Our take on the PSB Image S5

by Kristen Schaub

Enjoy enveloping sound from bipole surround speakers

It's hard to beat the seamless, wraparound experience created by bipole surround speakers — especially when those speakers come from PSB. The Image S5s offer rich, dynamic sound with plenty of impact for a thrilling, theater-like experience in your home. Each speaker houses two sets of drivers, arranged at an angle to one another. When you place these speakers behind your listening position, the two sets of drivers help produce a wide rear soundstage that puts you in the middle of the action.

Advanced drivers for clean, well-balanced sound

K2 Power crossover network

The tweeter uses a powerful neodymium magnet for crystal-clear highs.

The Image line borrows driver technologies from PSB's higher-end speaker lines, to give you excellent performance at a budget-friendly price. Each S5 features two 1" titanium dome tweeters that effortlessly dish out smooth, uncolored highs. Two long-excursion, high-output 5-1/4" woofers use the same proprietary ceramic-filled polypropylene cone as the Imagine line. The stiff, lightweight material helps them deliver midrange that's clean and balanced. You'll be amazed at the realism and immediacy of the sounds of bullets zigging past you or rain drops all around you.


Sleek, thoughtful cabinet design

All Image speakers have heavy internal bracing and 1-1/8" thick MDF cabinets to ensure impressively solid, acoustically inert enclosures. The cabinets have a traditional look, but with slightly curved tops and fronts to soften it. This family of speakers also features attractive vinyl finishes, allowing the Image speakers to easily integrate into just about any décor.

    Driver Technology

    Surround Design: A Image S5 speaker is two 2-way speakers built into one triangular shaped cabinet; each having its own woofer, tweeter, and crossover. The drivers are mounted on baffles facing in different directions, approximately 120° apart. The two speaker sections are wired in phase, as a bipole speaker to flood the area with surround sound.

    Cone Design: The woofer cones are clay/ceramic filled polypropylene to optimize the combination of stiffness, internal damping, and low mass. The magnetically neutral polycarbonate baskets contribute additional stiffness, and the bullet-shaped phase-plugs enhance linearity at higher frequencies.

    Tweeter: The 1" titanium dome, Ferrofluid cooled tweeters use a neodymium magnet structure to help extend the frequency response at both ends for effortless, airy top octaves and smooth, uncolored response.

    Crossover Network: The crossovers are 2-way acoustical fourth order Linkwitz-Riley type with a 24 dB/octave slope. The tweeters and woofers are crossed over at 1,800 Hz.

    Connections

    Binding Posts: The 5-way binding post input terminals are located on the lower rear of the speaker cabinet. The binding posts will accept spade connectors, single or dual banana plugs, pin connectors, and bare wire up to 8 gauge.

    Mounting Options

    Mounting: The Image S5 can be wall mounted using the included brackets. The bracket adds approximately 3/16" to the depth of the speaker.
