acoustic centre of attention

Like all Pitt & Giblin products a waveguide controls the dispersion of high frequency energy for a consistent frequency response that results in superior tonal balance in room.

With Tenet this methodology is extended into the high-midrange region, from the same device.

The single source covers off on another full octave of music signal, and lowers the crossover below a highly sensitive region, where wavelengths are much longer. This affords us the opportunity to properly integrate a dual mid-bass arrangement, to achieve directivity control unlike any other vertically symmetric product on the market.

To achieve this, the waveguide needs to be big.

How big? As big as Superwax, or thereabouts.

At 840mm wide (33”), it features a cast G1 bronze throat piece, that is CNC machined. The radial tool path promotes the visual and acoustic centre of TENET, which expands into a composite mouth piece, constructed of laminated birch plywood that is CNC machined, and sealed with a layer of epoxy fibreglass. Finished to meet the bronze geometry at the transition exactly.

This assembly is our crown jewel. A result of years in research, development, experimentation, prototyping, testing, refinement, and design.

EXTENDED BANDWIDTH HIGH FREQUENCY WAVEGUIDE

A highly optimised extended bandwidth high frequency module plays into a monstrous cast bronze expansion, which transitions to a solid laminated mouth piece. The purely point source signal also covers off on frequencies typically reserved for dedicated midrange devices.
SEALED MIDBASS UNITS

The consistent axial response and incredible dynamics hand over to dual 15” flanking mid bass drivers which are isolated in large sealed cabinets, and tightly control these troublesome frequencies beyond the abilities of traditional loudspeakers. This top section has in excess of 1200w RMS per side, which of course, is driven by PASCAL amplifiers and high-end DSP housed in the sub bass module.
SUB BASS MODULE

Each pillar sits atop an extremely large sub bass system which displace well over a cubic metre each. Dual 21” opposed drivers fire into a cavity, whereby their mechanical forces cancel, resulting in purely acoustic energy that vents both fore and aft - with rearward reflex ports tuned well inside the ordinary ‘infra’ bass region. This segment has 2200w RMS on tap, for bass that is controlled, punchy, deep, thrilling. And there’s plenty of it, and the rest.
