What is it?

The AirPulse A200 powered speaker combines reference monitor sound quality and timeless retro styling. Guided by our design philosophy of perfection by simplicity and efficiency, considerable amount of research time was spent on designing and selecting each sub-components in the A200 including cabinet construction, speaker drivers, amplifier circuitry, and internal wiring to name a few. Not one minor detail was left unattended during the creation process on even the smallest component, which all in combination contribute to the A200’s impeccable performance.

The A200 is a feast to your eyes with its beautiful natural wood grain cabinet. It is most importantly, but not surprisingly, a feast to your ears. It accurately reproduces music with pure and extended high frequency, detailed and full mid range, and solid bass notes. The A200 is our latest gift to the most discriminating audiophiles and music lovers. It will bring you to a whole new level of listening experience, and you will fall in love with yourr favorite music all over again.

How does it work?

The A200 cabinet is built from 25mm rigid MDF with cherry wood veneer finished in satin lacquer. Strong internal bracing supports and stabilizes the drivers and eliminates cabinet resonance to minimum. To further reduce coloration, cabinet interior is fully lined with 36mm thick waved sound absorption material.

Each of our cabinets are lined with a 36mm of professional-grade acoustic foam. This sound absorption material reduces unwanted resonance that occurs within the speaker cabinet leaving you with only the sound you desire to hear.

Like many high quality audio equipment, the amplifier front panel on the A200 is made with 3mm thick blushed aluminum. The CNC machined solid aluminum knob Is not only elegant looking but also our own unique design with ergonomic and functionality in mind. Such fine details again reflect our pursuit of refinement and excellence.

The A200 horn loaded tweeter inherits the mechanism of the tweeter in our flagship 7001 near field monitor, but with an added phase correction device which greatly improves frequency response and increases sound dispersion. The A200 ribbon tweeter has a very low resistance of about 0.2 Ohm and it works with a transformer. The low resistance brings more current through the ribbon thus rise the SPL of high frequency, which leads to wide frequency response. We construct the A200 tweeter with the highest quality aluminum ribbon, strong Neodymium-Rare Earth magnets material coupled with an appropriate transformer to give it high sensitivity, superb transient response, extended frequency range and ultra high definition. The unique shape and size of the horn on the A200 tweeter was designed from precision calculation and simulation. Connecting the ribbon tweeter to a horn helps the sound generated by ribbon better coupled to the air. It further increased efficiency, power handling, frequency response and dispersion.

The amplifier section of the A200 Is composed of three pieces of TAS5754 Class D ampliflers. Two are connected in parallel bridge mode to drive the left and right woofers, and one is connected in bridge mode for the two tweeters. Not like normal Class D amplifier, these amplifiers feature closed-loop structure with even lower distortion. Its digital input accepts signal with up to 192KHz sample rate. Its Hybrid-Flow digital processing enrich the system processing capability even more.
