System Audio Ranger Master (Black Gloss) (Denmark)

System Audio, established in 1984, the Ranger Series especially the Master Ranger would have to be one of the very best speakers ever developed by System Audio, through all the years of development now enclosed into 1 speaker box.
Ranger Master is purely designed for the true audio enthusiast, comprising 5 Individual Speakers and using the patent XL Technology by SA these speakers will fill the room with quality music with out taking any space, a common design philosophy by System Audio.

The new standard

It is no coincidence that SA Ranger Master is shaped like a discreet exclamation mark. It is supposed to remind you of the joy of intimately experiencing music and movies.
SA Ranger Master is for people who want to be inspired by top-class entertainment in their homes. When you close your door, shutting out the hectic outside world, SA Ranger Master is open to any kind of musical experience: rock, pop, jazz, classical or whatever else you fancy. You can play soft background music or blast it out at high volumes for hours. You can move around or sit down. Everywhere you go you will experience uniform and faithfully reproduced sound quality. SA Ranger Master can also be integrated into your home cinema, and will convince you that it is worth spending time spoiling yourself with large-scale experiences.

Master is superior

SA Ranger Master contains the results of the advances brought about by the development of the original SA Ranger. Completely new approaches to the development of acoustics and electronics are used, and SA Ranger Master is the first speaker of its kind.

Developed in Special Sound Engineering Environment

To create SA Ranger Master a special test room with controlled acoustics was built. A protective environment was necessary for the sensitive measuring equipment to show its results with the greatest possible accuracy. New methods have been employed including a new analysis of how our human ears perceive sound. With our new knowledge we built our master. A loudspeaker, which in many respects is built like its role model, but offers more of everything

Only in SA Ranger Master

Inside the loudspeaker we have optimised the materials so that the air moves more freely with less compression. This part of loudspeaker design has been optimised in SA speakers for many years, but in SA Ranger Master we have gone even further. The crossover network – the speakers electrical circuit – is designed in a new way. The crossover’s primary job is to distribute the audio signal to the loudspeakers different drive units and the new crossover in SA Ranger Master process audio signals in a more gentle way, with the result that important information is not lost. This has been made possible because the acoustics have been improved. The new crossover and the improved acoustics led us to one of the world’s best cables, Nordost monofilament, which is used within the tweeter in SA Ranger Master. The four woofers are connected with Nordost wyrewizard cables.

Acoustics Invisible Quality

Acoustics is one of the least visible sciences. But superb acoustics liberate music and provide extraordinarily good sound. Acoustic perfection is only one of our goals, and our development process starts far away from laboratories and measuring rooms. Our speakers are designed to work in the homes of the people who choose to live with them. A number of the world’s leading acoustic engineers have contributed in the process to develop SA Ranger Master. It may be difficult to see, but you can`t avoid hearing it.

Straight Positioning

SA Ranger Master can be positioned anywhere you want although it does, of course, always pay to experiment a bit if you want the best possible sound. And when you sit in front of the speaker, the sound comes straight at you at ear level, just like sitting in front of the musicians themselves.

The SA W1104XL woofer:

Almost unbelievable performance
The little woofer has to be heard to be believed. W1104XL is the first 10.4 cm woofer capable of producing a genuinely deep and full-bodied bass sound. It is a technological achievement that will significantly enhance your musical experience.
Small woofers have advantages over big ones, and SA passes a milestone with the W1104XL. The light membranes sound more natural, and their small diameter allows for superior distribution of the sound. Reproducing bass sound is all about the ability of the speaker to move air. A small membrane has to work significantly harder to move the same air as a large membrane and so the challenge is to increase the membrane’s mobility. In this respect, W1104XL outperforms every other woofer of the same size.

Woofer Features:

The membrane’s mobility is 3,5 times greater than an ordinary woofer
Incredibly durable construction, both mechanical and electrical
The specially designed membrane weighs just 0.8 grams and is made of a paper-like material
The chassis is cast in aluminium and designed to enable substantial airflow
The heat is drained off by cooling ducts
The voice coil is made of fibreglass
A magnet system with built-in metal rings reduces distortion
XL technology is only available in SA speakers

Tweeter Features:

XS technology also ensures that the tweeter distributes sound over a greater area than traditional tweeters. Wherever you sit in the room, or even while moving around, you’ll still experience uniform sound quality. Ordinary tweeters emit the highest tones as a narrow ray, which means that you have to sit right in front of the speaker to get the full benefit of the experience XS technology extends the area in which you can enjoy the best possible sound quality
A 12 mm front plate made of cast aluminum serves as the vibration-free base from which the tweeter transmits information that requires precise membrane movements, all the way down to 0,0005
The unique textile membrane weighs only 80 mg possibly the lightest ever made
Separate built-in chamber behind the membrane
The T2506XS2 tweeter is magnetically shielded XS technology is only available in SA speakers
