High end nyhet : Pass Labs SR 1

Pris: $25000

Four-way floorstanding system

The SR1 has been designed to harness the classic mass controlled piston model, in which the speakers radiating surface behaves as a rigid surface. This yields a well-defined characteristic in the spectral region where the sound is proportional to the electrical current through the voice coil.

The cone surface must maintain its shape over the frequency band
without breaking up into resonant vibrational modes.
The suspension and motor system must remain linear with high excursion.

Nextel-coated cones and a Crescendo tweeter from the renowned Seas of Norway.
10-octave audio range without significantly leaving the piston region.

The SR1 uses dual enclosures. A large bass enclosure with ten-inch and
eight-inch drivers handles the bottom four octaves, and an adjustable smaller
enclosure carries the midrange and the tweeter.

The SR1 is available as a bi-amplified or quad-amplified system, complete
with active crossover filters.

Impedance does not dip below 4 ohms
Sensitivity 90 dB
