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.
The SP-BS22A-LR’s upward firing concentric speaker comprises a ½-inch soft-dome tweeter mounted in the center of a 4-inch woofer. Because of the upward firing speaker's two-way design, it produces a more spacious and detailed sound than speakers using a single full-range driver. The SP-BS22A-LR compact speakers are built from our SP-BS22-LR compact speakers. The same structured surface 4-inch woofer for bass and midrange and a 1-inch soft-dome tweeter follow the same efficiency as the SP-BS22-LR speakers, while blending with the top firing concentric driver for an affordable step into an immersive surround sound landscape. Whether you’re using the SP-BS22A-LR compact speaker in the front channels or as a rear surround speaker, it delivers all the audio action of Dolby Atmos at a price far more affordable than most speakers currently available.
The 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.
