EdgeAudio 502D-LCR 2-Way Compact Satellite Speakers (3-Speakers)
Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
The EdgeAudio 502D compact loudspeakers with DiAural technology are remarkably smooth and lush two-way satellites speakers, capable of filling a room with rich, accurate sound. When used in conjunction with the EdgeAudio 502D-LR (a pair of 502Ds) and EdgeAudio SW-12/320 powered subwoofer, these speakers are capable of extremely satisfying home theater performance.
The 502Ds are built around a 5.25-inch woofer/midrange driver, which is engineered to handle a very wide frequency range, as well as a smooth, accurate, 1-inch tweeter to reproduce the high frequencies. The tweeters and woofers are made by Vifa, the esteemed Danish manufacturer whose products are usually found in high-end systems costing thousands more.
EdgeAudio is the first speaker maker to introduce the revolutionary DiAural technology in an affordable speaker. The DiAural circuit is a new, patented crossover technique that fosters proper communication and interaction between transducers (midrange drivers and tweeters). This new and innovative process results in fewer parts, less distortion, lower production costs, and renders the high-frequency and midrange transducers virtually incapable of burnout. By eliminating the distortion associated with traditional crossover technology, the revolutionary DiAural circuit in the 502D creates a sound so open and natural that you'll forget you're listening to speakers.
By incorporating the DiAural circuit to interconnect the drivers, EdgeAudio speakers reproduce music and movies with a coherent, open, and natural sound that brings the original source to life in your home. With a frequency response of 78 to 25,000 Hz (+/- 3dB) and a sensitivity of 88 dB, the EdgeAudio 502D series is capable of producing astoundingly accurate sound reproduction at volumes uncharacteristic of a speaker its size.
The drivers are housed in beautifully finished, ported cabinets made with a dual-composition design of 1-inch HDF (high-density fiberboard) interior and a solid wood exterior in a medium cherry finish. The walls of this cabinet virtually eliminate measurable wall resonance and are much more rigid and acoustically dead than the medium-density particleboard commonly used to build speaker cabinets. The 502D cabinets are further dampened by the inclusion of internal bracing and acoustic damping material inside the cabinet to eliminate high-frequency reflection. The result is a truly beautiful small speaker, capable of producing rich, full sound with an amazingly large sound stage.

Excellent for home theater and music.......2002-01-25
The center speaker is identical to the L+R speakers, but with a horizontally mounted nameplate on the grill, rubber feet mounted on the side and horizontally mounted speaker connections. The cabinets are beautiful and the speakers include 5-way gold plated binding posts.
I have these speakers mated with an Adire Audio Dharman powered subwoofer and my home theater sounds incredible. You definitely need a powered subwoofer with any small satelite style speaker since smaller speakers are incapable of producing lower bass ranges. Nonetheless, these incredible speakers are rated down to 60Hz, which is very good for a speaker of this size.
The speakers themselves are small, but put out incredible sound. You need a decent powered receiver for these speakers (such as on Onkyo TS-DX595 or a Denon 1802) since they are fairly low on the sensitivity scale.
Cheaphometheater has a nice review of these speakers.
The best review came from my wife who said "wow, I can't believe how good these sound" when listening to The Eagles DTS DVD.
Excellent for Home Theater!.......2001-02-19
The increase in detail while listening to music was jaw dropping. The high end, at first seemed a bit recessed, but as I listened to more CD's that I knew well, I realized that they were smoother than I was used to. All of the highs (stuff like cymbals) were beautifully detailed. I also noticed an increase in detail in acoustic instruments. The sound stage, with and without the center channel, is three dimensional and transparent.
The speaker enclosures are solid and assembled and finished with great craftmanship. They are beautiful pieces of furniture and sound as good as they look.
