Premier 500C

Performance & Value
To deliver a loudspeaker that excels in both performance and value, we took full control of the manufacturing process—a rarity at this price point. Using advanced facilities in North America, we created a speaker that redefines expectations, incorporating innovative technologies for exceptional sound quality.

Patented Perforated Phase-Aligning (PPA™) Tweeter and Midrange Lens Technology
The unique perforated lens in front of the tweeter and midrange drivers enhances and smooths the sound output while avoiding any tonal coloration. This design also protects the drivers from potential damage.

Patented Active Ridge Technology (ART™) Surrounds
The design features patented Active Ridge Technology (ART) surrounds, crafted in-house and directly overmolded onto each woofer and midrange cone. This approach allows for greater cone movement, resulting in a 3dB increase in output and a 50% reduction in distortion. Made from injection-molded thermoplastic elastomer, these surrounds are highly durable and reliable, ensuring consistent, high-quality performance for years to come.

Crafted in Canada
These speakers are designed, engineered, and manufactured in a cutting-edge 225,000 ft² facility in Canada. They use heavy-duty, non-resonant 3/4-inch MDF with strategically placed internal bracing and reinforced front baffles for unmatched audio performance in this price range. Smooth front baffles, constructed from 1-inch MDF, minimize diffraction and optimize sound dispersion. Handcrafted quality is evident throughout, complemented by elegant, furniture-grade finishes that set a new benchmark for performance and craftsmanship.

Research-Driven Design
This speaker series is backed by extensive research on sound and human hearing, conducted in collaboration with a world-class research center. The insights from this research have guided its design and performance specifications, resulting in a truly realistic and scientifically validated listening experience.
