Perlisten R4s Surround Speaker

The Perlisten R4s is the key to unlocking a truly immersive, 360-degree soundfield. This is not just a speaker; it is a specialist, meticulously engineered to create a sense of space and envelopment that conventional speakers simply cannot match. Sharing the same advanced driver technology as the rest of the R-Series, the R4s can be configured for either bipole or dipole operation, allowing you to tailor the surround effect perfectly for your room and preferences. THX Certified Ultra, the R4s is designed to complete a reference-level home cinema, wrapping you in a seamless, cohesive, and breathtakingly realistic audio experience.

The Art of Immersion

A truly great home cinema doesn't just put sound in front of you; it places you in the middle of the action. The Perlisten R4s is a master of this illusion. The magic lies in its selectable bipole/dipole functionality. In bipole mode, the drivers fire in-phase, creating a more direct and localized sound, ideal for smaller rooms or when you want precise placement of effects. In dipole mode, the drivers fire out-of-phase, creating a diffuse, enveloping soundfield that enhances the sense of space and makes the speakers themselves disappear. This is total control over your immersive experience.

Seamless Sonic Integration

The R4s is not an afterthought; it is an integral part of the R-Series ecosystem. It is painstakingly voiced and timbre-matched to its larger siblings, using the same advanced silk dome and HPF driver technologies. This shared DNA is critical, ensuring that as sound effects pan from front to back and all around you, the character of the sound remains perfectly consistent. The result is a seamless, uninterrupted bubble of sound that is utterly convincing and deeply immersive, with no distracting shifts in tone as audio moves around the room.

THX Certified Envelopment

Earning the THX Ultra certification for a surround speaker is a profound statement about its design. It confirms that the R4s has the dispersion characteristics, dynamic range, and low-distortion output required to create a convincing, professional-grade surround field. The certification guarantees that the R4s can handle the full impact of modern, lossless soundtracks, accurately reproducing everything from the subtle rustle of leaves behind you to the thunderous flyover of a fighter jet. It’s your assurance of a truly enveloping and faithful cinematic performance.
