Tad Reference One

Its beauty is as amazing in its form and function. The pair of proprietary 10-inch bass drivers reproduce frequencies from below 25 Hz to 250 Hz with stunning authority. Cones are a tri-laminate of woven aramid fibers sandwiching a foamed acrylic core, resulting in transducers possessing enormous rigidity and speed that reproduce the very loudest bass passages without distortion. Bass drivers are enclosed within a thick multi-laminate structure, engineered to eliminate standing waves and resonances through careful cabinet design and construction. ISO-Drive technology mechanically isolates the CST driver within a dedicated enclosure, reducing transfer of mechanical energy that can smear imaging and detail. The teardrop shape of the Reference One minimizes front baffle- and rear-diffraction anomalies, while its 330-pound mass contributes to the authority and weight of bass fundamentals that can only be achieved through such uncompromising design.
