About the Airmotiv T-Zero+
The Emotiva Airmotiv T-Zero+ is a two-way floorstanding tower speaker designed for high-performance stereo and home theater systems in compact spaces. It features a 25x32 mm (or 32x25 mm) Airmotiv folded ribbon tweeter for detailed highs and two 5-1/4" woven fiber cone mid-woofer drivers—the upper optimized for midrange dispersion and the lower for bass response—sharing a 2500 Hz electrical crossover. Rear-ported cabinet tuning enhances low-frequency performance. Known for exceptional accuracy, smooth response, wide soundstage, and value at $399 per pair, it pairs well with amplifiers from 50-300W per channel. Factory renewed units available at reduced prices; indications suggest it may be discontinued.
