skin Posted January 15, 2006 Posted January 15, 2006 Just read a review of Sonique's brand new standmount speakers in Audio & Visual Lifestyle Australia magazine. Here are a few short quotes and details: "Sonique's getting set to roll out its new generation of Diamond 500 Series loundspeakers" "The trapezoidal shape of these new Soniques is quite unlike any other cabinet shape I's seen before" "Sonique has chosen a bass/midrange component from driver brand Peerless and one of the best tweeter components available from another well known industry name, Vifa." "Indeed if you're a fan of a loudspeaker that images with almost laser-guidance like accuracy, these will certainly do it for you." "There are two floorstanders in the pipeline to join the 550s and on this showing, Sonique's next generation of loundspeaker looks set to continue Sonique's well earned reputation." Technical Specifications: Drivers: 2 x 134mm bass/mid drivers, 1 x 26mm dual concentric tweeter. Cabinet Configuration: 2-way, 3-driver, trapezoidial time aligned, rear ported. Frequency Response: 55-20kHz (+/-3dB) Power Handling: 220 watts RMS (maximum) Nominal Impedance: 4 ohms Crossover Type: Minimum phase, 1st order Sensitivity: 90dB Crossover Frequency: 2800Hz Price: $1,900 pair ($2,499 pair SE model) And they look super sexy too!
