EX Speaker Series S-1EX S-2EX S-7EX S-W1EX
1975 2005 TAD (Pioneer’s Technical Audio Device department) develops the TAD Pro Audio monitoring drivers. They are acknowledged as ‘‘best of the best’’ in the professional audio industry. 2000 The EX Series is born. A flagship model for Pioneer’s speaker systems around the world, this speaker collection uses many of the technical specifications of the highly acclaimed TAD-M1.
Speaking of Excellence Pioneer has been breaking the boundaries of first-class entertainment for decades. Through the years, we have grown, flourished and changed with our customers and their aspirations, earning ourselves a top-ranked spot among the classics. It all began with the design and production of dynamic speakers. For this unique speaker collection, Pioneer has returned to its origins.
Witness the Creation of Superior Audio The first step in the painstaking development of Pioneer’s premium speaker series is the creation of an outstanding concentric tweeter/midrange speaker driver. Cutting-edge TAD technologies allow the driver to reproduce exceptionally accurate audio. Every element has been crafted using only the highest-quality materials, ensuring that all frequencies of this wide-range driver are always precise and laser-sharp, boasting extraordinary liveliness and delicacy.
Give Deeper Meaning to Sound The next element to be developed is the EX Series’ meticulously designed bass driver. Also packed with TAD technology and first-class components, it guarantees superior sound performance, even at very low frequencies. The extremely rigid and solid cone structure creates more stable and uniform cone movement, as well as enhanced damping properties. Unnecessary reaction and resonance are significantly reduced by the specially designed basket frame.
The Science of Sensation Coherent Source Transducer In our eternal quest to offer you unrivalled sound perfection, we have taken innovative design further than ever before. In sound perception, every element must be considered. Even the slightest detail can make a world of difference. With an ideal system, all sounds produced by the loudspeakers arrive at the listeners’ ears simultaneously. If that doesn’t happen, the feeling of truly aligned performance is lost.
Solid, Strong, Superb With the tweeter/midrange and bass drivers perfected, an equally ingenious enclosure must be created to provide them with a stable base. The EX Series’ cabinets are crafted from multiple layers of laminated MDF, ranging from a minimum of 30 mm up to a generous 100 mm, to ensure that they remain inert. Along with the curved baffle and radius edges, these enclosures help create an amazingly realistic stage with exceptional clarity and focus.
ABD Vertical standing waves are a phenomenon that occurs in nearly all speaker enclosures. Responsible for uneven, boomy or sucked out bass response, vertical standing waves generated inside tall floor-standing cabinets are extremely difficult to control. But not for Pioneer.
Solid Credentials The flagship EX Series has been created by a talented network of high-end audio specialists consisting of only the very best TAD and Pioneer engineers from around the world. They have each added their individual expertise to co-create this first-class model of audio excellence. In addition, Andrew Jones, chief engineer of the TAD-M1, acted as sound advisor to ensure the success of this ambitious project.
The Mark of Excellence Revolutionary Phase Control Not only has the latest technology that we have explained above been used in the design of the EX Series, but the latest results of Pioneer’s unique research into audio sound reproduction are also being actively used. This is the revolutionary “phase control” technology.
