With its wide flat response and ideal dispersion characteristics, it will place the sound right in front of you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHear Everything in Full Detail\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe C10 uses a 0.75\" black anodized aluminum dome tweeter to extend the high-frequency response further than any Alpha ever before while lowering distortion to deliver a layered soundstage full of detail and clarity. Unlike lesser designs at this price, all the new Alpha Series tweeters employ ferrofluid cooling to prevent dynamic compression and a neodymium magnet for high sensitivity. The tweeter's front waveguide and its unique placement below the woofer work together to smooth the response at the crossover and perfect on and off-axis performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eBring the Theater Home\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eWhen paired with the Alpha Series' newly designed tweeter, the C10's custom 5.25\" woofer provides remarkable low-frequency response and the highest speaker efficiency in its class. The woofer is constructed from a special textured polypropylene compound that minimizes cone breakup and lowers distortion at full excursion. It's also supported with dual layer voice coils and a bass reflex design that uses the rear-firing port tube to control the bass response down to room-shaking levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMatched to Perfection\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe Alpha Series' new crossover exceeds speaker standards with a special custom design that does more than direct low and high frequencies to the individual drivers--it delivers the tightest control and the flattest frequency response. An unusually complex acoustic Butterworth low-pass filter has also been incorporated into the crossover design to lower distortion and create a seamless soundscape in any type of two-channel setup or surround sound system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSeamless Home Theater Integration\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eA unique combination of wall thickness and bracing controls resonances and provides a perfect platform for the P5's driver components, while its internal damping material is from PSB's flagship lines and has been positioned precisely for optimal effectiveness. Finished with a high-quality wood grain vinyl and magnetically attached grilles that are acoustically transparent, the P5 is perfectly designed to seamlessly disappear into any décor and provide rich, detailed sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eBehind the Alpha Series\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eFirst designed and manufactured in a small Canadian town in 1991, the Alpha Series started with the simple idea of creating affordable speakers that were focused purely on performance. With passion and dedication in pursuit of a natural sounding speaker, and by leveraging decades of research conducted at the Canadian National Research Council by PSB's founder, Paul Barton, the Alphas quickly rose to be one of the world's most iconic speakers and are still the reference benchmark for entry-level hi-fi speakers today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe newly designed Alphas look to continue their legacy by staying true to the original concept from the '70s and combining it with today's latest cutting-edge technologies. Powerful and smooth, the all-new Alpha Series has been rebuilt with enhanced custom drivers and a new crossover design that works perfectly together to deliver natural, detailed sound with precision and less distortion. In a home theatre or stereo setup, the new Alphas outperform the originals in every measurement and will bring your music and movies to life.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PSB","offers":[{"title":"Black \/ New","offer_id":45980517040301,"sku":"NEW-PBAC10-BLK","price":499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0750\/3708\/1773\/files\/PBAC10_3_WAL-Large__57949.1729010027.1280.1280.jpg?v=1778101950"},{"product_id":"psb-alpha-sub-10-powered-subwoofer-black","title":"PSB Alpha Sub 10 Powered Subwoofer - Black","description":"\u003ch3\u003eBig Time Bass That Won’t Break the Bank\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eContinuing the PSB philosophy of high performance and high value, the new Alpha S10 active subwoofer brings the company’s expertise to the all-important bass region. Though the S10 is compact and affordable, it gets down to business for music and home theater systems when deep bass is a must. The Alpha S10 meets the challenge featuring a long throw 10” woofer with polypropylene cone in a specially tuned bass reflex enclosure. Add DSP control and a state-of-the-art digital amplifier and the magic begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAffordable Excellence With Audiophile Pedigree\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003ePSB has been making critically-acclaimed speakers for more than 45 years and are especially famous for speakers that deliver high bang for the buck.

In general, most subwoofers in this category are expected to merely produce noticeable sound pressure levels in the portion of the listening register most frequented by home theater special effects. Detail, finesse, and musicality are sacrificed for the sake of dinosaurs stomping their feet or explosions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eAlpha subwoofers are held to much more stringent goals. They are capable of performing the most demanding musical passages with an incredible degree of refinement. This level of performance comes from a keen understanding of the true purpose of a subwoofer. A subwoofer exists to supplement the other speakers in the audio system seamlessly and without audibly drawing attention to itself. Without good integration of speaker and subwoofer, a uniform and transparent performance cannot be achieved. Through painstaking attention to the design of the crossover filters and tuning, the Alpha S10 delivers a virtually imperceptive transition between subwoofer and speaker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eEliminating the Port Noise Complaint\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eAnother key design goal was to eliminate one of the biggest culprits of any subwoofer. Port noise not only muddies the overall sonic performance but gives away the position of the subwoofer in the listening space. The S8 and S10 incorporate a rear slot port design specifically created to eliminate any audible port noise or chuffing. In brief, these new subwoofers play their part with accuracy and efficiency while remaining invisible to the ear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe Alpha S8 is 14” high, 14-1\/8” wide, and 17-1\/2” deep.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PSB","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":45980519039149,"sku":"NEW-PBASUB10","price":849.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0750\/3708\/1773\/files\/PBASUB10_02-Large__27196.1730772060.1280.1280.jpg?v=1778117521"},{"product_id":"psb-am3-compact-powered-speakers-black-pair","title":"PSB AM3 Compact Powered Speakers - Black - Pair","description":"\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.25em;margin:0 0 0.35em 0;\"\u003eWhat You Need to Know\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:1.1em;margin:1.2em 0 0.3em 0;\"\u003eA Complete Hi-Fi System That Fits on a Desk\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eThe PSB Alpha AM3 packs a genuine stereo system into two compact cabinets under nine inches tall.
