Some Interesting Stuff at KLIAV2013

The new Pathos Frontier Prime loudspeakers demo-ed by Centre Circle Audio. The Pathos Frontiers Prime is a 3-way design with frequency response of 27Hz-30kHz

Note the additional drivers at the back of the speakers. The Pathos Frontiers Prime is a bipolar design

Another unique design feature – the top part of the speakers housing the tweeter and midrange driver can be rotated independently of the main body, facilitating easy toe-in.
