At the Munich High End show, May 19th – 22nd, Grimm Audio introduces a new variant of the LS1 loudspeaker system: Nano legs. With Nano legs an LS1 can be placed on top of a side table or dresser. This is an advantage in for instance small rooms where every square meter counts – the acoustic properties of the LS1 make it function great in large rooms as well as small rooms.
The eye catcher of the LS1 Nano legs edition is the ‘Acoustic Mat’ that sits on top of the foot plate. When placing a loudspeaker on a hard surface such as a side table, reflections occur that color the sound. The Acoustic Mat absorbs the reflection and keeps the sound clean from this discoloration. The Acoustic Mat comes in two sizes: standard and large. The picture shows the standard size.
The LS1 with Nano legs is a development based upon a ‘special edition’ LS1 we designed for the Concertgebouw Amsterdam studio. Monitor speakers in this small control room need to be placed on top of a bass trap and the ‘Nano legs’ version facilitated that.
In Munich an LS1be Nano Legs version will be on stage as the center speaker in a 5 channel surround system. It demonstrates the new MU1 surround playback capabilities. And with it we celebrate 10 years of LS1…!
The Nano legs version of the LS1 can be ordered for the same price as the normal height and studio height versions. Please visit our demo room E216, Atrium 4.2 at High End Munich for a demonstration.
