Pioneer Electronics SP-FS52 130W Andrew Jones Designed Floorstanding Loudspeaker, 87dB Sensitivity, 40Hz-20kHz, 6Ohms Impedance, 5.3" Woofers, 1" Tweeter, Single

Designed with uncompromising attention to detail, the Pioneer Electronics SP-FS52 130W Andrew Jones Designed Floorstanding Loudspeaker offers remarkable audio quality from CDs, videos, gaming and any other audio source. Using three 5.25" woofers with oversized magnets for powerful bass, the speaker delivers the kind of high performance and exceptional quality that makes for a stunning music and home theater experience. The high-performance and exceptional sound quality is the result of this stiffer design, which reduces standing sound waves inside the cabinet.

Crossover
The job of the crossover in a speaker is to break the audio signal into low, high and sometimes mid-range frequencies. It's an important job and it uses circuitry like inductors and capacitors to accomplish it. Much of the competition uses an extremely simple, low-cost crossover made up of a single capacitor and inductor. The Pioneer SP-FS52 utilizes a sophisticated 8 component high quality crossover. The reasoning is simple: they do it because it's one more way of insuring high quality sound that makes its presence known.

Woofer
There are many challenges designing and manufacturing a woofer capable of delivering true bass performance. In the SP-FS52, we've added a structured surface to the 5-1/4 inch woofer. By doing so, not only is rigidity improved, so is bass accuracy. Engineers have also vented the pole piece, again improving bass response from the same size woofers in previous models.

Tweeter
To widen the sweet spot of the 1-inch High Efficiency Soft Dome tweeter, we've engineered a custom wave guide. Increasing tweeter efficiency, together with newly designed crossovers, allows the SP-FS52's play louder using less power.

A Taller Speaker
When designing the SP-FS52s, Pioneer listened carefully to what users were saying they wanted. As a result, they increased the speaker height by 3". The result is improved sound quality due to the speakers being closer to ear-level.
