THEAUDIOTRAVELER: BACHE AND ALEXUS, SET GOES WIDE BAND
New-to-me manufacturer Bache Audio was showing off a new wide-band loudspeaker, which I’m pretty sure was the 001AB, an active-crossover model designed for use with SET amplifiers. The 001AB ($9,945/pair) is a powered speaker with a down-firing 8″ woofer powered by a 300 watt Class D amp. The wide-band driver is an 8″ Tang Band; the tweeter is a “Fostex Limited Edition FT-96A-EX2 that takes over at 10000 Hz. No high pass filter is used on the wide range 8” driver instead, it is allowed to roll off naturally.” Frequency response is cited as 22Hz-33kHz, 95dB, and a friendly 8Ω. A fully passive version, the 001PB ($8,945) is also available.
