Legacy Audio Classic HD

The new Classic HD is designed from the ground up to deliver amazing sound. Great as a front pair in home theater applications; exacting enough for the most critical audiophile. Highs are sweet and clear, vocals are natural and effortless-free of the thin, compressed nasality so common today. Mid-bass has punch, and bass is solid and well defined.

The Legacy folded ribbon tweeter is suspended between front and rear magnets, delivering four times the volume velocity of a flat diaphragm. This provides high efficiency, wide bandwidth and terrific power handling. The midrange is our own cast frame design, providing a larger radiating surface for reduced distortion and much higher output capability. The diaphragm is our silver/graphite weave, bonded to a stiff Rohacell backer. Tucked under the precisely shaped phase plug is a secondary neodymium magnet which concentrates the magnetic field in the voice coil gap. The result is an ultra-smooth response with incredible dynamics.

To keep up with the speed of the midrange and treble required two custom 8 bass drivers. We tooled a deep and rugged cast frame with an extra large mounting surface to allow long excursion and prevent mid-bass blurring. The cone mass was optimized to provide extended bass without overhang.

The versatile Classic HD cabinetry is as rich and detailed as its sound.
