PSB Speakers Loudspeakers manual Technical Highlights

PSB Imagine C Center Channel and Imagine S Surround Speaker. Below, Imagine B Bookshelf rear view.

Technical Highlights

•Innovative 7-layer laminated construction yields impressively solid, acoustically inert Imagine enclosures. The result: dramatically clean, “fast” bass and uncolored midrange—and visually elegant curved forms.

•Proprietary titanium-dome tweeter’s light yet stiff diaphragm and “over-hung” voice-coil, with a computer- optimized magnetic circuit for singularly smooth, extended response that remains distortion-free even at very high acoustic levels.

•Unique woofer design combines serious low-frequency power with exceptional midrange accuracy. Proprietary ceramic-filled polypropylene cones, a uniquely aerodynamic molded basket, and a specialized, distortion-reducing magnetic design are just three of their secrets.

•Smoothly radiused, unblemished front surfaces are more than merely beautiful: they virtually eliminate mid-and high-frequency diffractions, maximizing transient realism and treble “air.”

•Heavy gold-plated quad terminals ensure full signal transfer and can be bi-wired and bi-amped.

(Except Imagine S, whose separately addressable inputs permit discrete-channel rear/side surround connections to each speaker.)
