Deluc reveals: “The distinctive construction technique of Philharmonia helps neutralise standing waves affecting sonic clarity and low-frequency definition, through an extremely complex internal structure using a combination of interlocking panels arranged in two perpendicular planes, each hosting several tuned notch resonators.” It features a unique hybrid laminar port using progressive termination. The Philharmonia features a curved structure that is both simple and complex, consisting of 547 wood veneers accurately machined and assembled, offering a distinctive look and volume. Amadeus especially praises tradition, and the new speakers combine innovation as well as timeless beauty christened ‘Philharmonia’, they embody the know-how, the creativity, and the values with which Amadeus has been building its history for more than 35 years.” The new speakers were designed by Michel Deluc, Amadeus’ director of research & development, along with world-renown architect Jean Nouvel, who designed the new Philharmonie de Paris concert hall.īernard Byk (pictured, below), co-founder and CEO of Amadeus, says: “Imagine a reference sound system with exceptional design, ergonomics and acoustics, that for Amadeus is recognition that we have achieved the highest level of creative and technical collaboration in our company’s history! Jean Nouvel’s imagination, exuberance and creative genius, combined with Michel Deluc’s engineering, brought a brilliant solution to life. The new speakers were initially created specifically for the Philharmonie de Paris recording and mastering studios, which were built to capture performances by the world’s most prestigious symphonic orchestras. Unveiled as a ‘concept-speaker’ during the last Frankfurt Prolight + Sound and Munich High End Society trade shows, the Philharmonia is a very high definition monitoring system combining innovation and technology with style and a pristine sonic character. French pro-audio manufacturer Amadeus, renowned for live, installed, and custom studio sound reinforcement systems, announced during the 38th edition of the Paris HI-FI Show on 17 and 18 October that their new ‘Philharmonia’ speakers are now shipping.
