S Models - Slim and Super tweeter. An elegant and
modernistic hi-fi design, offering fantastic realism and
sound-staging - and response to 30kHz - essential to get
the full benefit from vinyl sources.
MonoPulse hi-fi loudspeakers are all custom made, enabling
you to choose from a wide and attractive range of colour
combinations.
Model
32S
£895
8 ohms nominal, 6.5 ohms minimum, 88dB, 32Hz to 30kHz, 100w
max, 50w continuous.
The S Models are the only hi-fi loudspeakers with three
drive-units in full impulse and time alignment. They
deliver musical leading edges with every frequency
component from 30Hz to 30kHz in full synchronism. The
result is fantastic realism and sound-staging. This is the
lowest cost, custom-made, perfectionist-design, hi-fi
loudspeaker in the market.
On the Model 32S, 140mm hi-tech Aerogel bass/mid drivers
give big bass down to 32Hz. The main HF units are 31mm
aluminium-wound, with silk domes. The top end response is
then taken through to an airy 30kHz by top-mounted
piezoelectric super-tweeters.
Model
62S
£1,195
8 ohms nominal, 6.1 ohms minimum, 89dB, 25Hz to 30kHz, 200w
maximum, 100w continuous.
This is a slim but powerful hi-fi beauty, in a package just
2cm deeper, than the elegant 32S. It shares the the
piezoelectric super-tweeters, but embodies precision Danish
HF units and 160mm LF drivers with 54mm voice-coils wound
in hexagonal-section aluminium.
The Model 62S handles 200 watts maximum power, and the LF
units are rated at 500 watts for 10ms transient power –
with a bass response right down to 25Hz
The height is 92cm and the width 17cm.
This modernistic hi-fi design is available in the full
range of ten cloth colours and five steel colours.
The 62S shares the same slim styling, being only 1.5cm
deeper
A
Models - Audiophile. These are no compromise hi-fi
loudspeaker designs, with quarter-inch rolled-steel clamped
to all-bonded cabinets via high-hysteresis-loss polymer,
for unrivalled deadness and minimum spurious emissions. The
HF units are then separately suspended on the steel to give
absolute precision of impulse and time alignment, and
prevent intermodulation between the two drive-units.
Model
42A
£1,495
8 ohm, 92dB, 28Hz to 25kHz, 130w max.
This is a hi-fi loudspeaker designed for users who don't
want compromise. The HF units, separately suspended on the
quarter-inch steels, give absolute precision of impulse and
time alignment. These HF units are ferrofluid-cooled, with
28mm treated-textile domes and neodymium magnets, and are
rated at 500 watts for 10ms.
Steel bars on the front are for vibration damping. Here
they are fitted externally in matching finish as an option.
Otherwise they are fitted internally
There is long and tightly controlled bass from the big,
220mm, LF drivers. Add a smooth treble from those 28mm
diameter, ferrofluid-cooled HF units - so for Hi-Hi News,
"High frequencies were richly detailed, ensuring that
instruments buried way down in the mix are clearly
discernable as individual".
Model
82A
£2,495
Purity
and Power. Hi-Fi Choice BEST BUY. In the same package as
the 42A, but with 550 watts per channel from LF units with
Kevlar cones, 4 layer voice-coils, and 40oz magnets,
coupled to 25kHz, 28mm, HF units.
8 ohm, 90dB. Frequency response from below 20Hz (as
measured by Hi-Fi Choice) then up to 25kHz. Power handling
is 300 watts continuous, 550 watts nominal maximum – and
1,500 watts for 10ms.
There is no other hi-fi loudspeaker which will deliver the
timing purity of leading edges and impulses, with this
power. Simply none at any price. For Hi-Fi Choice "The
first thing one notices is just how coherent and 'real' it
sounds.
The Model 82A is almost unbelievable in its combination of
realism, detail, bass and power.
The main drivers have a very large excursion before they
become non-linear, so even at high volumes with high bass
content, you can relax in the sound, and never get that
uneasy feeling that the units are being overloaded. Add the
MonoPulse realism, sub 20Hz bass, and the 25kHz
high-frequency extension, and you have the ultimate hi-fi
loudspeaker.
All A Models are wrapped with quarter-inch rolled-steel
plate, etched to reveal the full patina of the rolling
mill. This is clamped to the all-bonded main enclosure via
high hysteresis-loss polymer.
The HF units are separately suspended on these surrounds to
isolate them from the main enclosure, to give accuracy of
high frequencies and very low levels of intermodulation
from acoustic coupling through the structure. Air-path
coupling is also minimised by an acoustic break between
drive units.
The mass of the steel surrounds and the damping from the
vibration deadening mounting also ensures minimum
resonances and spurious emissions from the main enclosure.
