BIC America Acoustech PL-980 3-Way Tower Speaker (Pair)
For decades, BIC has received numerous top ratings and become recognised for offering audiophile sound for far less than an audiophile price. The new state-of-the-art PL-980 floor speakers not only follow this tradition but take today’s horn-loaded speakers to a new level!
Unlike most horn floor speakers on the market today, the PL-980s feature a 3-way, multi-driver design rather than a 2-way design. Although many 2-way floor speakers offer outstanding performance, the PL-980’s 3-way design enhances and refines mid frequencies, which enable an extended soundstage, dynamic range, and frequency response. Their imaging and lifelike sound are as if looking from the front to the back of the performance stage, very much like what is experienced both audibly and visually at a live performance. The end result is the PL-980s reflect the warmth and 3-dimensional sound you would expect from high-end audio, but for a fraction of the price!
Perfect for both music and home theatre applications, each PL-980 incorporates two high-power 8” active woofers that deliver low-frequency output. Two 8” passive radiators eliminate port noise while extending the bass even further. The midrange is a 5″ closed-back driver that delivers the all-important 1000Hz–5000Hz articulation range. The closed-back design prevents interference from the 8” woofers, ensuring a clean, detailed midrange response. The 6.5” mid/high-frequency horn tweeter delivers rich, detailed clarity and effortlessly achieves staggering output to 119 dB (live rock band levels). Each woofer and midrange is fitted with elegant gloss black trim rings for sleek cosmetics. The enclosures include hand-rubbed black lacquer tops and bottoms. This extra step ensures a deep gloss shine that is more scratch-resistant than most lacquer finishes on the market. PL-980s also have an extended 8-year warranty, offering one of the longest in the industry!
Designed and engineered to please even the most discriminating listeners, the PL-980s surpass the performance and enjoyment of floor speakers more than three times their price!
