Introduction
The Model AT-1 is a 2-way system of extraordinarily high performance
intended for use in a top-quality music or home theater system. Its patent-
pending H-PAS™ bass technology enables the AT-1 to deliver powerful low
bass performance (-3 dB @ 29 Hz) not previously achievable with compa-
rably-sized drivers in similar-sized enclosures.
Each speaker contains two GLH (Graphite Loaded Homopolymer) 5 ¼"
(135mm) woofers and an advanced 1
1
8" (28mm) ferrofluid-cooled, Low
Resonance silk dome tweeter with an integral back chamber/heatsink. The
drivers are configured in an M-T-M array (midrange-tweeter-midrange
alignment). This vertical arrangement of drivers provides wide left-to-right
coverage of sound while limiting the floor and ceiling reflections that can
color the sound. These components are mounted in an acoustically inert
MDF enclosure, with special proprietary internal bracing, called CDFF™
(Cross Design Free Flow). This bracing makes the enclosure extremely
rigid, while perfectly maintaining the internal airflow that is critical to its
performance.
IMPORTANT:
Although it may seem like asking for driving directions,
please take a few moments to read all of this booklet. It has many
helpful tips and ideas on properly setting up and using your system.
We promise that if you take the time to read and follow these tips
you’ll get better system performance and more enjoyment.
