Atlantic Technology is now shipping the highest caliber tower speakers they’ve ever created in their 30-year legacy of producing some of the industry’s finest sounding speakers, expanding their extensive range of speakers to higher-end segments such as uncompromising two-channel or large-room surround systems.
“With the design of the 8600e LR, we decided to set new standards and create a next-level of speaker system for Atlantic Technology,” said Mike Miller, National Sales Manager Atlantic Technology. “By implementing new driver technology in an all-new configuration, we have developed an ultra-high performance speaker system that offers an unbeatable combination of smooth, accurate sound, sophisticated style, and unmatched value. Whether critically listening to two-channel music or enjoying surround-sound movies, the 8600e LR delivers the explosive dynamics of the latest Hollywood blockbuster as well as the subtle details of a classic recording.”
This all-new speaker design employed in the 8600e LR features internally braced non-resonant MDF cabinets housing seven new state-of-the art Atlantic Technology drivers configured in a D’Appolito/M-T-M array; four 8-inch fiberglass woofers, two 5.25-inch fiberglass mid-drivers, and an advanced 1-inch aluminum/magnesium dome tweeter with a powerful neodymium magnet structure. The midrange and tweeter drivers are internally isolated within their own airtight sub-enclosure. The cross-over is a 4th order Butterworth asymmetrical time-aligned Linkwitz-Riley design with bi-wire inputs.
The 8600e LR can be tuned to any room with the rear mounted acoustic optimization controls to minimize detrimental effects of speaker placement and room acoustics.
Completing its premium pedigree, the 8600e LR is available in two fine-furniture high-grade finishes. The cabinet’s side panels are in either a luxurious Gloss Black painted finish or high-gloss lacquered Makassar Ebony veneer finish. To complete the look, a beveled smoked glass top is also included.
The 8600e LR speakers carry a suggested retail price of $2,599 each.
