The recent development of the stunning D7 has allowed significant advances in the design specification of the new A5R. From refinements to Spendor’s asymmetric bracing and dynamic damping systems, right through to the new materials and techniques used by Spendor engineers to create their unique drive units. By isolating the front radiating surfaces completely from the rear surfaces, we have removed the bass smearing often associated with smaller floorstanding loudspeakers.
The 15cm Low Bass Driver utilises an ultra light composite Kevlar piston to give the A5R pin sharp timing. The 15cm Bass/Midrange Driver features the advanced polymer developed to give the seamless midrange of the D7.
The cabinet design along with the Spendor groundlock spike mounting system make the new A5R the ultimate room friendly loudspeaker.
