Harwood Acoustics Monitor LS 5/9 BBC Specification, Cherry Furniture (Special offer!)

Harwood Acoustics Monitor LS 5/9 BBC Specification, Cherry Furniture (Price per Pair!)

The Harwood LS 5/9 is a classic two-way bass reflex design that sees a 34 mm diameter soft dome tweeter matched to a 210mm diameter polypropylene-coned bass/midrange driver.
The tweeter is an Audax TWO34XO that’s made in France, to the front face of which Harwood fits what it calls a ‘dispersion loading protective plate’ in the form of an enormously strong non-ferrous perforated dome. The dome not only protects the 34mm soft dome from potential damage, but also modifies its high-frequency output and dispersion.
