We like shoot-for-the-stars products. It’s always fascinating to see what a company can do when the sole concern is to maximise sound quality. This is what the range-topping Fact Fenestrias represent for PMC – an opportunity to take a fresh look at every part of loudspeaker design and come up with engineering solutions that are as free from budget constraints as they can be.
PMC has long had firm beliefs on all aspects of speaker design, so it was always unlikely to follow a totally different engineering path just because there is more money to be spent. The Fact Fenestrias still use a wooden cabinet, for example, though PMC has been highly imaginative in the way it has gone about reducing cabinet resonances.
It is also no surprise to find the use of a transmission line to tune the speakers’ low-frequency output either, as the company has long promoted the use of this type of arrangement. Why? The claim is that it gives lower distortion and more powerful bass for a given cabinet size compared with the usual reflex port configuration.
