T+A Pulsar S 130 Floorstanding Speakers (Pair)

Overview

The Pulsar S 130 was crafted not to resolve apparent contradictions, but to merge them: refined elegance meets audiophile-grade music reproduction in a compact, subtle form factor. Despite its modest size, its newly developed bass system delivers astonishing low-end performance, while the award-winning Symmetric Directivity mid-high frequency system—celebrated for its innovation by the German Federal Government – ensures pure sound without disruptive reflections.

With its sophisticated form and elegantly subdued finishes, the Pulsar speakers integrate effortlessly into any space, embodying T+A’s “Music First” ethos: sound reproduction that reflects the artist’s intent, presented in timeless elegance that complements rather than dominates your interior.

Design & Construction

As the third generation of T+A speakers, the Pulsar series introduces our design philosophy of “Classical Modernity.” Building on timeless elegance, our designers reinterpret classic elements in an excitingly modern way, uniting apparent contrasts between modernity and tradition. Their distinctively curved enclosures, inspired by Art Deco, lend the Pulsar speakers a sculptural grace that artfully conceals their true dimensions, giving them an imposing yet refined presence despite their compact form. The finishes, available in black or white, are achieved through a meticulous multi-layer process that guarantees both timeless beauty and lasting durability. Inside, the thoughtfully engineered bass reflex design mirrors this external perfection. Precisely tuned parameters harness the previously untapped rearward energy of the drivers, directing it to maximise bass pressure without compromising on control or precision.

AudiophileLinearity Tweeter

The newly developed tweeter in the AudiophileLinearity series features an exceptionally stiff yet lightweight magnesium dome, specially coated to eliminate resonances that typically occur with metal domes at higher frequencies. Its outstanding impulse response is free of any hardness or sharpness, and it can reproduce frequencies up to 40 kHz with impeccable clarity. A custom-designed Audiophile Diffuser ensures even sound dispersion across this frequency range, maintaining smooth, glistening highs without overpowering the sound foundation.

StarStabilizer Drivers

A unique design feature and a defining advantage in sound: our four StarStabilizer diaphragms In raw material refined with silicon powder, a central, star-shaped reinforcement is crafted, preventing modes and self-resonances before they even have a chance to form. This design ensures the membranes move in perfect pistonic harmony, transmitting only the pure incoming signal and preserving the music’s essence, untouched and unaltered.

In the bass region, two 150 mm high-performance woofers integrate rearward energy into the bass reflex system thanks to carefully matched resonance frequencies. With their robust magnets, large voice coils, and long-throw design, they deliver undistorted and highly responsive bass, even at the deepest frequencies. For our Symmetric Directivity System, the Pulsar’stwo 110 mm high-performance midrange drivers are equipped with extra-strong magnets for optimal control and power. Premium coil systems allow them to reproduce the entire vocal range without distortion or harshness, resulting in a richly natural and dynamic midrange.
