Sold as a pair, complete with stands, grilles and two dedicated power supplies.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith Troubadour, Andrew Jones and brothers Jamie and Bill Cerreta bring together three ambitions: high sensitivity, expressive tone and generous bass. The first Jones \u0026amp; Cerreta loudspeaker combines a concentric field-coil midrange and tweeter with two large bass drivers, housed in a distinctive walnut-veneered cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eConcentric coherence meets field-coil drive\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tweeter sits at the centre of the midrange driver, allowing voices and their harmonics to radiate from a shared acoustic centre. This arrangement is designed to maintain precise imaging and a seamless musical presentation. Both drivers use field-coil motors, with their magnetic field generated by a dedicated electrical power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo 12-inch (30.5 cm) bass drivers, mounted at the front and rear of each loudspeaker, provide the foundation needed to convey the weight of instruments and rhythmic contrasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA natural partner for valve amplifiers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA stated sensitivity of 95 dB and nominal impedance of 6 ohms open up a range of amplifier choices, including valve amplifiers of modest power. The best match will depend on your room and preferred listening level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTroubadour requires an external hi-fi amplifier. The supplied power units energise only the field-coil motors. Two rear-panel switches allow the midrange and treble levels to be adjusted independently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo linear power supplies included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach loudspeaker has its own PS-1S27V-V1 power supply. Built around a toroidal transformer, it switches on when music is detected and enters standby after approximately 20 minutes of inactivity. Each unit comes with two four-pin XLR cables, measuring 1 and 3 metres, which can be used separately or joined for a total reach of 4 metres.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur first encounter with Troubadour\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the Spiritland presentation, we were struck by the speakers’ lively character, the body they gave to voices and their ability to create a full, precisely focused soundstage. The bass provides a solid foundation while preserving the music’s momentum. It was an encounter that left us keen to listen further and explore different amplifier pairings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.anamightysound.com\/blogs\/news\/jones-cerreta-troubadour-spiritland\"\u003eRead our listening impressions from Spiritland (in French)\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eDesign\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThree-way bass-reflex; concentric field-coil midrange and tweeter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eTweeter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.25-inch (3.2 cm) soft dome\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMidrange\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10-inch (25.4 cm) paper cone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBass\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTwo 12-inch (30.5 cm) drivers per loudspeaker\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eStated frequency range\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e34 Hz–30 kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eSensitivity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e95 dB \/ 2.83 V \/ 1 m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eNominal impedance\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 ohms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eCrossover frequencies\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120 Hz and 1 kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eStated maximum input power\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100 W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eConnections\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDual binding posts for bi-wiring\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSatin real walnut veneer, satin black baffle and brushed aluminium details\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIncluded equipment and availability\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pair includes two Troubadour loudspeakers, their stands and magnetic grilles, two linear power supplies and the cables connecting them to the field-coil motors.
