Description:

The new Image Series represents the final stage of a profound three-phase reconsideration of PSB Speakers that began with Synchrony, then moved to the Imagine Series. With the new Image Series, PSB Speakers again raises our traditional virtues to new heights of performance and sophistication, whether judged technically or by rigorous standards of subjective evaluation.

The new Image Series also display an esthetic dimension that pulls design cues from the Imagine series. “We focused on softer shapes for the cabinets rather than a rigid boxy look,” said Barton. “We maintained the Image Series’ somewhat rounded front and back, but changed the shape slightly to make the speakers a little more organic-looking.”

The Image B5 and B6 Monitors
The Images’ two monitors — the B5 and B6 — are ideal for multichannel deployments, 2.1 subwoofer/satellite systems, and main-channel use in smaller rooms or systems. They feature a single 5-1/4-inch and 6-1/2-inch speaker plus the one-inch tweeter in 12-1/2-inch and 14-inch high cabinets, respectively. They share the injection-molded, clay/ceramic-filled polypropylene designs of the Tower drivers, which also include dual magnets, polycarbonate baskets, and rubber surrounds. The monitors are rated up to 125 and 150 watts at 6 ohms, respectively.

The speakers also feature 40mm rear ports and, like the Towers, PSB’s sturdy multiway gold-plated binding posts that accept bare wire, lugs, banana plugs, open and closed spades, and enable bi-wiring and bi-amplification. Bi-wiring reduces interference by allowing the two channels to separate electronically when routed through an amplifier. Bi-amping allows the use of two amplifiers to separately power the woofer and the tweeter.
