JPORTER STUDIOS Unveils the Innovative Waterloo Tower at AXPENO 2025
JPORTER STUDIOS has unveiled their latest innovation, the Waterloo Tower, at the AXPENO 2025 conference. Priced at $19,985, these orthogonal columns are crafted from 1.5-inch Baltic birch plywood, showcasing meticulous hand-polished, mirror-finish automotive lacquer that elevates their aesthetic to a striking level. The unique orthogonal design eliminates parallel surfaces, complemented by a specialized acoustic labyrinth that manages frequency dispersion up to 15,000 Hz.
Equipped with a tri-amplified system, the Waterloo Tower delivers 600 watts of power through N-Core modules, ensuring ultra-low distortion across all frequencies. The speaker features a beryllium tweeter starting at 1.1 kHz and dual opposed 9-inch mid/subwoofers, providing a full and balanced soundstage. An active crossover with 15 cascaded second-order filters (180 dB/octave) fine-tunes the audio output, while the active mass-loaded transmission line (MLTL) design enhances bass response, similar to setups found in PMC QB-1 monitors and Vandersteen Model 7 acoustics.
The construction of the Waterloo Tower emphasizes both durability and performance. Each unit is built with 32 layers of hardwood Baltic birch, ensuring structural integrity and optimal sound reproduction. The absence of parallel surfaces, combined with the acoustic labyrinth, minimizes unwanted resonances and coloration, offering audiophiles a pure and immersive listening experience.
Measuring 34 inches in height, 12 inches in width, and 16 inches in depth, and weighing 98 pounds, the Waterloo Tower is a substantial addition to any high-end audio setup. Production is handled with precision, with a standard lead time of 4-12 weeks and delivery via trusted courier partners, ensuring that each piece arrives in pristine condition.
For those seeking reference-level sound quality, the Wellington Active Tower (SKU: 001) stands out as a pinnacle of design and engineering. With a focus on delivering unparalleled audio fidelity, this flagship 2-way tower redefines what is possible in active speaker technology, making it a coveted choice for discerning audiophiles around the globe.
