Most of the times we get to see mundane-looking speakers that at least perform well and sometimes cost o fortune. What would you say about a price/performance speaker that really packs an innovative design? Anthony Gallo Acoustics presents the all-new Nucleus Reference 3.1 loudspeaker design. Reference 3.1.
This is the improved version of the award winning Reference 3 loudspeaker. The most notable improvements seem to be the new mid-range drivers, which incorporate a neodymium magnet and an ingenious design for improved efficiency, mid-range detail and transient response. Also, the all-new metalized polypropylene capacitors offer greater dynamics and lower power consumption, while the tweeter switch has been eliminated to ensure even greater signal coherency and high-frequency purity. The redesigned CDT II tweeter also introduces the hollow-cast, aluminum chassis filled with Gallo’s patented S2 technology air-density treatment.
On the actual power side we find the Reference 3 S.A. (subwoofer amplifier) which is a 2 x 240 watt stereo amplifier that incorporates an active crossover/bass EQ option to extend the Nucleus Reference 3.1's bass response to a room-shaking 22Hz. This is achieved by driving the woofers' second voice coil directly.
In case you were wondering if this design could cost more than $10k, don’t bother doing that. You only need to pay $2,995.00 a pair.
