R58

The R58 is our entry level quality monitor. It can be used in a small room without a subwoofer or as the mains, surround or center channel in a home theater. As a center channel,  the R58 provides very high fidelity with extremely broad horizontal dispersion. 

The R58 is not magnetically shielded so floor placement on a stand is ideal for tube TVs. Its good sensitivity (89dB) combined with its very high impedance (7 ohms DC minimum) allows for excellent results when used with low powered tube amps.

The R58 offers the maximum soundstage in the minimum size. 

When used in a small rooms a sub is not necessary.

 The more air the R58 has to work with,  the better the soundstage will be.

 

 A stereo pair can grow into a 4-5 channel system. They can be moved to the rear when larger ribbons are used in the front.
