Precision, detail and dynamics from the Perlisten Audio R5t speakers complete a compelling audiophile experience according to Soundstage Ultra’s Jonathan Gorse. He says: “The stunning vivacity of “In the Mood” cut through with lightning precision, and it came extremely close to feeling like a big band live in the room—I could almost smell the cigar smoke!”
“Perlisten Audio has done an excellent job of lowering the cost of entry to its range without losing many of the sonic elements that make its topflight S series so desirable. The R5t is an accurate and highly resolving loudspeaker that handles a wide range of musical styles with great ability. The precision of its instrumental placement and soundstage is a real highlight, while it has an extremely impressive ability to provide an open window into records for the price.”
“It’s clear that the DPC array is a major contributing factor to the R5t’s success. This, allied with its well-engineered and highly capable drive units, makes the Perlisten Audio R5t a convincing proposition. It’s a loudspeaker that is articulate, exciting, resolving, and enjoyable. Better still, it looks beautiful in the room—even hi-fi-loathing spouses will find it easy on the eye.”
