Technical Audio Devices Laboratories, Inc. (TADL) today announced three additional color variations for the TAD-E2 Evolution Series floor-standing speaker system, which debuted in November 2021 to critical recognition. Complementing the original TAD-E2-WN finished in woodgrain satin, the three new models—TAD-E2-GW in glossy white, TAD-E2-K in piano black, and TAD-E2-SB in slate blue—offer audiophiles expanded aesthetic choices to suit diverse room interiors and listening environments.

The TAD-E2 continues TAD’s established tradition of single-point-source sound reproduction while taking the sound field and imaging performance to a new height. The expanded color choices enhances both visual integration into room decor and the overall listening experience.

Main Features

1) Elegantly and meticulously finished enclosure enhances the sophistication of room decor

In addition to the original TAD-E2-WN finished in woodgrain satin, the TAD-E2 is now available in glossy white (GW) with a brilliant, reflective finish; piano black (K) with a polished, refined surface; and slate blue (SB) that evokes a sense of tranquil depth. Our certified artisans apply precision spray coatings to the enclosures and grind them to achieve a dense, uniform finish. These meticulously crafted enclosures enhance interior aesthetics with elegance and sophistication. The dense coating also increases the enclosure’s structural rigidity and improves its vibration-damping characteristics. The enclosure’s rounded corners promote more natural soundwave propagation, yielding clear sound image localization and precise sound field reproduction.

2) Tweeter featuring a 2.5 cm beryllium diaphragm produces a clear and natural sound

The TAD-E2 incorporates a 2.5 cm tweeter with a beryllium diaphragm designed to deliver refined mid-to-high frequencies—a hallmark of TAD speaker performance. The diaphragm’s geometry is optimized via the HSDOM (Harmonized Synthetic Diaphragm Optimum Method) computer analysis, enabling a frequency response extending to 60 kHz. The waveguide, made of rigid cast aluminum to minimize resonance, precisely controls the tweeter’s directionality and ensures smooth sound dispersion across an extended frequency range. This configuration yields clear, natural sound reproduction.

3) Twin 15.5 cm woofers deliver a powerful bass with smooth directionality

Each woofer employs a 15.5 cm MACC (Multi-layered Aramid Composite Cone) diaphragm. This diaphragm is composed of an Aramid fabric cone on the front and a softwood pulp cone on the back that are formed separately before they are laminated together. This configuration produces a rich and clear bass as well as a coloration-free mid-to-low range sound with excellent linearity. In addition, the woofer cone has a shallowly curved structure to provide smooth directionality and has a reinforcement brace added to its neck that forms a delta bracing structure to reproduce a powerful bass.

4) Crossover network filter enables an excellent sound field and image localization

A 2.5-way network filter is employed to achieve an optimum phase rotation between the upper and bottom woofers at the crossover frequency between the tweeter and the woofers. This filter reduces phase interference around the crossover frequency between the twin woofers and the tweeter. The combination of speaker units with outstanding sound directionality and this network filter achieves a natural attenuation characteristic and directional pattern over the entire frequency range, which contributes to well-focused sound image localization and precise sound field reproduction.

5) Bidirectional ADP System produces a rich and natural Bass

The Bidirectional ADP (Aero-Dynamic Port) System positions a port on the bottom of the enclosure with its openings to the front and rear of the enclosure. The port has a horn-shaped interior that reduces port noise and achieves greater efficiency in driving the port to help reproduce clear and responsive sound in the mid-to-low frequency range. The symmetrical front-back layout of the port effectively offsets the physical force that vibrates the enclosure and, as a result, helps reproduce a powerful bass.

6) 10-mm-thick steel base plate adds greater stability

A 10-mm-thick base plate made of solid steel is attached to the bottom of the enclosure with resin horn plates inserted between them to suppress the base plate’s vibration. The three spikes attached to the base—two toward the front and one toward the rear—enable the firm placement of the speaker system on any Foor surface. The structural design that enables the three spikes to optimally support the position of the system’s center of gravity counterbalances the reaction caused by the powerful driving force of the twin woofers.

7) SILENT enclosure dampens unwanted resonance

The SILENT (Structurally Inert Laminated Enclosure Technology) enclosure incorporates the combination of MDF (medium-density fiberboard) panels with a high internal loss and rigid birch plywood braces to achieve greater strength and lower resonance. The rounded edge at the top of the baffle reduces the diffraction of the sound waves from the tweeter. In addition, the slanted baffle optimizes the position of the speaker system’s center of gravity and compensates the difference in distance between each speaker unit and the listener to enable a more precise sound field reproduction from this Foor-standing speaker system with twin woofers.
