To celebrate its 25th Anniversary, loudspeaker manufacturer Augspurger Monitors is using NAMM 2023 to unveil its Duo15-Sub1801-TAD – an all-new high-performance, four-way large active loudspeaker featuring TAD Laboratories drivers with DSPtune controlled amplification.
The 25th Anniversary Limited Edition Duo15-Sub1801-TAD system shares many features of the Augspurger Monitors’ flagship Duo series monitors, and includes the newly designed Duo15 cabinet fitted and voiced to the TAD TL1601b 15” Driver and new Sub1801, which has been specifically designed and optimised for the TAD DL1801 18” Subwoofer.
This four-way system uses the TAD TD-4001 compression driver with 4” Beryllium diaphragm, employing TAD’s proprietary vapour transfer process which offers a natural performance, and also the recently reissued ET-703a Super Tweeter – TAD’s revered high frequency driver, with performance up to 45khz.
“After 25 years and over 1000 installations globally, we’re thrilled to integrate TAD’s incredible sounding components into our highly-refined systems,” said Dave Malekpour, president at Augspurger Monitors.
“We build to very high standards - from hand selecting the solid maple used in the horns, utilising the finest components, amplification and driver technology, to our bespoke finishes - we focus on the quality and user pride and experience. This new ‘powered by TAD’ 25th anniversary edition performs accurately from 20hz to 45K, which far exceeds our standard system performance. It really is incredible.”
Each system is individually tuned, either remotely or onsite by Augspurger Monitors’ own certified tuning engineers.
The Duo15-Sub1801-TAD will be shipping from April 13 2023, available worldwide and in a choice of custom colourways for $64,000 / £55,000 GBP / 60,000 EU per pair.
The system will be unveiled on Booth #15308 in the North Hall at The NAMM Show 2023, on Thursday April 13, at 12pm local time.
