LAS VEGAS, NV, January 16, 2006–SLS Loudspeakers, the makers of high-end speaker systems for critical listening environments, live venues and home theater applications, announced the release of the new state-of-the-art HT2401 5.1 surround sound system at CES 2006 (LVCC SO 2 Booth #26535). The HT2401 system incorporates two of the company’s new HT805T, one HT805C (horizontally oriented center channel), two HT805Ss as rear channels and one HT805W 12”, powered sub woofers. The HT2401 is perfectly matched for use in home theater and listening rooms alike. The company’s planar ribbon driver technology facilitates crystal clear articulation and results in extremely realistic imaging.
“The HT2401 is composed of new enclosures that are acoustically optimized with a true form, curved side 1” MDF cabinet with an extensive internal bracing and beautiful book matched real wood veneer,” says Jeff Lowry, director of marketing for SLS Loudspeakers. “The new crossover design throughout the system creates an overall real home theatre experience in addition to pure audiophile quality for music reproduction. The floor standing units have adjustable feet for stability and leveling on carpet or hard surfaces without damaging the floor.”
HT2401 System includes the following speakers:
The HT805T is a dual-woofer design that is a perfect selection for a floor-standing, high-fidelity speaker solution expressed through two 8” woofers and a PRD500 Ribbon Driver. The additional enclosure volume, placement of the woofers and port facilitate a lower, overall frequency response that delivers the legendary definition and upper-end clarity of the HT805C coupled with one of the industry's roundest and warmest lower registers. Also well suited for recording studios and commercial sound, the HT805T is the perfect Left-Right system for advanced home theater installations delivering an accurate frequency response of 30 to 40,000 Hz with a power handling capacity of 250 watts RMS.
The HT805C is used as the center channel speaker in the HT2401 Series. The double 8” woofers combined with a signature SLS PRD500 ribbon high frequency driver provide an extremely flat frequency response of 52 to 40,000 Hz for full range high definition sound. The HT805C is well suited for a recording studio, commercial sound or larger home theatre installations, delivering a full 200 Watts RMS.
The HT805S is designed after the highly praised S8R world-class studio reference monitor. The single 8” polycone woofer with integral phase plug coupled with the signature SLS high-output PRD500 5” Ribbon Driver provides extremely flat frequency response from 44 to 40,000 Hz for full range high definition sound. While ideal for 2-channel or full-surround home theatre listening, the HT805S handles the left and right surround positions for the HT2401 system delivering a full 125 Watts RMS to envelop the listener in the sound field.
The HT805W powered Subwoofer provides the ground shaking bass that lets the listener experience a visceral response to a modern sound track, thereby completing the home theater environment. Powered by an integral 300-watt amplifier, the 12” subwoofer, rated at 200 Watts RMS, delivers a very smooth and flat response of 28 to 150 Hz. Complete with a selectable and defeatable crossover, low and high level inputs, and feed through connections, the HT805W produces very warm and musical low frequencies, suitable for studio reference and two-channel critical listening as well.
All cabinets in the HT2401 system come in Rosenut, Cherry, Maple and High Gloss Piano Black to fit any décor.
SLS Loudspeakers, a division of SLS International, designs, manufactures and markets proprietary ultra high-fidelity ribbon-driver loudspeakers and sound systems for professional, commercial and residential applications. The publicly traded company (AMEX: SLS) was founded in the 1970s and its products are used in hundreds of installations worldwide.
