ProAc Tablette Reference 8-NEW ACTION

From the moment of its launch in 1979 the ProAc Tablette has been acclaimed as one of the greatest mini-monitors of all time. Many thousands of pairs have been sold over the last twenty-three years and this stunning little loudspeaker has become a firm favourite with
music lovers worldwide.

The original Tablette cabinet was just 101/2"(266mm) high and 6"(152mm) wide and 9" (228mm) deep. However the limitations of drive unit technology in those days meant that this pioneering design was not able to offer the scale of soundstage, extended bass and increased power handling common in larger designs. Over succeeding years therefore, through seven more incarnations, the size of the Tablette cabinet was increased to meet this demand, culminating in the current Tablette 2000 model.

ProAc Reference 8 Signature Mahagony-NEW ACTION

The Tablette Reference Eight, launched in 2001, has proved a hugely successful restatement of the original Tablette design of 1979. Reborn in its earliest cabinet configuration but housing far more technically refined and powerful drive units, it produces a scale and quality of sound unimaginable over two decades ago. Now however, this enduring design scales new heights with the Reference Eight Signature.
At the heart of this major leap forward is a remarkable new bass/midrange driver. Four times as expensive as the standard unit used in the Reference Eight, this new driver incorporates a neodymium bar magnet, copper rings and a copper phase plug. These components add up to vastly improved performance, with even greater linearity and lower distortion. The bass is more excitingly dynamic and the midrange considerably more open. Loading is by small twin reflex ports which reduce unwanted colouration.

A high quality crossover network is coupled directly to the terminals to eradicate any deterioration in the signal paths. This redesigned board incorporates a larger bass inductor than the original Tablette and gives higher output with lower distortion. The crossover knits the midrange seamlessly to the output of the completely new tweeter, a sophisticated 1" soft dome unit with a large surround which produces an exceptionally flat response, outstanding smoothness and fine detail.

The cabinet itself is made from costly marine birch ply which is critically damped and tuned with high grade acoustic material. As ever with ProAc loudspeakers, the Reference Eight Signatures are completed by exquisite real wood veneer, but in keeping with their exclusivity are only available in the most exotic finishes.

The Tablette Reference Eight Signature is a definitive monitor level design. The remarkably flat frequency response is characterised by a smooth, natural and detailed output delivered with a surprising level of power, weight and scale. This diminutive powerhouse can be placed on shelves or ledges, but for true highend listening is best mounted on heavy rigid stands.

Naim CD5XS exdemo

The CD5x uses every possible development from earlier and more costly Naim CD players to help establish it as the reference entry-level CD player. The drawer and transport suspension is borrowed from the CDX2; a low inertia, resonance-controlling device that ensures rigid coupling and mild damping without adding to the task of the drive servo mechanism by increasing rotational inertia.

• Harbeth

HL-P3 ES Eucalyptus NEW ACTION

The skilfully implemented sound balance deceives the ear into thinking that this little speaker must be much larger than it is - which is why it is widely used as a near-field reference monitor.

Descended directly from the Harbeth BBC LS3/5A, the HL-P3ES2 has been in production for nearly 20 years, almost equalling that of the LS3/5A itself. It is, quite simply, the best all-round mini-monitor. When coupled to good quality electronics, the P3ES2 still continues to set the world standard for miniature monitors. At the heart of this successful design was bettering the bass performance of its predecessor and reducing coloration which is now at a level remarkable for a cabinet of such small dimensions. This design has stood the test of time excelling in the cohesion of sound stage, pin-sharp image positioning and remarkable 'big sound' - all from a small cabinet. Ideal in a small room or where space is at a premium. Also makes perfect rear channel speakers.
 
The crossover network features no-expense-spared components to perfectly integrate the sound pressure and phase response of the bass/mid and tweeter units. The necessarily complex LS3/5A and HL-P3ES2 crossover design strategy is covered on this site in 'Designer's Notebook Chapter 5'.

Naim Fraim-4 levels ex demo

- Superior aesthetics: The Fraim styling complements Naim and most other hi-fi equipment and uses the best possible materials and finishes.
 - Versatility: The Fraim consists of levels that are placed one upon another which can be added to or completely changed in configuration as the equipment is upgraded.
 - Ease of assembly and maintenance: Levels can be quickly assembled and, because each stand interface is a tripod making it self-levelling, there are no adjustments needed to remove rocking or vibration. The stand will remain in perfect adjustment over time.
 - Best possible sound: The inter-level cup-spike interfaces and the triple-action ball decouplers underneath the equipment shelves minimise the effect of microphonics on the sensitive electronic assemblies inside the equipment. Careful choice of materials for interfaces and shelves has optimised performance.
  - The Fraim system support provides an ideal environment for Naim and other hi-fi equipment to achieve its full potential performance.
