The Trapezoid is not only an attractive piece of fine furniture  but is also an extremely natural-sounding, efficient, direct radiating High-End Home Theater-Audio/Video speaker system. It is also one of the few speaker systems that is capable of reproducing the entire audio spectrum 20-20,000Hz (human hearing range) at soft through loud sound pressure levels. Reproducing the extreme low frequencies (below 35Hz) and extreme high frequencies (above 15,000Hz) is complex and expensive. The extreme ranges have a vast amount of beautiful and exciting sound and musical material. Most of  today's speaker systems have a narrow or limited frequency response (bandwidth) and many also break up, mis-track, bottom out, etc. at concert hall sound pressure levels. Thus, they fall quite short of the above audio range, electro/acoustical parameters, and etc. necessary to recover this information. Reproducing real life performances of sound and music via digital source material is easily achieved by the Trapezoid.  However, for most speaker systems  this  task is going  to be incomplete and much of  the recorded content is inaccessible. The Trapezoid's performance should be fulfilling even for the demanding individual who is a serious listener. In making your choice, why not insist on anything less than the dynamic full audio spectrum sound reproduction like the Trapezoid's performance ability. And of course, a sub-woofer is not necessary thereby saving space, additional amplification, and money.

FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES:

·   Tapered Acoustical Trapezoidal Line (TATL, design) low frequency system type, KINETIC AUDIO’s famous, exclusive and unique effective means of air/mass transfer which allows more dense fresh air into and out of the enclosure, blending room and enclosure air flow and pressure, effecting the most adequate method of loading and controlling transducer's diaphragm; results: truest, fastest transient response and ultimate controlled damping which provides ultra-low, open bass, effortlessly into the subsonic range while preventing annoying resonances and infrasonic turbulence; high absorption characteristics eliminate unwanted internal reflections and resonances, and rear wave re-entry does not occur through transducers’ diaphragm or vent to color the pure frontal sound radiations of the woofer.  Slanted, perforated and/or slotted partitions and/or sub-chambers.  Perforations are of different shapes and sizes so as to eliminate resonances and standing waves for widest life-size dynamic range and near-perfect elimination of recreated and/or stored energy.  Several different types of damping materials are also incorporated for above benefits

·   Staggered Diagonal Transducer Arrangement (SDTA, design):       No transducers are in the same vertical or horizontal plane so as to eliminate undesirable transducer interaction which can cause peaks, dips and cancellations.  Mid-range is offset a vertical center, moved and mounted away from the woofer with the tweeter in between which results in minimum transducer interference, improved phase integrity and prevents large wave fronts produced by woofer and mid-woofer from interfering with each of their signal paths, and also assures excellent "linear phase" response

·   VAR-I-VENT  front located; adjusts for critical adjustment of air/mass loading in various room sizes and/or locations for ultimate detail and extension of low frequency response into the subsonic range

·   Absorbent chambers of mid-tweeter and tweeter are critically damped well below crossover points and are basically non-resonant and adequately absorb undesirable rear-wave information

·   Select-grade components used throughout.  Our exclusive separated direct-wired crossovers, including precision copper wire air core coils, metallized polypropylene, polycarbonate and polyester-film capacitors, precluding tonal coloration of conventional materials and maximum longevities

·   Level controls are front located for easy access and convenience for “fine tuning”; adjusts for a “linear or flat” frequency response; or to listeners’ tastes or preferences and to the room’s acoustical environment

·   Convenient plugins’ sets of heavy duty gold plated 5-way banana binding posts (black/red); accept up to eight gauge wires; can be used for single or bi-amping or bi-wiring; a single amplifier, even one of low power, will provide spectacular results

·   Removable black single-knit grille for inspection, adjusting of system and critical listening

· Clear or black oak veneer over finest grade acoustical MDF 

·   Mirror-matched components for symmetrical imaging
