Voiceright™ Makes Every Seat in the House Perfect
LOS ANGELES, CA – June 1, 2006 – Aperion Audio, the first audio company to provide a 30-Day Totally Risk-Free In-Home Audition tm, announces their new Intimus 634-VAC Center Channel Speaker. Designed to deliver the dramatic impact of theater sound in the comfort of your own home, Aperion Audio is featuring its new 634-VAC center channel at the 2006 Home Entertainment Show at the Los Angeles Sheraton Gateway Hotel from June 1st - 4 th in suite #424.
Until now, center channel placement had a significant effect on sound quality, and nearly all center channels under $1,000 were design compromises. Aperion’s VoiceRight tm adjustable crossover technology lets the 634-VAC adapt to its placement in your home theater by compensating for the effects of reflected sound off of large screen TVs and A/V cabinetry. In other words, whether it’s on a stand, in a cabinet, or on your TV -- VoiceRight tm makes every seat in the house perfect. The 634- VAC uses the vertical array design of their award winning 533-VAC along with HD-X3
“This is the center channel for people who want the ultimate ‘you are there’ theater experience,” said Aperion Audio CEO Win Jeanfreau, “Essentially, we turned one of our top-of-the line 633-T tower speakers on its side, added our new custom-designed midrange, and dramatically expanded the soundstage. Plus, our new Voiceright™ adjustable crossover technology redefines flexibility, giving our customers the pinnacle of home theater sound.”
The 634-VAC also boasts the award-winning features of the Intimus 6 Series -- the silk-dome tweeter, custom woven carbon-fiber 6.5” woofers, the mineral-filled polypropylene 5.25” midrange, Aperion Audio’s HD-X3
Features of the Intimus 634-VAC Center Channel Speaker:
Vertical Array Design
With a vertical array center channel, off-axis performance is optimized for crisp, unspoiled dialogue and midrange drop out is officially a thing of the past.
VoiceRight™ Adjustable Crossover Technology
Subtle nuances in detail make all the difference between a merely a “good home theater” and an “amazing theater experience”. The 634-VAC employs VoiceRight™ technology, which compensates for the effects of reflected sound off of large screen TVs and cabinetry. This allows you to place the 634-VAC where it fits your room, and frees you from the worries of fiddling around with center channel placement. Set it down, flip the switch and “you ARE there.”
1" Audiophile-Grade Silk-Dome Tweeter
A silk diaphragm means that this speaker sings. Silk gives remarkable detail, but also plays smooth and natural. Aperion Audio’s audiophile- grade 1-inch tweeter features ferrofluid cooling for high power handling and smooth response and a high quality heat sink, which means less distortion. Along with magnetic shielding, and a linear response faceplate for better horizontal dispersion, this tweeter is the high point of the speaker. Literally.
Mineral-Filled Polypropylene 5.25” Midrange
Aperion Audio ’s custom 5.25” mid-woofer is the voice of the 634-VAC loudspeaker. The cone is made of a mineral-filled polypropylene which provides resonance dampening and allows it to handle the demands of higher midrange frequencies. The loving embrace of a butyl rubber surround enables a compliant yet well-damped suspension. Last but certainly not least, the magnetically shielded driver boasts a solid polymer frame, super flat frequency response, and a deep commitment to keep you amazed for years to come. If this all sounds like Greek to you, just know this – your ears will be delighted, and the pleasure centers of your brain will rejoice.
Dual Custom Designed Long-Throw Woven Carbon Fiber 6.5” Woofers
Aperion Audio ’s custom 6.5” woofer is the soul of our 634-VAC speaker. The woofer is made of a strong and lightweight woven carbon fiber cone offering a super fast and accurate response. The magnetically shielded driver sports a solid metal frame, heavy rubber surround and extra-long excursion resulting in superior low bass extension.
Anti-Resonant Cabinet
Each 6-Series Speaker is made of 1" thick high-density fiberboard (HDF) to eliminate unwanted resonance and is finished in real cherry wood or high-gloss black lacquer. This first-rate cabinetry unites the acoustic- damping qualities of much more expensive loudspeakers with a furniture- grade finish so handsome your coffee table will be jealous.
Video Shielding
All drivers in the 634-VAC Speaker are magnetically shielded to protect video monitors from magnetic interferences, allowing placement on or near viewing devices.
HD-X3™ Impedance Leveling Crossover Technology
Patent pending HD-X3™ crossover technology levels the impedance load across the entire frequency range, creating a remarkably flat frequency response and eliminating the detrimental effects of resistance introduced by long runs of speaker wire.
5-Way Gold-Plated Binding Posts
Each 6-Series Speaker comes standard with audiophile quality gold-plated five-way binding posts, and accepts banana plugs (4mm), spades (3/8"), pins or bare wire to provide pure signal transfer and ultimate connection flexibility.
Acoustically Transparent Grille
An acoustically transparent grille is included with each speaker to protect the drivers from inquisitive kids and pets. The grille cloth is sonically invisible so speaker performance isn’t compromised.
