Product Overview
Your new Parsifal Ovation is a mature-engineered high-
precision audio component. It is the cornerstone of a design
association between worldwide audio professionals and
acoustic engineers. It has been specifically designed to provide
an awe-inspiring level of musical satisfaction in any domestic
environment. The Parsifal brings a substantial improvement to
any audio system and gives its full potential when associated
with the finest ancillary equipment.
It is composed of a high-performance two-way reference
studio-monitor combined with an independent low-frequency
loudspeaker cabinet. Together, it forms a full-bandwidth floor-
standing reference loudspeaker.
Both cabinets are independent and isolated with suspended
isolation platforms. The low-frequency cabinet can be played
either forward or backward. See the Installation section of this
manual.
Highly innovative and proprietary custom-designed
components are used in a resonance-free cabinet construction.
The result is a high-resolution loudspeaker that gives a great
sense of liveliness, scale, and presence in the listening space.
Your Parsifal, without any doubt, will sound naturally even
throughout a seemingly unlimited frequency spectrum and
dynamic range. It will give you hours of enjoyable music
without fatigue.
