The genesis of the Tidal AP1 was rooted in the complexities and limitations of the Royale, which, while revolutionary in its execution and performance, proved challenging to manufacture and distribute on a larger scale. TIDAL sought to create a masterpiece that embodies the same commitment to quality without compromising accessibility. The AP1, with its stunning design and advanced engineering, fulfills that vision.

Fully powered loudspeaker concept

At the heart of the AP1’s design is a fully powered loudspeaker concept, boasting unique speaker drivers and bespoke power amplification. This innovative system is engineered for a seamless plug-and-play experience that promises unparalleled sound quality. The AP1 features an impressive array of audio components, including four omni-polar radiating long-stroke subwoofers expertly calibrated to deliver deep frequencies with remarkable accuracy. These subwoofers work in tandem with four high-efficiency front drivers—two long-excursion woofers, a midrange driver, and a diamond tweeter—each meticulously crafted for its specific role in the sonic landscape.

Tiralit cabinet

The AP1’s cabinet is a marvel of modern engineering, constructed from TIDAL’s proprietary TIRALIT™ material. This multi-chamber design not only enhances structural integrity but also minimizes any distortion, ensuring that every note is reproduced with pristine clarity. Each driver is isolated in its own hermetically sealed chamber, mounted on a constraint-layer sandwich of aluminum, stainless steel, and TIRALIT™, further elevating the speaker’s performance.

Hybrid amplification technology

TIDAL’s innovative hybrid amplification technology sets the AP1 apart from conventional active speaker designs. By integrating different amplification technologies for various frequency ranges, the AP1 upholds TIDAL’s commitment to analog purity—eliminating digital signal processing (DSP) and maintaining a direct, uncompromised signal path. This meticulous approach results in an audio experience that closely approximates a single, invisible point source, delivering dynamic sound with remarkable headroom.

Despite its sophisticated engineering, the AP1 is designed for ease of use, making it adaptable to various room sizes and placements. Users can easily adjust the bass response to suit their environment, ensuring optimal performance whether the speakers are positioned close to a wall or in a more open space.

TIDAL has also addressed the curiosity surrounding the “AP” in AP1, stating that it represents “Amplified Performance,” underscoring the speaker’s groundbreaking capabilities. The AP1 is positioned as a statement piece in the world of high-fidelity audio, blending luxury design with state-of-the-art technology.

205 Kg per speaker

With dimensions of 158 cm in height and a weight of 205 kg per speaker, the AP1 is as imposing as it is beautiful, available in a stunning original TIDAL piano lacquer finish in midnight black, or polished veneers with transparent lacquer. Custom metal finishes are also available upon request, allowing audiophiles to tailor the speaker to their aesthetic preferences.

As TIDAL continues to push the boundaries of audio performance, the AP1 stands as a testament to the brand’s unwavering dedication to excellence. With its innovative features and stunning design, the TIDAL AP1 is set to redefine what is possible in the realm of loudspeakers, inviting music lovers everywhere to experience sound like never before.
