Schertler Side Active Loudspeaker
Side has been conceived and developed as an extension for the Schertler UNICO or as a stand-alone active loudspeaker system. Due to the success of UNICO, a 4-channel combo amplifier designed for acoustic instruments (see www.schertler.com/unico.html), Schertler developed Side using the same high-quality components and circuitry. From inputs to loudspeakers, all aspects of Side were selected for their natural and accurate response.
As in UNICO, two power amps with an active crossover supply 150 watts to the 8” woofer and 35 watts to the 1” dome tweeter. The result is velvety, clear harmonics with a controlled, strong low end (down to 40 Hz). The technology of biamplification produces a very transparent sound as well as providing maximum efficiency by properly matching amplifiers to loudspeakers. In addition, each power amplifier features limiter circuitry to deliver secure speaker protection. Amplifiers are built with bipolar transistors (no MOS-FETs) and are powered by a robust, traditional power supply (toroidial transformer).
The results will be immediately apparent after a quick listen. Schertler Side – the perfect extension to the UNICO.
