Description
The V high performance speaker system from Legacy Audio is a
groundbreaking achievement that unites perfect timing with incredible design. V
features the state of the art Legacy Wavelet Processor.
SOLD AS A FLOORSTANDING
SPEAKER PAIR WITH WAVELET DAC/PREAMP/CROSSOVER/ROOM CORRECTION
This 4 way system is the first to use the Legacy
Wavelet Processor (an advanced speaker & room resonance correction
system with a high-end DAC/Preamplifier) and features open air dipole midrange,
dual subwoofers with internal amplification, two Legacy 4” long AMT tweeters in
a specially optimized post convergent array and craftsmanship display options.
The Legacy V is the first system to use the new dual 4” long
Legacy AMT neodymium tweeters, arranged in a specially optimized post
convergent array that masterfully presents treble which extends up to 30kHz.
Building upon the advances first developed for the award winning AERIS speaker
system, V features open air dual 14” carbon/pulp drivers delivering detailed
and spacious midrange and bass.
Legacy Chief Designer Bill Dudleston utilized a 12” aluminum
bass driver with a massive magnetic structure complemented by another 12”
aluminum very low frequency radiator which drives three 10” mass loaded
pneumatic radiators. The result? Unprecedented excursion at the longest
wavelengths with superior dynamic response. The V speaker system even shapes
low frequencies into a cardioid pattern to avoid room coloration. The low
frequencies are amplified by the included 1,500 Watts of the latest generation
of ICEpower® amplification.
The system is the first to include the Legacy Wavelet
Processor. Wavelet is a preamp, a four-way crossover with time alignment,
complete speaker and room resonance correction, and a high-end DAC with
apodizing ability. The Preamp and DAC can also be bypassed at the touch of a
button. Wavelet debuts the revolutionary Bohmer acoustic processing to optimize
the loudspeaker/room acoustic transfer function in both the frequency and time
domains. Working with new algorithms it starts with a psychoacoustically based
measurement method with the provided calibrated microphone. Alignments are then
individually optimized within an unprecedented 40ms window by way of a wireless
iPad, smart phone or computer. The result is audibly improved transient
response that allows the V system to operate accurately and consistently in any
listening environment.
The V system’s ultra high end performance capabilities are
only matched by its design. The intricately crafted cabinet features optional
high gloss, real wood veneer and aluminum extrusions. The elegant design is
highlighted by a gentle illumination (with on/off switch) from within the
center of each tower- complimenting the groundbreaking performance technology
within the V speaker system. The latest speaker in the Handcrafted Master’s
Series, the Legacy V ushers in the new benchmark in speaker systems.
