PMC Launches Their Radical Audiophile Sub Bass Unit: The TLE1

December 21. 2001

The 2002 International CES will see the U.S. launch of the new radical TLE1 active sub bass unit from PMC. This audiophile design is the result of much experience gained in the professional realm of Hollywood and research into the acoustics and ergonomics of the home. Size and the aesthetics have played a major part in the creation of this radical new unit, which can be clearly seen in its tall slender form and tiny footprint. Ideal for all domestic situations especially where space is at a premium and the user has a keen eye for design. The two 6-1/2-inch shielded custom drivers are driven by a true 150-watt, ultra low distortion audiophile power amplifier, based on one of Bryston's world class designs. Don't let the small footprint and compact driver units fool you. Within the elegant compact cabinet lies a true transmission line with an effective length of 9-1/2 feet, which gives the TLE1 the ability to produce a flat frequency response down to 22 Hz with real audiophile clarity and detail. This purist approach to low frequency reproduction finally gives a realistic option to those who wish to play high-quality multichannel music recordings as well as earth-shaking Hollywood blockbusters.The benefits of the PMC transmission line loading system over a standard ported or sealed enclosure are: - Dynamic, accurate and articulate response at all listening levels- Ease of placement, producing a consistent in-room response- Extremely low distortion- Transmission Line enclosure produces astounding power and depth- Seamless integration with surround or stereo channelsSpecifications:- Stereo balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA inputs- Volume/Level with calibrated setting for THXÆ specification- Variable phase, 0-360 degrees- Variable roll-off, 38-155 Hz, 12 dB/octave- Variable roll-off defeat -- bypass- 12V trigger input- Dimensions (WHD inches): 7-3/4 x 21-1/2 x 19-3/4- Weight: 42 pounds For more information, visit www.pmcloudspeaker.com.
