The Tri-Art Audio Open 5 is a high-end open baffle speaker system designed with five drivers: an 18" sub bass, 15" mid bass, 8" midrange, 1" soft dome tweeter, and a super tweeter. It features a bamboo ply baffle with a unique clamping system for driver attachment, enhancing both aesthetics and acoustic performance. The system includes remote crossovers with adjustable volume control to tailor bass response for room integration and tonal balance. It is designed for recommended amplifier power ranging from 25 to 150 watts RMS and offers a wide frequency response from 27 Hz to 40,000 Hz. Sensitivity is rated at 94 dB SPL (1W/1M) with a nominal impedance of 8 ohms. The crossover has two inputs and three outputs, with included 0.5-meter jumper cables with banana plugs. This speaker system is known for its spacious, natural soundstage and precise imaging, leveraging the open baffle design to reduce coloration and room interaction typical of boxed speakers.
