Bg Radia Series R-800 Specifications

R-800
T H E R A D I A S E R I E S
The new Radia R-800
an architectural loudspeaker. Consistent with the BG legacy of a true line source, the
R-800 creates new benchmarks in sensitivity, output and accuracy with performance that
rivals the finest freestanding loudspeakers. Ideally suited for either lifelike home theater
or critical music listening, the R-800 is as elegant in appearance as it is awesome in sonic
fidelity. When paired with the new Radia R-400C Center Channel and/or R-88 In-Wall
Subwoofer, the result is an overall experience that must be heard to be believed.
At the heart of the R-800 is BG's all new Neo10 – a 10" x 5" Planar Ribbon Midrange Driver
based on the company's proprietary and patented technology. Significantly larger in size
than other BG ribbons, the Neo10 sets new standards for sensitivity, output, power handling
and accuracy. In fact, the driver's size allows it to move substantial amounts of air while
keeping diaphragm excursion at relatively low levels. Controlled excursion translates into
lower distortion and higher sensitivity while providing amazing clarity and linear response.
Completing the system is the R-800's impressive low frequency section, comprised of dual
8" long-throw woofers and a dedicated dual-channel amplifier (BGA-2500) incorporating
high performance technology. The woofers, located at the top and bottom of a machined
aluminum front baffle, feature a unique dual-gap motor structure that provides superior
linearity and low frequency accuracy over conventional designs. This results in significantly
lower distortion, wider dynamics and greatly improved performance. The combination
of the BGA-2500 Amplifier and twin woofers delivers low frequency performance not
previously achieved inside of a wall.
