BLACKWOOD ARTANIS ACTIVE LOUDSPEAKER SYSTEM AT AUDIO SHOW DELUXE 2024

Blackwood believe that music is more than just sound; it’s an emotional experience. Their loudspeakers are designed and handcrafted to ensure that “every note and nuance is faithfully reproduced”.

Blackwood offers a range of customization options, allowing you to tailor your loudspeakers to your individual tastes. Whether it’s the finish, the drivers, or the overall design, Blackwood say they will work closely with you to create a speaker that’s uniquely yours.

BLACKWOOD ARTANIS

Blackwood will present Artanis, active loudspeaker system which is constructed using heavily braced beech plywood. The result is a sturdy, aesthetically pleasing enclosure that complements the exceptional audio performance. It offers a variety of input options to ensure seamless integration into your setup. The DSP is equipped with advanced room correction algorithms, which can compensate for problematic reflections, nulls, and peaks in your listening space. The active loudspeakers incorporate high-performance amplifiers integrated with the DSP, ensuring optimal power delivery to each driver unit.
