# The etymology of the name: Duodecaton
The name is a sophisticated portmanteau derived from two Ancient Greek roots, perfectly capturing the technical soul of the speakers.

"Duodeca-" (δωδεκα): Representing the number Twelve. This refers directly to the twelve high-performance drivers standing in vertical formation within the array.

"-ton" (τόνος): Meaning Tone, Tension, or Sound. Originally, this term described the tension of a string required to produce a musical pitch.
