T+A Pulsar S 130 – new slim acoustic systems in the model range of the famous German company. The model is designed according to the brand design with “symmetrical directivity”, which helps to minimize reflections in the listening room. The forward-facing bass reflex port also facilitates installation.
T+A Pulsar S 130 uses a special scheme - the front panel of the speaker body combines four speakers and a tweeter without any fasteners or screw connections. According to the developers, this way it is possible to achieve a flat frequency response. The frequency range of T+A Pulsar S 130 acoustic systems extends from 32 to 45 kHz. With a nominal impedance of 4 Ohms, the sensitivity is 86 dB, and the nominal power is 150 W with a peak of up to 180 W - so a powerful and stable amplifier will be needed in pair with the speakers.
The crossover frequencies of the T + A Pulsar S 130 are 225 Hz and 2.2 kHz. The dimensions of the speaker cabinets are 100 x 27 x 37 centimeters, and the weight of one speaker is 22.5 kilograms. The T + A Pulsar S 130 acoustic systems are offered in black and white piano lacquer finishes and are already on sale. In the USA, the recommended retail price of the new product is $ 7,500 per pair of speakers.
