Center Channel
-- -- -- --- -- -- -- --- -- -- --- -- -- -- --- -- -- -- --- -- -- --
What makes this vertical array center channel so special? Its
talent for producing dialogue that is crisp, clear and superbly
intelligible. No more midrange drop out. No more muddled
sound. This all happens using a 4” midrange driver that
unburdens the woofers of frequencies they have no business
worrying about. Ultimately, the vocals and dialogue coming
out of this vertical array center channel are so authentic and
present you may find yourself talking back.
“Aperion’s beefy center-channel speaker sounds great from
any angle.”
Steve Guttenberg, CNET.com, August 2004

FEATURES
Vertical Array Design: With a vertical array center channel, off-axis performance is optimized for crisp, unspoiled dialogue and midrange drop out is officially
a thing of the past.
1” Audiophile-Grade Silk-Dome Tweeter: A silk diaphragm means that this speaker sings. Silk gives remarkable detail, but also plays smooth and natural.
Our audiophile-grade 1-inch tweeter features Ferro fluid cooling and a high quality heat sink, which means less distortion. Along with magnetic shielding,
and a linear response faceplate, this tweeter is the high point of the speaker. Literally.
Custom PVA- Damped 5.25” Midrange: Our custom 5.25” midrange-woofer is the heart and soul of our award-winning 522D-LR bookshelf loudspeaker, and
is featured here in our 522D-VAC. The cone is made of paper that’s been treated with Poly Vinyl Acetate (PVA). Paper gives a super fast and natural response,
while the PVA helps make it more rigid and longer-lasting. The magnetically shielded driver sports a solid polymer frame, heavy rubber surround, super flat
frequency response, and a deep commitment to keep you amazed for years to come.
5.25’’ Passive-Midrange Woofer: The 522-D VAC center channel speaker employs one passive driver, or radiator. This radiator exploits energy from the
rear of the active driver that would otherwise be wasted, to greatly improve the bass response of the whole speaker. In addition, because there’s only one
active driver, lobing is greatly reduced, which translates into a much broader sonic sweet spot. This design also allows for a smaller, easier-to-place center
channel speaker.
4” Midrange: Our 4” polypropylene midrange takes dialogue to new exacting heights. This high-quality, magnetically shielded midrange optimizes the performance of critical midrange frequencies from 900Hz to 2500Hz. It responds to transient demands, maintains killer dispersion and sports a well damped
moving system to control spurious resonances. What’s more, it’s robust enough to handle the great air-moving demands of lower midrange frequencies.
Anti-Resonant Cabinet: Each 522D-VAC speaker is made of rock solid 1” thick High Density Fiberboard (HDF) to eliminate unwanted resonances within
the cabinet. Each speaker is finished in either real cherry wood or high gloss black lacquered finish. This first-rate cabinetry unites the acoustic-damping
qualities of only the most expensive loudspeakers with a furniture-grade finish so handsome your coffee table will be jealous.
Magnetically Shielded: All drivers in the 522D-VAC are magnetically shielded for placement on or near your video monitor.
DiAural Crossover Technology: Simple and elegant, the revolutionary DiAural circuit in the 522D-LR creates a sound so open and natural you’ll forget it’s
coming from speakers.
5-Way Gold-Plated Binding Posts: Each 522D-VAC speaker comes standard with audiophile quality gold-plated five-way binding posts, giving you great flexibility in connecting your speaker wires. They will anxiously accept banana plugs (4mm), spades (3/8”), pins or bare wire.
Acoustically Transparent Grille: An acoustically transparent grille is included with each speaker. We designed a grille that looks great and protects the precious drivers from inquisitive kids and pets. And since the grille cloth is sonically invisible, your speakers’ performance won’t be compromised.
Wall & Ceiling Mounting: All 522D-VAC speakers come with dual 1⁄4” threaded inserts on the back for ceiling or wall mounting. Industry standard spacing on
these inserts means they’ll work with mounts by OmniMount, B-Tech, or other brands. Best of all, there is no need to drills holes. Mounting is invisible.
30-Day No Risk Audition + Free Shipping = Absolutely Nothing To Lose: We are so joyfully confident in the sound, looks and price of our 522D-VAC
speakers, that if you are not wholeheartedly satisfied, just return the speakers within 30 days. We’ll refund your money in full, pay the return shipping fee,
and all with a no-sweat smile.
