Glenair 10
Utilising the the same design principles and proven acoustic benefits of a trapezoidal cabinet design of the Glenair, the Glenair 10 is a more compact speaker equipped with a 250mm (10.00") Dual concentric™ drive unit.
Plywood manufactured from birch grown in slow-growing cold regions of the world and selected for its denser quality is used for the main structure of the speaker cabinet. The combination of heavily damped material, comprehensive internal bracing and non-parallel side panels alleviate the problems associated with standing waves, ensuring that the loudspeaker is free from unwanted resonance.
Externally the cabinet is finely crafted with American Cherry veneer and solid wood mouldings hand finished and polished to an unsurpassed standard. No unsightly retaining lugs spoil the clean lines of the speaker’s front panel when the curved, acoustically transparent grille is removed; this thanks to the cleverly designed magnetised fixing method within the baffle structure.
"It can swing from low to high level with such speed and clarity that the attack of an instrument seems to be captured in all its vitality.... The Glenair does something that's far more important in our view, which is make the reviewer want to carry on listening... So, only the most appealing products get more attention than is necessary for the job; this speaker counts as one of them because it makes well-worn test tracks seem fresh and interesting again."
