Airpulse Releases Compact Active Speaker Model "A60" with Innovative Features
By HiFi Editorial14 February 2026
Key Highlights
The AIRPULSE A60 active speaker features a planar diaphragm tweeter driven by a neodymium magnet, offering exceptional transient response and low phase distortion.
It incorporates a 3.5-inch aluminum-alloy cone woofer with a large ferrite magnet and a 30mm voice coil, ensuring high-speed response.
Powered by Texas Instruments TAS5754 Class-D amplifiers, the A60 delivers 30W x 2 for woofers and 10W x 2 for tweeters.
The AIRPULSE A60 exemplifies the meticulous engineering typical of designs spearheaded by Phil Jones, renowned for his work on professional-grade monitors like the Acoustic Energy AE-1. This heritage is evident in the planar ribbon tweeter, which employs a unique printed voice coil directly on the diaphragm. This design eliminates phase distortion often associated with dome tweeters, resulting in a precise and dynamic high-frequency response. Coupled with the high-speed aluminum-alloy cone woofer, the A60 demonstrates a commitment to coherence across the frequency spectrum—an essential trait for nearfield listening environments.
