AUDIOVECTOR LAUNCHES TRAPEZE REIMAGINED LOUDSPEAKER

The Audiovector Trapeze Reimagined is a new loudspeaker which takes classic design cues and pairs them with the latest audio technology.

You can hear the new Audiovector Trapeze Reimagined at High End Munich 2024.

1979 AUDIOVECTOR TRAPEZ

In 1979, Ole Klifoth launched the Trapez his first commercial speaker. The mother of all future Audiovector speakers, the Trapez was created to reproduce the true sound of a concert hall. The new Trapeze Reimagined follows that very same principle and features modern technology whilst paying homage to the company’s very first loudspeaker.

AUDIOVECTOR TRAPEZE REIMAGINED -TRAPEZE Ri

The Audiovector Trapeze Reimagined, or Audiovector Trapeze Ri, features classic Danish styling. Due to the unique design, the front of the speaker is angled towards the listener, whilst its rear remains parallel to the wall. The cabinet itself is hand-veneered for a sleek fit and finish, and braced for low distortion and colouration.

CABINET

Inside the cabinet, Audiovector’s Diffraction Absorption Control, a thick layer of natural felt around the mid and treble drivers absorbs reflected energy. This allows the drivers to function as point sources. The shape of the iconic angled cabinet eliminates standing waves so the conditions are perfect for the speaker’s drivers.

DIVERS

The Audiovector 5” midrange driver uses a Neodynium magnet for maximum power and control. There a patented distortion-shorting cap in the magnet. The light membrane features a corrugated ‘concertina’ surround for the superfast performance required to blend with the AMT treble driver. The in-house bass driver features a 12” membrane and 4” voice coil. A rubber ‘concertina’ surround, is employed.

CROSSOVER

The linear phase crossover incorporates precision components, each specifically manufactured for the purpose. Just as the proprietary original Trapez used 6 dB per octave linear phase crossover topology, so too does the new Trapeze Reimagined.

Other in-house technologies include cryogenically treated tin flash/copper capacitors, air cooled metal housed resistors for bass and midrange, an array of film resistors in the treble to avoid induction distortion, and precision wound coils all falling within +/- 1% tolerance levels.

The Trapeze Reimagined uses double mechanical decoupling, a 2-layer aluminium plinth incorporating built-in decoupling via carbon steel ball bearings and Audiovector spikes.
