Description

The Legacy Valor relies on graceful styling to conceal an
extraordinary arsenal of new technology.  At nearly six feet in
height and closing in on 300 pounds the Valor employs 2750 watts of internal
power per side and a 56 bit processor to reproduce even the most dynamic
performances with unprecedented detail.  

SOLD AS A FLOORSTANDING
SPEAKER PAIR WITH WAVELET DAC/PREAMP/CROSSOVER/ROOM CORRECTION

The advancements are the combined efforts of Legacy’s Chief
Engineer, Bill Dudleston and Bernt Böhmer, of Böhmer Audio, Sweden.  And
while the sonic results may appear magical, they are the summation of Dudleston’s
34 years of experience in the field of sound field reconstruction and Böhmer’s
highly touted mathematical algorithms.  Together they have developed
the Wavelet processor which tackles the problems of room resonances
and digital harshness while the new Stereo Unfold technology reveals hidden
layers of information by unmasking important spatial and harmonic cues
otherwise lost in playback. 

The Valor system as a whole is about acoustic
steering and making sure that both lateral and vertical information on the
recording appears appropriately in the time domain.  In a two stage
process the Room Correction algorithm cleans up the early unwanted
reflections from your room’s floor, ceiling and walls, thereby
allowing the Stereo Unfold algorithm to restore the vectors encoded in the
L/R information.  The result is a clearer sound with more depth front to
back and a more open and spacious soundstage. Localization is more precise
as each performer seems to have their own dimensional space.  Timbre is
richer as readily demonstrated by the sonorous reed and bell characteristics of
the saxophone.  With pumping of the hi-hat pedal you can almost feel
the flow of the air accelerating outward.  Brushes cleanly circle on
the snare head and the floor tom has a resounding bounce. Harmonics of vocals
and stringed instruments are so natural that  stereo playback pales
in comparison.  Image placement is no less than remarkable.
