Using the AV 5150 Active Isobarik Bass Loudspeaker

Any AV or hi-fi system can be dramatically enhanced by the addition of the AV 5150 to extend the bass performance well below the limit of full-range loudspeakers.

The 5150 is an omni-directional low-frequency loudspeaker, incorporating 12" Isobarik coupled drivers with integrated active amplification. This loudspeaker delivers its impact without intruding or detracting from realism, with an accurate tonal performance for both music and cinema sound effects.

The AV 5150 offers great flexibility in configuring the system providing extreme low bass enhancement to a system which already has capable bass speakers or providing balance to a system based on small speakers with limited bass capability. The AV 5150 can be configured to blend in with and enhance almost any system configuration.
