Dolby Atmos Done Better
Most Dolby Atmos-compatible speakers use a single, full-range upward-firing driver to produce a ceiling-speaker effect. But speaker designer Andrew Jones knew a single driver could never deliver true high-fidelity sound. After the success achieved with concentric drivers in the Elite Home Theater System, Andrew Jones decided to bring the CST technology to these Pioneer speakers. The SP-BS22A-LR’s upward-firing driver is a concentric array with a tweeter inside a woofer. This design allows Andrew to highlight the details in action movie sequences as well as your favorite music tracks.
Built Like High-End SpeakersThe SP-BS22A-LR incorporates a true multi-element crossover to route high frequencies to the tweeter and lower frequencies to the woofer. This circuit allows the speakers to sound equally great in stereo, 5.1 surround sound and Dolby Atmos.
A speaker’s cabinet must be as sturdy to eliminate the occurrence of vibrations, which can change the sound of the music and movies you’re playing. This is why the SP-BS22A-LR use a curved cabinet, similar to the Pioneer SP-BS22-LR and SP-FS52-LR speakers. The curves stiffen the cabinet to reduce vibration and also reduce standing sound waves inside the cabinet, resulting in high-performance and exceptional sound quality.
