Check out the exciting new sound of the AR-14
If you thought you knew all there was to know about the sound of AR speakers, maybe you should pop over to your friendly neighborhood AR dealer and ask him to demonstrate the exciting AR-14. It's part of AR's new generation of acoustic suspension speakers that sets a new standard of accuracy to whet other manufacturers' aspirations.
The AR-14 stands apart from the competition in three particulars you should know about. First, its new 10-inch woofer is mounted in the same size cabinet occupied by our larger, more expensive systems, so you get full accurate bass response right down to the lowest frequencies available in recorded music.
Second, its new 1-inch soft dome tweeter extends high frequency response flat to well beyond the limit of human hearing at extremely low distortion to give you accurate reproduction of those essential overtones you've been missing from speakers with ordinary tweeters.
Third, AR has perfected an optimally damped second-order LCR crossover which matches the woofer and tweeter characteristics so precisely that a midrange driver isn't needed. This gives you professionally accepted AR accuracy and full frequency response at the substantially reduced cost of a two-way system. It's easy to get interested in a truly accurate loudspeaker for $160; we suggest you visit your AR dealer for a demonstration of the new AR-14, using music with which you are intimately familiar. While you're there, ask to hear the same music played through any other speakers in the showroom. We think you'll find the accurate sound of the AR-14 the one you want to live with.
