Speakers Proac RESPONSE ONE 'SC

A radical refinement of the internationally acclaimed Response One 'S', the new Response One 'SC' takes miniature loudspeaker performance into a new dimension.

This latest model incorporates a sensational new bass/midrange unit, manufactured exclusively for ProAc. This driver features an innovative copper magnet and phase plug assembly which has produced startling sonic improvements, particularly in the midrange. Equally important is the introduction of a highly damped, completely transparent cone which marries extreme rigidity to exceptional lightness. The effect of this unique combination is a dramatic lowering of distortion together with a flattening and extension of the frequency response.

Housed in a highly damped cabinet, this dynamic bass/midrange driver, working in tandem with an equalised reflex port, produces exceptional bass extension with greatly enhanced soundstaging and detail. A modified high quality crossover network integrates the bass/midrange output smoothly with that of the dome tweeter, providing seamless reproduction throughout the entire frequency range.

But perhaps the most important advance has been in the midrange area. The incorporation of this new bass/midrange drive unit has resulted in a smooth and expansive midrange, completely free of any colouration. Indeed, independent listeners have commented that this is midrange performance of electrostatic quality.

No expense has been spared in the design and construction of the Response One 'SC'. The result is an outstandingly fast, powerful and accurate delivery combined with midrange quality seldom experienced from a box loudspeaker. Finished in a range of exquisite real wood veneers, the Response One 'SC' represents a milestone in compact loudspeaker performance at the highest level.

The full potential of these thoroughbred designs will only be realised through the use of the highest quality partnering equipment.
