Node Audio, styled NODE, is a Cambridge, England speaker brand founded in 2018 by industrial designers David Evans and Ashley May. Its first product, the Hylixa, launched in 2019, and the company is known for cabinets shaped with additive manufacturing and a patented helical bass-loading system.
Range & what it's known for
The Hylixa was developed with acoustic engineer Christien Ellis, and its name refers to the helical transmission line at its core. The later ATOM range applies the same idea in two three-way models. The ATOM 525 stand-mount uses a 5.25-inch long-throw woofer and the ATOM 650 floorstander a 6.5-inch woofer, both with dual 2-inch spiderless magnesium alloy midrange drivers and a 0.85-inch neodymium soft dome tweeter. The Helical Transmission Line channels the woofer's rear output into a central chamber, and a lattice called MonoCell replaces fibrous damping while also bracing the enclosure.
Who owns it and where it's made
Evans and May are also partners in Studio17 Design, an industrial design firm in Cambridge. NODE speakers are manufactured in Cambridge, with cabinets wrapped in acoustic fabric or leather and fitted with machined billet aluminium parts.
The lineup in this catalog
Two ATOM models, the ATOM 525 stand-mount from GBP 15,800 and the ATOM 650 floorstander from GBP 20,950.
Who it's for
A NODE speaker is a choice for a design-led room that calls for a British speaker with unusual construction. The ATOM 525 fits smaller rooms on its bespoke stands, and the ATOM 650 is the floorstanding step up with a larger woofer and deeper bass reach.
