just in terms ofsound, but also by its look, thanks to itsdynamic, refined aesthetics, which make thetrunk line a spectacle of technology and notjust an ordinary…choreographic display ofcolors. And this too is what makes the difference in a real car audio system!
Network
Being aware of the importance of thewiring network, we have developed a rangeof components – from the car battery connections down to the last speaker cable– which are all high-tech, and carefully andsturdily built. We offer music enthusiasts allthe instruments they need to upgrade theirsystem from good to perfect, attending toevery single detail.The Macrom Network line includes dedica-ted cables and accessories for powersupply, as well as line and power signals.
Line cables series Signal cables line
The first part of the audio signal route along the wiring network is the most delicate one.The audio signal is at an embryonic stage from the sourceto the amplifier and is therefore weak and prey to differentnoises that may decrease its quality.Our line cables guarantee the best signal transfer but alsoperfect protection against noise, buzzing, and electro-magnetic disturbance in general. The cables are availablein three families to best meet all types of connection needs.For top convenience, they come fitted with quality RCAconnectors.
M1 LINE CABLEBalance high-end signal cables with ultra-flexible sheath, designed for those seeking maximum quality: 8.3 mm conductor in pure OFC copper; twin twisted wires to improve noise rejection extra low impedance for very long connections without a loss
in signal quality; covered with a special ultra-flexible sheath that simplifies
installation in tight spaces while ensuring good cable condition through time
RCA connectors: solid metal or 24K gold plated to ensure durable,secure contact.

Power cables Protection
Poor power cable wiring may not only cause a drop in performancebut may also put the safety of the system at risk. That’s why wedeveloped the MP power cables, optimized to transfer high currentsunder maximum efficiency and safety: conductors in copper with low oxygen content to avoid oxidation; multi-strand twisted structure to minimize the skin effect and
reduce voltage drops; transparent sheath withstands boiling oil (up to 125°C), acids,
and corrosive vapors.

MP cables are available in two versions for negative andpositive poles and with different spool sizes.
Cables connecting amplifiers and speakers are extremelyimportant for transferring the power signal at maximum fidelity – the last part of the signal’s route along the networkbefore it becomes music. Macrom speaker cables assure an ideal connection between amplifier and speakers without any loss of power or drop in audio quality:
copper strands with ultra-low oxygen content; twisted wire structure for more efficient transfer at
all frequencies without any drop in quality; very low inductance to avoid any variations in
load on the amplifier (speaker impedance + cable

A car audio system must have a wiring network designeddown to the smallest detail to ensure not only maximum transfer quality of power and audio signals, but also safety.Macrom offers a set of accessories for protecting the systemand improving connection efficiency, in order to prevent voltage drops or any hazards due to wear by atmosphericagents and corrosive substances.
MF FUSE-HOLDERSThe following are provided to protect not only amplifiers but also all other appliances in the system: one-piece structure in ultra-low resistance metal alloy; plated with 24K gold; cable gripping hexagonal screws with flat head; chassis in airtight plastic; transparent cover for quick fuse inspection without
dismantling.

Often – especially during musical peaks – thepower supplied by the battery may not be suf-ficient for the amplifiers, which thus have ina-dequate transient response. The Tanks areavailable in 1 farad size, with or without digitalvoltmeter. They were developed to assureexceptional performance – in terms of accu-mulation of energy and, especially, responsespeed – in complete safety. Installed close tothe amplifier, the Tanks offer easy-to-checkimprovements in terms of a solid high and lowdynamic range.
