The reference one limited edition r1txltd is a flagship floorstanding loudspeaker from TAD, built with notably high sensitivity and an exceptionally wide bandwidth. The reference one limited edition r1txltd represents TAD's most ambitious current statement in floorstanding loudspeaker engineering.
Key specs that matter
Rated response spans an exceptionally deep 21Hz to 100,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB - a remarkable bandwidth reflecting TAD's characteristic coaxial driver technology applied at flagship scale. Sensitivity is a notably high 90dB into a demanding 4 ohm load, with recommended amplifier power specified at 300W. At 55.4 x 130.8 x 69.8cm and an extraordinary 162kg, the reference one limited edition r1txltd represents one of the most considerable floorstanding commitments available anywhere.
Sound and use context
Expect extraordinary dynamic scale and detail retrieval reflecting the exceptional 21Hz-100kHz bandwidth combined with the notably high 90dB sensitivity and extraordinary 162kg mass - this represents TAD's absolute flagship engineering ambition.
Pairing
The demanding 4 ohm impedance combined with the specified 300W power calls for serious amplification with real current delivery, and buyers should confirm structural floor assessment given the extraordinary 162kg mass.
Alternatives
TAD's own COMPACT REFERENCE ONE CR1TX offers a bookshelf-classified alternative within the same broader uncompromising engineering philosophy.
