TL7 R transmission line kit

The TL7 R is a mid-size, tapered, single-fold transmission line speaker kit. Our TL series uses modified SDX7 woofers matched with our RA104.5 ribbon tweeter or the optional OW4 tweeter. The TL7 R places its drivers in an MTM configuration, mirror-imaged, with RA104.5 ribbon tweeters.

What to expect: the bass is very tight, not boomy, with in-room response below 24 Hz, and the midrange and higher frequencies are very well balanced. The crossover is 3rd order at 1700 Hz.
