![]() | ![]() The Subsonic PM 1 Polymorphic Technology main speaker is the flagship of the POLY MORPHIC main speaker range. For a serious performance speaker for your home cinema set-up or HI-FI requirements the PM 1 is the ideal choice. Add to all this the fact that the PM 1 is able to change impedance and perform at it's best in a variety of environments and you have a loudspeaker that will suit nearly any environment imaginable This speaker has been designed differently from the ground up. The goal was to design a loudspeaker that would create the ultimate home cinema or music experience while being adaptable to a wide range of listening environments. Whatever your decor, room size or choice of flooring the PM 1 is able to be tailored to fit in without the additional expense that may be incurred using equalisers, DSP processors and the like. Traditionally, speakers have been designed based on performance in an unnatural environment such as an anechoic chamber. Eventually some engineers decided to include "real world" listening tests in that process. While initially meeting with scepticism eventually this process has been adopted by most designers. Over the years there have been speakers for small rooms, speakers for large rooms, speakers for tiled rooms ... you get the picture! The Polymorphic design philosophy involved identifying and classifying these main acoustic variables within many different but typical listening environments. This led us to several classes of loudspeaker design which worked very well in these different conditions. The breakthrough was to build and offer these designs in one complete package - the Polymorphic's. These loudspeakers thus ensure you get the optimal performance regardless of where you set them up! |
While developing the PM 1 (and the rest of the POLY MORPHIC range) we were careful not to include any extra components in the signal chain. The detail inherent in music is just as important as tonal quality and we did not want to sacrifice one for the other. Now, while extracting the maximum detail from what is available, the last thing you need is an amplifier that can't deliver the goods into certain loads.
Most amplifiers these days are asked to drive 5 or 6 channels to very high levels and extended periods of time. This can present an unbearable strain on some amplifiers and the result can be very unpleasant. With the PM 1 you are able to set the impedance of the loudspeaker while not degrading any part of it's performance. You may be waiting for that audiophile amp and or your budget may not stretch to the esoteric land of HI-END amplification. Either way the PM 1 will can be tailored to any normal amplifier.
