NOLA CHAMP S3
The Nola Champ S3 is an under-$10,000 per pair floorstanding open baffle model incorporating all-new drivers and technologies. Measuring 42 inches high by 9-1/2 inches wide by 12-inches deep, the new Champ S3 is a 3-1/2-way design that employs five drivers. The tweeter and midrange drivers are housed in Nola’s signature open-baffle configuration, which eliminates “box” enclosure colourations. The Nola Champ S3 features Nola’s silk dome 1-inch tweeter and twin 3-inch midrange drivers mounted in a dipole configuration. The dual 6 1/2-inch low-mass bass drivers operate in separate, tuned chambers.
The Champ S3’s crossover network utilizes two hand-wired point-to-point boards with Mundorf oil capacitors and Nordost monofilament silver wire in critical audio path locations. The Champ S3 is supplied with a matching base, and floor spikes, and is available in an American cherry wood finish. The Nola Champ S3 is now shipping at a suggested retail price of $9,500 per pair. An optional double-ball-bearing isolation platform is available for $3,000 per pair suggested retail.
