Details

The PMC FB1i Floor Standing Speaker was the first wholly domestic model from the PMC stable. From its humble drawing-board beginnings to the present day it has become an audio legend, winning awards on all continents from the leading audiophile critics. The PMC FB1i Floor Standing Speaker has even received critical acclaim from respected professional magazines for its ability as a true reference-recording monitor.

The PMC i series upgrades of the new SONOLEX™ tweeter, PMC designed bass driver, improved cabinet integrity and optimised crossover network has once again raised the bar in what can be achieved in a 2-Way floorstanding speaker. These significant technical improvements give greater speed, transparency and a wider window onto the performance whether it is music or movie surround.

The PMC FB1i Floor Standing Speaker, with its 6 1/2 bass unit and extended ATL™ provides a deeper and richer feel than the smaller models and therefore excels in a medium to large listening room.

QED Silver Anniversary XT Speaker Cable Per Metre

RRP: £7.50 SAVE: £0.55

Our Price: £6.95

The New QED Silver Anniversary-XT has been specifically designed as the natural replacement for the multi-award winning Silver Anniversary speaker cable. Designed with performance in mind, the Silver Anniversary-XT speaker cable boasts all of the characteristics associated with Silver Anniversary but with the added enhancement of the Aircore technology found in the prestigious X-Tube series.

The QED Silver Anniversary-XT successfully introduces QED's high end 'X-Tube' technology into a mid-priced product for the first time. The precise cylindrical construction of the silver-plated, 99.999% pure, oxygen free copper cables reduces the distortion caused by 'skin effect'. The result is a completely neutral speaker cable that allows good hi-fi and home cinema equipment to shine.

The QED Silver Anniversary-XT is a standard 'figure 8' configuration and is attractively finished, with each silver-plated core visible through a flexible 3.9mm diameter clear polyethylene outer sheath. For ease of assembly and to ensure correct speaker 'phasing' the inner spacers, which maintain the cylindrical configuration, are each coloured coded red or white and are 'crushable' to allow straightforward crimping with 'Airloc' speaker plugs.

At low frequencies both X-TUBE™ and conventional stranded/solid core speaker cable convey signals in a linear way. At higher frequencies X-TUBE retains a near-linear signal transfer, whereas the conventional stranded/solid core cable fails to efficiently conduct higher frequencies uniformly across the entire conductor area.

The effect of this is to reduce the actual cross-sectional area of the cable at 15kHz to less than 75% of that at low frequencies. The result is induced distortion and a compromise in the performance of the cable.

X-TUBE with Aircore™ technology exhibits much lower self-inductance and is therefore less affected by this problem. The use of an innovative Polyethylene aircore enables a reduction in loop inductance to levels only usually achievable by using more costly and difficult to terminate cables.

Unique SPOFC triple braid 5 x 16 x 0.1mm
Compressible Teflon Aircore for ease of termination
Low resistance, low capacitance and low inductance
Easy strip Polyethylene outer jacket
2 x 1.88mm2 conductor cross sectional area
****PLEASE NOTE THAT TERMINATION**** IS NOT INCLUDED

Polk S50 Small Tower Speakers (Pair)

£499.00

The Polk S50 Speaker has been built with home cinema in mind, bringing the expansive surround sound of a movie theatre to the comfort of your living room. With high-resolution certification, a new dynamic balance designed acoustic array, precision crossovers, anti-diffraction grille, modern cabinet styling and exclusive Power Port bass enhancing technology, the Polk S50 will elevate the sound when watching movies or, listening to music, or playing videogames.

The S50's new dynamic balance designed acoustic array will ensure clean, full-range sound no matter what your listening to, regardless of whether you are simply listening to music or upgrading your home cinema setup with an advanced Atmos configuration. This patented technology will analyse the speaker's entire electro-acoustic and mechanical system for improved material selection and more efficient geometry. The Dynamic Balance technology will pinpoint and eliminate issues that reduce speaker performance before they become a part of the finished product.

The Polk S50 Speaker will deliver high-resolution audio thanks to the newly designed Terylene dome tweeter. This tweeter features curvilinear formers that extend response and lower resonance. The powerful ceramic motor structure inside the S50 will also lower system resonance and extend low frequency response and provide better dispersion in the critical mid-range, thus delivering clear and detailed high frequency response; therefore a more realistic reproduction of vocals and instruments can be achieved. The S50 is certified and capable of delivering 40kHz, supporting the latest the latest high-resolution audio files.

Mica-reinforced polypropylene cones with butyl rubber surrounds, massive ceramic motor structures and high-temperature Conex fibre spiders all combine to create the custom drivers within the Polk S50 Speaker that work to deliver exceptionally high efficiency, producing clean, clear bass, better linearity, lower distortion and greater durability.

The power port in the Polk S50 Speaker uses a patented design that will smoothly transition the air flow from the speaker port to the listening area. It will also achieve extension of the overall bass port, and will provide a greater surface area to eliminate turbulence and distortion, producing bigger, more musical, deep bass impact. The S50 will offer 3dB more bass response output than if it were to have a more conventional port.

The Polk S50 Speaker will work with even the most modestly-powered amplifier or receiver. It does not matter whether you are connecting the S50 to a new digital processor, or an older rig, the sound reproduction will remain spacious, clear and realistic. The S50 is also compatible with the latest Dolby and DTS surround sound technologies. A two-way cascading tapered crossover array will give the listener a seamless and lifelike soundstage, regardless of where you are seated within the listening space, eliminating the sweet spot and dispersing it all around you.

The cabinet has been crafted to remain strong, rigid and acoustically inert, reducing unwanted internal standing waves for less audible colouration. A non-resonant Meddite MDF construction with extra bracing and minimum thick baffles will ensure a more lifelike sound. The cabinet not only performs well but it looks amazing too. With curved edges that offer a sensual yet powerful look, the S50, which comes in a black washed walnut finish, will fit in any type of home décor. An anti-diffraction magnetic grille has been computer modelled for a precise fit and an enhanced and stylish look. The grille will not only look fantastic, but it has been designed to minimise sonic interference. Dual-floor compatible feet provide improved stability and bass coupling to the floor. These speaker tower feet are designed for use on both carpeted and hard floors.

Setup has been made easy for the S50, with gold-plated 5-way binding posts ensuring the most direct, efficient and lossless connection possible.
