A note from Pat:
This idea has been in the back of my
head for decades.
Finally, Next Gen technology has put the
keys in my hands so I commenced
prototyping. Predictably, the arrival of a
100lb+ 21.5” woofer drew howls of
derision from our group. The old man’s
finally lost it. Their mocking didn’t let
up until I dialed in a 20Hz low pass filter
and fired her up.
I’m pretty sure I heard those rarely
spoken words: “I was wrong”.
There are two distinct subjective
effects, one of which I can explain.
Venue ambience clears up nicely, and
those rare performances with
intentional ultra low bass take on full
dimension,especially certain rock
performances.
What I can’t explain is that, even on
non-bassy music the soundstage
clarifies and focus tightens. Vocals
become more ‘flesh and bone’ real. I
demonstrate the effect with a recording
of a children’s choir in a cathedral. You
can’t tell that the Pelican is working
but, when your turn it off, you really
want it back on.
We offer Pelican as a luxurious
supplement to our Dual Band Bass
system that is already competent to
20Hz, Nightingale. So, yeah, let’s call it
Tri Band Bass or perhaps Full Range
Plus.
I feel that this product underscores our
committment to pushing back the
frontier of what’s possible. You can’t
experience it and not want it.
Pelican can be configured front-firing as
shown or upward firing concealed as an
occasional table. We’ll show that soon.
Note: bottle and glass are for scale. Also
note the appropriately named whiskey:
Wee Beastie!
Be not surprised if you find Wee Beastie
in the crate with your Pelican.
