February 12, 2024 – SUBWOOFER integration has always been difficult to achieve given the complexity of the many different types of Main speakers utilized in a typical audio system.
Bryston is introducing a series of Subwoofer Towers specifically designed to integrate with our new T-10 Series Tower Speakers. These stereo Sub Towers can be used with either our ‘Passive or Active’ T-10 Tower speakers.
There will be three physically, cosmetically and software matched versions of these TS-10 Sub Towers:
- Model TS-10 Sub Tower (Six – 8 inch drivers each)
- Middle TS-10 Sub Tower (Six – 5 inch drivers each)
- Trim TS-10 Sub Tower (Four – 5 inch drivers each)
The TS-10 stereo subwoofer towers will require the new Bryston BAX2 (2-way electronic crossover) and two more chan- nels of amplification with dedicated software which will blend the TS-10 Tower to the Mains utilizing DSP over the bass frequency range between 150Hz and down to their specific cutoff point.
So, at the very low frequencies you will have the stereo Subwoofer Tower bass and the bass drivers in the stereo Mains acting as one massive integrat- ed bass driver.
This is the optimum way to achieve the proper integration of your Main speakers with your Subs. It will also drive the room in the bass area from multiple points in space which helps reduce the standing waves in your lis- tening room as well as incredibly low distortion throughout the very low bass frequencies due to multiple low frequency drivers sharing the load.
