Kathar
Psallo Kathar. Psallo means to sing and Kathar means to
surround. The Psallo Kathar are the matching surround speakers for the
Psallo series. They can also be used as wall mounted for an in room
music system. They offer considerable benefits over in-wall speakers
that are very susceptible to harmonic resonance and poor airflow
characteristics.
The Psallo Kathar are exciting not just because of their frequency
response that extends from 56 Hz to over 40 kHz, but also because of
their amazing detail. As a surround speaker detail is critical in
creating an emotive environment in a movie. Because of the exceptional
detail the Psallo Kathar offer movies are more lifelike and three
dimensional.
The form is very aerodynamic. This eliminates standing waves both inside
and outside the speaker. Standing waves are turbulent air pockets that
occur around and inside square speakers. When they occur the flow of
clean air and with it clean sound is impeded. Because we have gone to
such lengths to eliminate the standing waves, detail, efficiency and
tight bass is much improved.
The cabinets are made from a special laminate made for us by custom wood
just north of Christchurch. They are formed under extreme pressure and
at moderate temperature in such away that they can not flex like a
typical flat sided speaker. Cabinet resonance is virtually eliminated.
This is very important as that resonance can destroy the emotive
listening experience. This harmonic resonance is usually at one
frequency and just like our brain will turn down annoying sounds when we
live next to a busy road or airport it will turn down a harmonic in
speakers. The problem is that our brain will turn down a lot more of the
audio spectrum than just the harmonic so we loose a lot of the
capability of the speakers, especially where quality is critical around
the vocal spectrum
Incorporating our new high detail 5” woofer and a 22mm silk dome tweeter
both music and sound effects are clear, precise and very fast. The
Psallo Kathar are designed to sonically blend well with the Psallo
Kardia main speakers.
We produce the Psallo Kathar In a range of finishes but can on request
finish a pair to your own specifications where ever you are in the
world.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
