Model FS-4000 and FS-5000 Front Stage Loudspeakers

The Front Stage Loudspeakers are integrated high-performance loudspeak- ers containing all three front channel speakers (LCR) in a single elegant, slim enclosure.These speakers can be either wall-mounted above or below the video display,or can be placed on a shelf or on the television itself with the included rocker base.

These units are intended for use with the latest generation of flat screen video displays. The advanced design of these speakers delivers detailed, articulate sound for a dramatic viewing experience. Each of the three separate internal chambers contains a complete speaker system.In the FS- 4000, each speaker is comprised of one 4 ½-inch (115mm) GLH (Graph- ite Loaded Homopolymer) woofer, one 4 ½-inch (115mm) GLH Pressure Driver, and an advanced 1-inch (25mm) ferrofluid-cooled, damped soft- dome tweeter.

In the FS-5000,each speaker utilizes two high-power 4 ½-inch GLH woof- ers and the 1-inch (25mm) soft-dome tweeter.

The drivers are mounted in an acoustically inert,heavily braced MDF enclo- sure and are magnetically shielded so they may be placed close to any type of video monitor without concern of video interference. Note also that the tweeters are mounted above the centerline of the woofers. This arrange- ment results in a smoother in-room frequency response, for greater clarity and detail.

For accurate reproduction of a multi-channel soundtrack, the three front- channel speakers must have the same essential tonal balance.Since the Front Stage Loudspeakers are comprised of three identical speakers mounted in a common enclosure, they deliver an exceptionally smooth and coherent

sonic signature across the front soundstage.

FS-5000, FS-4000 specifications

Atlantic Technology is renowned for producing high-quality audio products that cater to both home theater enthusiasts and audiophiles. Among their diverse lineup, the FS-4000 and FS-5000 models stand out as remarkable floor-standing speaker systems designed to deliver an immersive listening experience.

The FS-4000 features a three-way design, incorporating dual 5.25-inch polygraphite woofers, a 4-inch midrange driver, and a 1-inch silk dome tweeter. This configuration ensures a rich, balanced sound profile, capable of handling a wide range of audio frequencies. With a frequency response that extends down to 34 Hz, the FS-4000 provides deep bass that complements any cinematic experience without sacrificing clarity in the mid and high ranges.

In terms of technology, the FS-4000 employs advanced driver materials that are not only durable but also engineered to minimize distortion. The woofer cones are designed to provide excellent transient response, allowing for quick and accurate reproduction of low-frequency sounds. The tweeter excels in delivering crisp highs, making dialogue sharp and music dynamic. The speaker's cabinet is crafted with resonance-dampening materials to minimize unintended vibrations, ensuring that sound quality remains pristine.

On the other hand, the FS-5000 builds upon these principles with enhancements suited for larger spaces. This model features a more robust three-way design, combining dual 6.5-inch woofers, a larger 5-inch midrange driver, and a similar 1-inch silk dome tweeter. The increased size of the drivers allows the FS-5000 to handle even lower frequencies, achieving a frequency response that dives down to an impressive 30 Hz. It provides a more powerful and impactful soundstage, making it ideal for larger room configurations.

Both models utilize Atlantic Technology's innovative baffle and port design, which helps in producing clearer sound with less interference. Moreover, the FS-5000 includes a bi-wire/bi-amp option, enabling audiophiles to connect their systems with increased versatility and enhanced signal integrity.

In summary, the Atlantic Technology FS-4000 and FS-5000 speakers are meticulously engineered for audio performance. With their high-quality drivers, advanced technologies, and well-crafted cabinets, both models deliver an impressive audio experience suitable for any home theater setup or music listening environment. Whether you are watching movies or enjoying music, these speakers aim to elevate the overall auditory experience with depth, clarity, and precision.
