PMC TWENTY5.26i Floorstanding Speakers
The PMC TWENTY5.26i Floorstanding Speakers stand as the flagship model in the range, setting new standards for audio excellence. These speakers feature a third driver dedicated to the critical mid frequencies, known for their significance in vocal recordings. PMC, renowned worldwide for its soft-dome mid-range drivers, takes the auditory experience to the next level with the TWENTY5.26i.
Three-Way Design for Unparalleled Clarity
The three-way design of the TWENTY5.26i ensures that each essential frequency range has its dedicated driver. This meticulous arrangement allows these speakers to fill even the largest spaces with absolute transparency and clarity. Whether you're listening to vocal recordings or immersive soundscapes, the TWENTY5.26i delivers an audio experience like no other.
Craftsmanship Meets Technology
Crafting the perfect cabinet for these speakers requires a blend of cutting-edge technology and traditional craftsmanship. Structural integrity and precision are paramount. The cabinet and ATL (Advanced Transmission Line) housing are precision machined from highly specified HDF material, some as thick as 40mm. For consumer veneered models, both interior and exterior veneer treatments ensure stability and longevity.
Accuracy in joints and the use of modern bonding agents create a flawless, homogeneous structure, serving as an ideal, inert platform for the drive units. Premium veneers sourced from sustainable forests are hand-selected and matched for a perfect mirror image appearance. A delicate lacquer finish adds a faultless, deep, and lustrous sheen, complementing modern or classical decor.
ATL Bass-Loading Technology: The Heart of Natural Sound
PMC's Advanced Transmission Line (ATL) bass-loading technology is the source of its legendary natural and realistic sound, known and respected worldwide. ATL optimizes the energy generated by the bass unit more efficiently than traditional ported or sealed box designs. In ATL loudspeakers, the highly braced cabinet is lined with custom-designed acoustic materials that absorb frequencies above the very lowest. These frequencies exit from a front-panel vent, extending low-frequency response and creating the illusion of a larger speaker with exceptional bass quality.
The advantages of ATL extend beyond bass enhancement. The clean and clear low end doesn't mask other parts of the music, resulting in beautifully projected and ultra-vivid vocals. Furthermore, ATL bass extension remains consistent regardless of volume level, ensuring balanced and well-defined bass even at lower volumes.
Laminair™ Technology: Setting New Standards
PMC's Laminair™ aerodynamic vent takes audio performance to new heights by applying aerodynamic principles used in high-performance engineering, from F1 to Le Mans. It creates a smoother, laminar airflow at the transmission line's exit, reducing turbulence, drag, and air noise while enhancing efficiency and bass timing.
The combination of ATL and Laminair ensures:
- Faster, cleaner bass
- Higher-definition sound
- Elimination of air noise
- Higher maximum output and bass with supreme timing and dynamics
Precision-Designed Drivers and Crossovers
Unlike some manufacturers who start with off-the-shelf drivers, PMC tailors its drivers to its parent cabinets. This approach yields high-resolution, ultra-low-distortion performance, delivering natural, pure, and uncoloured sound.
When designing crossovers, the value of capacitors is carefully calculated, and the best-sounding examples are selected from various manufacturers. Capacitors undergo rigorous testing to ensure they match specifications. Pairs of capacitors with identical characteristics are used in each pair of loudspeakers, guaranteeing indistinguishable performance.
A Holistic Approach to Audio Excellence
Every component of PMC's TWENTY5.26i speakers undergoes rigorous testing procedures, ensuring each loudspeaker is a precise replica of the reference. This holistic approach, where all design elements are treated with the same significance, results in supreme power handling and ultra-low distortion. It contributes to exceptional clarity and a wide, three-dimensional soundstage, enriching the audio experience across a wide listening area.
