Loudspeaker Description  

 

 

    

The  Ribbon  Speaker  Performance 

Here at Stones Sound Studio we have engineered  Super High Definition Ribbon Speakers  
to reproduce all analogue and digital stereo programs including CD, HD-DVD,SACD analogue 
turntables and multi channel A/V home theatre sound systems 

The 260 260c & 360 Ribbon Speakers provide excellent depth of field, holographic 3D sound 
staging, fast tight bass midrange, crystal clear top end detail, extreme dynamic range with very 
low distortion on any type of program material from low to high volume levels 

The 260C centre channel speaker complements the 260 and 360 ribbon speakers for high-end  
Home Theatre A/V systems. I recommend complementing the ribbon speakers with the high 
quality R1000 12” subwoofer for very low frequency articulate bass for medium to large rooms 

The 260 and 360 ribbon speakers have been designed to become a sound reference for both 
home theatre and audio systems enabling listeners to hear finer instrument detail in analogue 
 and digital recordings 
The low distortion, wide bandwidth and large dynamic range provided by this Ribbon Speaker 
series enables listeners to appreciate the effects of any upgrades or changes made to their 
electronic equipment , cables ,components and program material providing many years of 
enjoyable listening.
