Ex-Audiovector dealer selling a pair of R 1 Arrete speakers in Italian Walnut finish with Gun Metal grey Audiovector stands. This pair was purchased for our store about two years ago and are in perfect condition, but I did find one small nick on the Audiovector badge (see picture). I have the factory boxes for the speaker and stands. I don't have the Audiovector Freedom Grounding cable, but I do have one I had Analysis Plus build for us and I will include it in the sale. The best way to ship these would be via freight on a pallet and I have a company I use and trust. Contact Scott at sco[email protected] or call/text (972)754-8359 with any questions.

R 1

COMPACT HIGH-END PERFORMERS

The R 1 Series delivers a speedy response with great detail and dynamics. The design handles of percussions and bass notes easy in a clean, nimble and natural way. These 2-way, rear-ported stand-mount speakers, use a non-parallel tear drop design to minimize internal standing waves. Using concepts derived from their larger siblings, the R 6 & R 3 models, the R 1 Series delivers a precise soundstage with a sense of power and punch that belies their size. These little wonders leave the listener wanting more.

In order to take full advantage of the Audiovector tweeters and the hand assembled mid/bass drivers made with Aramid Composite membranes, the front baffle is narrow. The result is a smooth, precise sound diffusion – an ‘out of the box’ sound that keeps unwanted diffraction distortion to an absolute minimum.

Audiovector Freedom is a new and revolutionary grounding technology, which addresses the movement induced distortion of and between the drive units in a loudspeaker. The currents running between the chassis are being processed and dealt with through a new separate crossover, which routes the signal to the ground terminal of your wall socket or your grounded mains distribution unit. Contrary to conventional knowledge, these currencies cause coloration and distortion between the drive units. By balancing and filtering these through a dedicated separate filter and by offering the possibility of connecting the speakers to earth/ground, we achieve a clean, very accurate, significantly more realistic sound with a low noise floor. Arreté models only.
