PERLISTEN AUDIO R SERIES WITH THX® CERTIFICATION IS THEIR NEW LOUDSPEAKER RANGE
Perlisten Audio will debut the new R Series at the Florida Audio Expo 2022, February 18th to 20th in Tampa, including the Perlisten R7t.
The Perlisten R7t is a four-way bass reflex/acoustic suspension speaker that features performance like that of its larger sibling, the S7t.
PERLISTEN R7T
The new R7t tower is the centrepiece of the R Series lineup, offering a true trickle-down design based on the S Series.
The patent-pending Directivity Pattern Control (DPC) waveguide is based on three 26mm domes. Three silk diaphragms, developed in-house by Perlisten Audio, deal with midrange and treble. The four woofers, which measure 165mm each, are made from the company’s proprietary HPF (Hybrid Pulp Formulation) cone material, which brings new life to one of the oldest materials used in loudspeaker design. HPF is a new cone formulation comprised of mixed long fibre hardwood, bamboo, and wool. The woofers may be aligned as either bass reflex or acoustic suspension, depending upon the listener’s tastes or application.
THX CERTIFIED DOMINUS
The Perlisten R7t is a THX Certified Ultra left-centre-right (LCR) channel speaker solution, and is THX Certified Dominus when used as a surround speaker. THX Certified Dominus is the newest and largest performance certification class, bridging the gap between large home theatre speakers and those used in commercial movie theatres and exhibits.
