Avalon Acoustics PM2.2 Loudspeakers

The Avalon PM2.2 is the replacement model for the original PM2. It is a full range reference monitor designed specifically for superlative tonal and spatial accuracy. Recovery of fine low-level detail, without exaggeration or aggressive high frequency etching, was Avalon’s specific design goal. Accurate tracing of all waveform parameters within a dynamic energy field is the hallmark of the PM2.2, an elegant and truthful high-resolution transducer for home or studio.

As with the PM1.2 the new PM2.2 has new bespoke drive units, a revised crossover network and all new internally wiring

Each model in the Precision Monitor line presents exceptional spatial sound-staging, recovering the lowest level hall reverberation detail, the hallmark of true high-resolution monitors. Flat frequency response and phase linear time and transient behavior deliver an accurate rendition of all the crucial elements that go into a recording. Whether for home or studio, the Precision Monitors define the state of the art in high-energy reference transducers.

• Proprietary Silent Inert Cabinet material/process
• Meticulous tracking of power response, amplitude response, phase response, and transient response for unparalleled ambience retrieval and natural tonality
• Purely pistonic wavefront generation with smooth open lobing characteristics
• Stored energy elimination (SEE) technology produces clear stable imaging and black backgrounds even under heavy SPL demands
• Entirely resistive and finite loading from 10Hz to 250KHz minimizing amplifier perturbation effects
• Advanced light weight driver diaphragm materials minimize energy storage and time-domain distortion.
• Each driver individually tested and matched for optimum performance.
• Smooth, wide polar response for superlative imaging capabilities.
• Moderate impedance characteristic allows for ideal interface with any amplifier.
• Crossover circuitry is hard-wired with surface-only conductors, eliminating deleterious sonic effects of printed-circuit boards.
• Proprietary all-phase crossover topologies
• Careful crossover control of all magnetic field interaction.
• Proprietary magnetics technology increases energy transfer and reduces noise floor.
• Constrained-mode damping system absorbs cabinet vibrations.
