PMC Twenty5 21 Standmount Speakers – Oak

What we have here are a nicely crafted pair of “Twenty5 21” standmount speakers from British loudspeaker specialists PMC (Professional Monitor Company Limited) who were founded back in 1991. The company began by building studio monitors and very quickly established themselves in this field, being used by many recording artists all over the world. They also found similar success when they branched out to build domestic loudspeaker systems. These speakers are in good condition, come packaged in their original boxes with grilles, and our standard three month warranty.
PMC say….
The twenty5 series is the culmination of a quarter of a century of research, obsessive design and craft to produce the very finest loudspeakers for home listening. Every element in the design has been considered in order to create finely tuned, transparent speakers capable of revealing music’s subtlest shades and deeply emotional details.
Available in a variety of styles and finishes to suit the décor of any home, modern or traditional, the range hones and refines our established ATL concept with new drivers and Laminair, the result of recent research into the aerodynamics of the transmission line. With a natural, balanced tone and rich, enveloping bass at all levels from whisper-quiet upwards, the surprisingly svelte twenty5 series can provide you with an unequalled listening experience that redefines what you’ve come to expect from high-fidelity performance.
The twenty5.21 is proof that great things come in small packages. Don’t let its compact size fool you; this loudspeaker is nothing less than remarkable. Its complex ATL and Laminair vent mean that you get speed, weight, and transparency, with the greatest bass extension of any loudspeaker this size.
Whether on a shelf or its performance-enhancing stand, the twenty5.21 excels with all types of music. Its articulate mid-range, clear, open highs and profound bass mean it can fill rooms both medium and small with astonishing ease.

The source of PMC’s legendary natural, realistic sound is the Advanced Transmission Line (ATL) bass-loading technology, professionally proven all around the world.
ATL uses energy generated by the bass unit in a much more intelligent, efficient way than speaker designs based on ported or sealed boxes.
