Harbeth Nelson: Speaker stands with active subwoofers

For the first time in its long history, the British company Harbeth presented Nelson active subwoofers , designed as original stands for its smallest monitors P3 and BBC-LS3/5A . As a result, according to the manufacturer, it was possible to expand the operating range of the little ones to 35 Hertz at a level of -3 dB.

The power of the amplifier built into the Nelson subwoofer is 50 W, and a self-produced woofer with a diameter of 11 cm is used as a driver. The subwoofers have level control so users can achieve optimal aural matching between monitors and subwoofers.

Harbeth Nelson subwoofers are equipped with external 24 V power supplies and are connected in parallel with monitors. The Harbeth Nelson subwoofer not only results in improved bass performance, the manufacturer claims it improves music reproduction across the entire frequency range.

For obvious reasons, Harbeth Nelson speaker stands and subwoofers are sold in pairs. The recommended retail price for this pair is €3,998 in Europe
