OVERVIEW

PRECISION SERIES.
ENGINEERED FOR YOU.

The entry point into the Precision Series. The P1.0 combines a single Tactic II drive unit with the Leonardo Tweeter, within the contemporary Precision Series enclosure in a standmount monitor form.

The P1.0 then is the ultimate combination of performance and value – a loudspeaker that should be first on the shortlist for those wanting to access trickle-down technology from Wilson Benesch’s award-winning Geometry Series in a high-value design.

DESIGN

TACTIC 2.0 DRIVE UNIT

Wilson Benesch created the first iteration of its dynamic drive unit in 2002. Since then the Tactic Drive unit has evolved through three generations to arrive in its current form. Wilson Benesch was the first company in the world to develop a consumer product that used Isotactic Polypropylene. It’s unique balance of high specific stiffness with exceptional damping afford the opportunity to create a reductive minimal crossover design.

LEONARDO TWEETER

Wilson Benesch’s new high frequency transducer technology, the Leonardo Tweeter. Developed directly through an iterative design approach that gave birth to the Fibonacci and Semisphere Tweeters before it. As with the Fibonacci Tweeter found in Wilson Benesch’s reference loudspeaker Eminence, the Leonardo Tweeter features a geometrically optimised and decoupled polymer-carbon fibre faceplate. This entirely proprietary component is manufactured in-house using State- of-the-Art 3D printing technology. The faceplate acts as a waveguide, delivering optimal dispersion and phase characteristics for the Leonardo Tweeter.

HYBRIDISED ENCLOSURE​

Central to the Precision Series design is the philosophy that multiple materials should be used in enclosure design to create hybridised structures. The Precision Series enclosure represents an engineering solution to a product design problem, that of controlling structural born resonant energy within a loudspeaker enclosure to reduce the Q-factor of the enclosure as much as possible. The distinct Precision Series top and bottom ‘caps’, whilst elegant forms, are in fact critical components in the pursuit of this goal. Precision CNC-machined from solid billets of aluminium, the caps lock in position the front and rear aluminium baffles with the wood side panels. The caps are then tied along the vertical axis of the Precision Series enclosure using 13mm steel bars that brace the enclosure and compress the whole structure to ensure it is as sonically inert and stiff as possible. Additionally, along the horizontal axis tubular structures lock into pre-routed grooves to provide both increased stiffness and damping of the Precision Series enclosure in this axis.

INTEGRATED STAND

Just as the Precision Series CNC machined alloy top and bottom caps form a crucial part of the loudspeaker enclosure, in the standmounted P1.0 loudspeaker Wilson Benesch integrate the stand into the enclosure design. Unlike many standmount loudspeaker designs, the P1.0 enclosure is not simply sitting on top of the stand, in fact the stand is tied directly into the alumnium base plate of the P1.0 enclosure at one end and tied then into the stand foot at the other. The 13mm Steel ties that run the length of the stand, hidden inside the two vertical uprights, bring together the mass sitting at the top of the stand and tie it to the mass in the foot to add stiffness across the whole enclosure and stand.
