i'm posting the following for my long term friends who have a room at T.H.E. Show. and i will be hanging out in this room quite a bit as i am very interested personally in most of the brand new gear they will be 'World' debuting (North American Debut of the dart carts).
***********************
This will be a bittersweet show for us. As you may have already heard, our dear friend Jonathan Tinn recently passed away. We are doing the show to honor his legacy along with celebrating his ingenuity and cutting edge creativity. The SYSTEM by Evolution Acoustics was his latest project. He worked with his Chief Designer, Kevin Malmgren on this for the past few years. He was extremely excited and was looking forward to the world premier. It is truly our honor to present them to you at T.H.E. Show 2023.
Here's a rundown of our line up in
The Audio Association - Bristol 3 Ballroom
Evolution Acoustics
We are proud to announce that Evolution Acoustics will be presenting the world premier of
SYSTEM, an ultra high-end user-configurable reference product, enabling audiophiles the ability to custom design a statement speaker system that will accomodate their room, electronics, and personal listening tastes. Designed around the concept of modules,
SYSTEM, or
Select
Your
Speakers
Through
Exact
Modularity, offers the ability to expand or change as your room grows or electronics change.
There are three primary modules to choose from and configure.
SYSTEM CORE is the foundation module of each speaker and contains the silk diaphragm air motion transformer and proprietary CELL midrange drive units coupled with either a two-way EXACT crossover filter network recommended for low power and valve applications or a three-way EXACT crossover filter network recommended for high power solid state amplification.
SYSTEM AMP is an active low frequency module containing proprietary CELL woofers for use with the two-way CORE or as a standalone subwoofer, utilizing an user adjustable bass amplification circuit to help fine tune bass reproduction to desired taste.
SYSTEM BASS is a passive low frequency module containing proprietary CELL woofers for use with the three-way CORE or as an add-on to AMP to aid in ease of bass reproduction. These acoustic suspension modules offer limitless configurations to handle a small sound studio to a large dedicated listening hall, with the flexibility to run on either single ended triodes or kilowatt solid state monoblocks.
All
SYSTEM configurations will carry identical sound characteristics because all modules contain identical drivers and crossovers. It's just a matter of scale, ease of presentation, and active vs passive.
SYSTEM is not a line of loudspeakers where you have to invest more to get better quality of sound,
SYSTEM is one statement loudspeaker that adjusts to fit all.
In addition to this revolutionary new product, we will also debut our
SYSTEM line of cables, a new statement in cable performance. Of course, it goes without saying,
SYSTEM loudspeakers and cables have perfect synergy and will maximize total
SYSTEM performance to the highest level.
(i already own the
SYSYEM power cables for my dart 468's and
SYSTEM speaker cables, they rock!...MIke)
