About the Acoustics Eclipse

The Avalon Acoustics Eclipse is a high-end, two-way, sealed-box floor-standing loudspeaker system. It incorporates a 1-inch titanium dome tweeter and an 8.5-inch Kevlar/Nomex honeycomb cone woofer, delivering a frequency response from approximately 35Hz to 24kHz. The speaker is designed with a Q-factor of 0.5 at 42Hz to ensure controlled bass performance and minimize low-frequency energy storage. Its cabinet features a rigid, heavily braced hardwood construction with a thick front baffle to reduce vibration and standing waves, enhancing spatial clarity. The crossover network is bi-wired and housed in a shielded chamber to prevent interference. The Eclipse is noted for its wide, deep, and detailed soundstage with low coloration and excellent imaging, providing a natural and balanced tonal reproduction. It is recommended to be paired with amplifiers from 30 to 300 watts and has an impedance of 6 ohms with a sensitivity of 86 dB. Available finishes include maple, walnut, cherry, and a North American hardwood veneer. Dimensions are approximately 990 x 279 x 381 mm, and it weighs about 43 to 48 kg. The speaker is praised for its musicality, adaptability to various music genres, and superb craftsmanship.
