Perlisten Audio, renowned for its high-end S and R Series, introduces the A-Series, a lineup that brings the brand’s signature engineering to a more accessible price point. Designed to deliver the essence of Perlisten’s acclaimed sound quality, the A-Series comprises four models: the A4t and A3t tower speakers, the A3m monitor, and the A2s surround speaker. Each model embodies Perlisten’s commitment to bespoke design, offering audiophiles and cinephiles a taste of reference-grade performance without compromise.

A4t: The Flagship of the A-Series

The A4t stands as the pinnacle of the A-Series, engineered for those who demand the best. Featuring three 215mm carbon fiber woofers in a bass reflex enclosure, the A4t delivers commanding low-end presence with best-in-class distortion levels. Paired with a 35mm Teteron composite dome tweeter and a custom waveguide, it ensures wide dispersion and pristine highs, making it ideal for larger rooms. Whether for immersive home cinema or high-fidelity stereo listening, the A4t excels, offering remarkable clarity, dynamic range, and bass response. Its versatility makes it a perfect match for other A-Series models in multi-channel setups.

Technical Highlights

  • Enclosure: 2.5-way bass reflex

  • Drivers: 35mm Teteron dome tweeter, three 215mm carbon fiber woofers

  • Sensitivity: 88.6dB / 2.83V / 1.0m

  • Frequency Response: 35Hz–27kHz (-6dB), 28Hz–27kHz (-10dB)

  • SPL Capability: 114.0dB peak @ 1m (100–20kHz)

  • Recommended Amplifier Power: 50–350W

  • Dimensions: 1285H x 280W x 450D mm (50.6 x 11.0 x 17.7 inches)

A3t: Entry-Level Tower with Uncompromising Performance

The A3t is Perlisten’s entry-level tower speaker, designed to deliver the brand’s signature sound in a more compact and budget-friendly package. Like its siblings, it features a 35mm Teteron dome tweeter with a custom waveguide and two 215mm carbon fiber woofers, ensuring excellent dispersion and balanced sound. The A3t shines in both stereo and multi-channel applications, offering a refined soundstage and robust bass for music lovers and home theater enthusiasts alike.

  • Drivers: 35mm Teteron dome tweeter, two 215mm carbon fiber woofers

  • Sensitivity: Not specified in provided data

  • Pricing: €2,495 each (Germany)

A3m: A Versatile Mini-Monitor

The A3m is a compact monitor speaker that punches well above its weight. Designed as a chameleon, it delivers exceptional 2-channel audio with sufficient bass extension for a standalone setup or as part of a 2.1 system. It also serves as an LCR (left, center, right) speaker or surround in home theater configurations. The A3m features the same 35mm Teteron tweeter and a single 215mm carbon fiber woofer, with the custom waveguide ensuring wide dispersion and precise imaging. Its flexibility makes it a standout for audiophiles and cinephiles seeking high performance in smaller spaces.

Technical Highlights

  • Enclosure: Not specified in provided data

  • Drivers: 35mm Teteron dome tweeter, one 215mm carbon fiber woofer

  • SPL Capability: 111dB above 100Hz

  • Pricing: €1,495 each (Germany)

A2s: Surround Sound Perfection

The A2s is tailored for surround and height channels in immersive audio setups, but its design ensures it’s equally capable in stereo applications. Featuring a 35mm Teteron dome tweeter and a 215mm carbon fiber woofer, the A2s benefits from Perlisten’s custom waveguide for controlled dispersion and seamless integration with other A-Series speakers. Its compact size and versatile performance make it an ideal choice for building reference-level home theater systems.

Technical Highlights

  • Enclosure: Not specified in provided data

  • Drivers: 35mm Teteron dome tweeter, one 215mm carbon fiber woofer

  • Pricing: €995 each (Germany)

Perlisten’s Design Philosophy

The A-Series reflects Perlisten’s ground-up approach to audio engineering. Every component, from the cabinet to the drivers, is custom-designed to meet stringent performance goals. Unlike the flagship S and R Series, which feature the Directivity Pattern Control (DPC) array, the A-Series utilizes a newly developed waveguide paired with the 35mm Teteron tweeter to achieve wide dispersion and low distortion. The 215mm carbon fiber woofers deliver robust bass, while the bass reflex design (in the A4t and A3t) enhances low-frequency performance. This meticulous engineering ensures the A-Series delivers Perlisten’s signature sound at a more accessible price point.

Perlisten-A-Series-Unveiled-2

The A-Series is designed for both audiophile-grade stereo listening and immersive multi-channel cinema setups. The A4t, with its three woofers, is ideal for larger rooms, delivering powerful bass and high SPLs (up to 114.0dB peak). The A3t and A3m cater to smaller spaces while maintaining clarity and dynamics, and the A2s completes the lineup as a versatile surround speaker. All models are optimized for flexibility, with Klippel-documented performance ensuring accuracy and reliability.

Pricing and Availability

The A-Series is exclusively available through authorized dealers in select regions. Pricing in Germany includes:

  • A4t: €3,495 each

  • A3t: €2,495 each

  • A3m: €1,495 each
