Power conditioning is provided by Audes balanced transformers, with AudioQuest cabling used throughout the system.
ATLANTIS LAB AT16 AND AT18 FOR SMALLER LISTENING ROOMS
The AT16 and AT18 are the more compact models in the range and are designed for small to medium-sized rooms. Both use compression high-frequency drivers alongside front and rear-mounted woofers, with quoted sensitivities of 94.5dB and 96dB respectively. Frequency response is stated as 40Hz to 20kHz.
ATLANTIS LAB AT21 AND AT23 OFFER GREATER LOW-FREQUENCY EXTENSION
Moving up the range, the AT21 and AT23 employ larger cabinets and drivers while maintaining high efficiency figures of 96dB and 96.5dB. Both models use a horn-loaded compression tweeter and a 21cm paper-cone woofer, with additional rear-mounted drivers. The larger enclosures extend low-frequency performance to a quoted 35Hz for the AT21 and 33Hz for the AT23.
ATLANTIS LAB DEMONSTRATIONS THROUGHOUT THE WEEKEND
Bourne Audio has scheduled dedicated listening sessions across both days of the show. Saturday demonstrations will feature the AT18 during the morning, followed by the AT16 and then the larger AT21 and AT23 models.
