At Arendal Sound, we pay meticulous attention to every component in our speakers to ensure optimal performance, longevity, and sonic clarity. One of the key features that set our Bookshelf, Tower, and Monitor speakers apart is their level adjustability, allowing for fine-tuning in various room environments. Here’s a breakdown of the high-quality components and design choices that make our speakers stand out.
Level Adjustability for Optimal In-Room Performance
Our speakers feature level adjusters made from pure oxygen-free copper, plated with Rhodium. This combination offers two key benefits:
•Optimal Sonic Performance: Rhodium’s conductive properties ensure that the signal remains as pure and clear as possible.
•Longevity: Rhodium plating protects the copper from corrosion, ensuring long-lasting durability without compromising audio quality.
Bi-Wire/Bi-Amp Terminals and Jumpers
We also offer bi-wire and bi-amp terminals, allowing users to enhance the performance of their speaker setup by dedicating separate amps to the midrange/high-frequency section and the woofer section. These terminals and jumpers are made from solid pieces of copper plated with Rhodium, once again ensuring:
•Enhanced Sound Performance: Clear signal transmission without interference.
•Long-Term Durability: Rhodium plating extends the life of these crucial components.
Heavy-Gauge Air-Core Inductors for Optimal Clarity and Dynamics
The woofer sections of our speakers feature heavy-gauge air-core inductors with a thickness of 2 square millimeters, while the midrange and tweeter sections also utilize air-core inductors. The use of these high-quality inductors results in:
•Improved Clarity: Minimal distortion and greater transparency in sound.
•Better Dynamics: Enhanced responsiveness, especially during complex musical passages.
Premium Capacitors for Optimal Sonic Reproduction
We use Polypropylene capacitors for the tweeter and midrange sections and large Polyester capacitors for the woofer sections. This selection ensures:
•Sonic Reproduction at Its Best: Clear, accurate sound across the entire frequency range.
High-Quality Resistors for Superior Heat Management
Our speakers use wire-wound resistors and aluminium heat-sinked wire-wound resistors that can handle extreme heat without affecting performance. This attention to detail ensures:
•Sonic Clarity: Resistors maintain signal integrity, even under stress.
•Longevity: These components are built to last, handling heat without degradation.
Advanced Crossover Design
We use 4th-order filters for the midrange and high-frequency sections, and 3rd-order filters between the woofer and midrange across the entire speaker series. This advanced crossover design contributes to:
•Seamless Integration: Smooth transitions between frequencies for a well-balanced soundstage.
•Superior Audio Precision: Greater control over frequency distribution for detailed audio reproduction.
Non-Ferrous Parts in the Signal Chain
To ensure absolute signal purity, we use only non-ferrous parts—meaning no steel nuts or washers that could interfere with the signal. This prevents signal smearing, resulting in the cleanest, most accurate sound possible.
Conclusion
At Arendal Sound, we’re committed to using only the highest quality components to ensure our speakers deliver unmatched performance in their price range. From Rhodium-plated copper components to advanced crossover designs, every detail is engineered to provide the best sonic experience possible. Our level adjustability features, combined with premium materials and meticulous craftsmanship, ensure that our speakers will not only sound great but will also stand the test of time.
