Only the very best speaker components
were considered for Pioneer’s new
audio masterpiece: the EX Series. So
it’s no surprise that TAD (Technical Audio Devices) speaker
engineering is incorporated into these reference-class drivers.
They were crafted with extreme precision by TAD experts,
and adhere to their rigorous standards. TAD professional
studio monitoring loudspeakers are the fi rst choice in
recording studios across the globe. They have set a standard
for audio excellence and reliability, as recognized by many
world-famous performers and professional sound engineers.
The legacy began 30 years ago, and now TAD speakers can be
found wherever the highest sound quality is required: studio
monitors, concert hall speakers, cinema audio systems and
more.
To ensure that all sound — direct and
refl ected — arrives at the listening
position with identical timbre, the EX
Series employs TAD’s exclusive CST
(Coherent Source Transducer) driver
technology. The Beryllium tweeter is
mounted in the center of the magnesium
midrange driver, allowing the sound directivity to be
precisely controlled at all frequencies. The resulting aligned
sound delivery is extremely smooth and coherent. Unlike
conventional drivers, the problems with phase and off-axis
frequency response have been totally eradicated.
The tweeter diaphragm is composed of
Beryllium metal, which is extremely light
and rigid. This has resulted in an ultra-
strong tweeter diaphragm with perfectly
solid piston performance. It precisely
reproduces the audio signal; limited
distortion or resonance is added to the
audio performance. This pure and solid
performing diaphragm makes Beryllium
tweeters ideal for reproducing the high frequencies of DVD-
Audio and SACD, up to 100 kHz. These revolutionary audio
formats recreate sound as it actually exists in the real world,
with all its original artistic qualities intact.

The fi rst step in the painstaking development of Pioneer’s premium speaker series is the creation of an outstanding concentric tweeter/midrange speaker driver. Cutting-edge TAD technologies allow
the driver to reproduce exceptionally accurate audio. Every element has been crafted using only the highest-quality materials, ensuring that all frequencies of this wide-range driver are always precise
and laser-sharp, boasting extraordinary liveliness and delicacy. Add in the Neodymium magnet’s tremendous strength and the result is fl uent and consistent sound at a superior level of true-to-life
detail, ideal for DVD-Audio and SACD reproduction. Sit back, close your eyes and be swept up in a world of sonic perfection. Open your eyes and you’ll see that ideal sound is so much more than
just a dream — it can be your reality.
