Acoustic Design Philosophy
The Ashdown Acoustic Radiator amplifiers have been designed with three key factors in mind:
quality of sound, portability and style.
Premium quality PA speakers have been used, which feature 150W power handling and dual
concentric tweeters for optimum treble dispersion. One of these speakers is featured in the
Acoustic Radiator 1 driven by a 100 Watt RMS amplifier.The Acoustic Radiator 2 incorporates
two of these speakers for a huge, crystal clear sound driven by a 150 Watt RMS amplifier.
The exact sound and style of your Acoustic Radiator can be tailored to your personal choice
through the provision of Real Wood or Plywood cabinets in a selection of finishes - choose
between a cherry finish or a vinyl covering in black or book-bound leather style.These cabinets
are constructed in an easy to carry design with a hand-stitched removable leather handle.The
amplifiers are also available in metal Resonator cabinets.
The absence of any cooling fans enables the unit to run as silently as possible.
Everything possible has been done to make the Acoustic Radiators reliable, top of the range,
minimum service, high quality, long lasting, powerful amplifiers.
We know you will appreciate the effort that has been put into the design and manufacture of
these units and you will be rewarded in your choice of bass amplifier by long life and reliability.
