The most common criticism levelled at
hi-fi companies today is that systems
are designed either for home cinema
use, or to reproduce stereo music
accurately. It is seemingly difficult
to fi nd a system that combines
the best of both worlds without
compromise to each other. Opus2,
however, has been engineered as
a complete range with dedicated
models available for use as centre
channels and surround speakers.
Within f ilm soundtracks, around
70% of the audio is usually directed
through the centre speaker. It is
essential therefore, that this speaker
is not only of the very highest quality,
but t hat it integrates seamlessly
with the front left and front right
speakers, presenting a cohesive front
soundstage.
The Opus2 centre channel speaker
utilises the same dome mid-range
and tweeter arrangement as in all the
floorstand and st and-mount models.
Aligned vertically, t heir dispersion
is uniform on the horizontal plane
with none of the ‘lobing’ that lesser
centre channels can be prone to.
Tonally matched and perfectly
balanced to present vocals in a
breath-takingly natural fashion, the
Opus2 centre is the result of many
years work in the field of home
cinema.
The t ri-surroun d spe akers within
the Opus2 range take the principle
of tonal matching fur ther still,
perfectly integrated with the rest
of the series, yet with a full 180
degree dispersion aimed at fully
immersing the listener within a
complete soundfield.
The Opus2 series also includes
the new ‘AVC’ models. The se
are specifically engineered to
be w all m ounted for the lea st
intrusive installation, yet with the
same outstanding neutrality and
cleanliness as the larger models.
