perlisten R5m monitor

produced using the extensive technology used to create Perlisten's Signature Series, the Reference 5m monitor loudspeaker is essentially a standmount version of the R5t tower speaker, bringing the same driver layout and flexibility of the 5t to a smaller form factor.

about Perlisten loudspeakers,
R5m THX monitors,

The DPC array sits between two 6.5" drivers covering from 1.25kHz downwards. Both bass drivers are ported out at the rear of the cabinet.  These ports can be fully plugged, providing the performance of a sealed, acoustic suspension cabinet. This results in a more even frequency response across its range.

​

Used in sealed mode as a bass limited monitor, as you would most likely do in a multi-channel home theatre set up with a subwoofer, the R5m will cover 80Hz-20kHz within a very narrow +/-1.5dB deviation, and produce a peak output of 113.2dB.

​

All of this tech helps the R5m achieve a THX Ultra rating as an LCR set, but achieves THX Dominus when used as surrounds.

​

A more detailed spec sheet is available here.

As with all Perlisten loudspeakers, the R5m is centred around the DPC array (read more here), comprising of three 26mm soft domes in a vertical array. The centre dome is the HF unit, covering frequencies above 4.4kHz. The output from this unit is controlled on the horizontal plane to reduce dispersion to focus on the listening position, and reducing HF reflection from side walls. Vertically, its output is highly controlled, vastly reducing floor and ceiling reflections.

​

The flanking 26mm midrange domes cover between 1.25kHz and 4.4kHz, producing a more responsive midrange that is far less coloured by what would conventionally be a larger driver.

R5m with dedicated stands,

A luxuriously finished pair of stands are available to compliment the R5m monitor loudspeakers.
