ℹ Product Information
Golden Ear Super Centre Reference - Centre Speaker
Prepare for an audial revolution with the Golden Ear Super Centre Reference - Centre Speaker, a high-tier speaker engineered for passionate audiophiles seeking an exceptional home theatre experience. This superlative evolution in sound amplification distinguishes itself by seamlessly melding into the aesthetic of your Triton Towers or Aon Bookshelf loudspeakers. Cleverly designed to minimise its visual footprint while enhancing acoustic performance, it integrates a unique D’Appolito Array of newly developed long-throw 5-1/4˝ bass/midrange drivers which are meticulously positioned around the signature High Velocity Folded Ribbon (HVFR) tweeters—effectively bridging together bass and treble sounds for seamless sound blending. Its top-mounted low-frequency radiators extend bass response, ensuring crisp and clear low-end frequencies, while its spider-leg cast baskets cut down on internal reflection and prevent interference. The power-packed SuperCentres produce an uncanny realism, capturing fine audio details with high resolution. Subtlety is its strength, too, as it expertly navigates between delivering power for dynamic range and pacing for impact. Ideal for expansive GoldenEar home theatre configurations, it's only 35" wide – yet packed with arguably the best internal technology to deliver aural pleasure. With high-gauss magnets, high-temperature Kapton voice coils, and a linear-phase crossover network that eliminates stray capacitances, the SuperCentre offers dramatically improved clarity. Each unit boasts separate internal chambers: two smaller ones each housing a precision-engineered 5-1/4" driver, and a larger central chamber that forms the heart of this speaker, containing two additional 5-1/4" drivers. Grab a piece of this audial wonder, and transform your listening experience into an unforgettable adventure. Your home theatre is one step away from delivering jaw-dropping performances night after night.
