Venture Loudspeakers

Xtreme
Performance Above and Beyond
The Xtremes are impressively the largest speakers of the Ultimate Series.They are equipped with 13 Venture drivers, consisting of one 2”dynamic AGC tweeter, two 5”CFGC midrange drivers, four 7” CFGC underhung midrange drivers and six 9” CFGC bass drivers on the side panels. The concept of mounting the 9” bass drivers on the side panels ensures that there is superb coherence in the very low bass registers that eliminates the necessity of separate bass towers. Bass towers bring the complications of locating two more speakers in the listening room to achieve both phase continuity and eliminating bass reflection peaks and valleys at the listening position. Thus, the Xtremes can produce extremely powerful and well-detailed bass and has excellent definition with clearly defined transients and details.

Ultimate
Star of the Ultimate Series
The Ultimate speaker is a Star because it combines outstanding performance with a reasonable price tag. The Star uses all Abaca based graphite composite drivers (AGC) with the elegant C cabinet shape and a new crossover design. The result is a speaker that is pitch perfect over the whole bandwidth with incredibly resolved tonal structures. The sound stage is large with a seemingly nonexistent noise floor and tightly focused images that can stand completely alone without any hint of inter-modulation between them. The three Graphite Composite woofers utilize a newly designed voice coil that is responsible for bass that is powerful, very well resolved and reaches down to subterranean levels. The whole combination of the 3 Abaca Graphite drivers delivers a rich natural sound that is coherent and beautifully believable
