Synchrony T600
The Synchrony T600 Premium Tower Speaker features an all-new 5-way transitional array capable of delivering the most technically refined and demanding music and film recordings, with unmatched tonal, spatial, and dynamic accuracy. Consisting of 3 x 6.5″ woofers and a 5.25″midrange driver, all with cast aluminium baskets, woven carbon fibre cones and rubber surrounds, and a 1″ titanium dome tweeter with Ferrofluid and Neodymium magnet, the new driver platform results in a dramatic reduction of non-linear distortion, allowing for higher sound pressure levels without compression or increased THD and IM distortion. The advanced driver assembly features four elements (Faraday ring, shorted turn, longer voice coil, symmetrical magnetic drive) that all work in harmony to reduce driver distortion.

The T600s feature unbelievably robust, acoustically inert MDF cabinets with aluminum-clad front baffles for maximum rigidity and density, with individually-tuned chambers and rear-firing ports for each woofer to break up in-speaker standing waves.

The amplitude-perfect Linkwitz-Riley 4th order crossover network of the T600 is the most advanced crossover that PSB Speakers has ever utilized, featuring high-voltage polyfilm capacitors and oxygen-free interconnect wire for complete driver control.

The T600s incorporate custom-designed IsoAcoustics integrated isolation feet, based on the same 3-part technology of their award-winning GAIA II isolators. Along with the outrigger stabilizers, the isolators provide a high degree of speaker isolation and control, while resisting lateral movement and oscillations to maintain accuracy and alignment with the listening position. Internal reflections with the supporting surface are attenuated resulting in greater sound clarity and openness.

Available in two gorgeous finishes, Satin Walnut veneer and High Gloss Black, the T600 features magnet-mounted acoustically-transparent fabric grilles. Using the two provided bass port covers, listeners can fine tune the bass to control common room resonance problems at low frequencies. Also included are two speaker terminal jumper bars to allow for tri-and bi-wiring, as well as tri-and bi-amping. The insulated 5-way binding posts offer versatility in speaker terminal connectors. 

Synchrony B600
Using the same all-new driver platform as the flagship Synchrony T600 towers, the B600 can be an easy complement to the towers or a standalone stand-out compact listening option. The 2-way bass reflex design features a 6.5″ woofer with cast aluminium basket and woven carbon fibre cone, and a 1″ titanium dome tweeter with Ferrofluid and Neodymium magnet. The light and rigid nature of woven carbon fibre cone delivers wider bandwidth ? about half an octave deeper bass response over other PSB driver designs ? with greater efficiency (88dB at 1m), higher power handling, and lower distortion.

Heavily braced MDF cabinets with aluminum-clad front baffles on the B600 provide maximum rigidity and density to reduce ?baffle talk? around the drive frame. A rear-firing port regulates air compression in the cabinet. The IsoAcoustics isolating feet on the B600 provide a secure, stable, non-resonant connection with the optional SST-24 stand or other mounting surface.

The amplitude-perfect Linkwitz-Riley 4th order crossover network of the B600 features high-voltage polyfilm capacitors and oxygen-free interconnect wire for complete driver control.

Listeners can customize their experience with speaker terminal jumper bars to allow for bi-amping or bi-wiring for better matching between the power amplifier and speaker. The insulated dual 5-way binding posts offer versatility in speaker terminal connectors.
