Royd Eden Standmount Speakers – Black Ash

Here we have a pair of the vintage Royd Eden’s, one of the most well-known loudspeakers Joe Akroyd made. Our pair are in fully working condition but are showing signs of their age, with a few blemishes. They will be suitably packaged and come with our regular three month warranty.
Royd Said….
The Eden is the latest and most exciting development of our range of compact loudspeakers. It is the logical step forward from our established A 7 and Coniston R models and as such represents the result of 7 years of continuous research and development. We believe the Eden offers the most satisfying musical performance for a loudspeaker of its size in today’s market. Like all our compact loudspeakers it is designed to be used close to a wall.
The Eden features Royd’s unique modified reflex bass loading to give you accurate bass reproduction and underpin the outstanding musical performance. Cabinet panel resonances have been eliminated by very heavy and rigid laminated construction.
The drive units developed for this loudspeaker are ideally matched to each other and to the cabinet. The tweeter is a 19 mm polyamide dome with vented centre magnet system and dual cavity, critically damped, rear loading to give you exceptional transparency and clarity. The coil is wound on an aluminium former and is cooled and damped by ferrofluid. The bass unit chassis is an aluminium die casting to provide the strength and rigidity essential for fast and accurate sound reproduction and is retained in the cabinet by eight screws reinforced by silicone rubber sealing. The chassis also provides the large free area behind the cone essential to minimise
reflection of sound waves and give you uncluttered, detailed reproduction. Because the drive units are so well matched, the crossover circuit is uncomplicated thus allowing the signal from your amplifier to be revealed unhindered. The speakers are designed for use on good quality stands (or wall brackets) with their backs close to a wall.
