THE REFERENCE III
The Nucleus Reference III from Anthony Gallo Acoustics
The Nucleus Reference III was designed with the performance conscious audiophile in mind. The elegant new model builds on the success of our original round sound designs, the Nucleus Solo and Nucleus Reference. The Nucleus Reference III is a three-way floorstanding loudspeaker.
A three-year development process was required to complete the design -- much of the work was invested in critical listening tests conducted by Anthony Gallo and his team of Beta testers.
This loudspeaker is uniquely equipped to demonstrate the advantages of the leading high resolution formats, DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD. Very few high-end speakers, including the majority of $10K+ models can approach, much less equal, the Nucleus Reference III’s extended high frequency response, and none offer near omni directional (300 degree) dispersion. For the ultimate in neutrality and transparency, the Nucleus Reference III operates without a crossover across most of its bandwidth -- from 125 Hz to 50 kHz!
Design highlights:
The Nucleus Reference III features a revised version of our patented CDT™ tweeter, the CDT II™. A three-position tweeter level control accommodates a range of room acoustic variables.
A pair of 4-inch hyperbolic carbon fiber drivers -- each housed in its own ultra rigid, low diffraction 5-inch stainless steel sphere -- handle the critical midrange frequencies.
Low frequencies are reproduced by a long-throw, dual voice-coil 10-inch woofer – that magnificent driver is acoustically “loaded” into the Nucleus Reference III’s cast aluminum chassis.
The Nucleus Reference III can be used in stereo or home theater systems. The optional BAM (Bass Augmentation Module) 2 X 240-watt amplifier extends the Nucleus Reference III’s bass response down to a room shaking 22 Hz!
The Nucleus Reference III also features our proprietary and patented "Roundsound S2" technology. S2 de-couples the backwave of the driver from the air inside the enclosure. The benefits of S2 include – superior low frequency extension; improved transient response, and a substantial increase in efficiency.
Gold-plated all-metal binding posts insure secure speaker wire connections.
Each Nucleus Reference III undergoes extensive computer quality control testing.
The full-height perforated metal grill lends a more traditional appearance to the Nucleus Reference III.
