PSB G-Design

For thirty-five years, PSB has been praised for delivering the best value

in high-performance loudspeakers. Speakers that are more musically

transparent. More dynamically honest. More true to nature – neither

adding nor taking away from any sound. And more technically rigorous,

and more carefully designed, built, and finished. Continuing this

tradition, PSB G-Design models,

GT1

,

GB1

and

GC1

share more than

just a name and family resemblance. Each one represents a ground up

engineering effort by Paul Barton and his team, and continues a thirty-

five year legacy that has earned PSB the praise of critics, audiophiles,

and music and film lovers from around the world.

PSB G-Design consists of the

2-1/2

GT1

Tower, the

2

GB1

Monitor and the

2

GC1

Center Channel. All three models

are comprised of heavily braced solid MDF cabinets. These rigid,

resonance-free enclosures are finished in an elegant, hand-rubbed,

furniture-grade seamless high gloss. The G-Design

GT1, GB1

and

GC1

share a highly evolved

1

” aluminum-dome tweeter – like each and

every PSB driver, a completely proprietary design – with a unique

combination of performance factors. Exceptional extension yields

outstanding accurate treble, tremendous dynamic linearity delivers

the clarity of details both loud and soft for which PSB speakers are

Platinum Series woofers that employ high quality

woven fi berglass cones have been used on all three

G-Design models.

PSB G-Design uses a

1

” aluminum dome tweeter

with neodynium magnet. An integrated heatsink

assures stable output levels.

For home theater and serious music listening alike,

demand high impact, accurate ultra-deep bass from

powered subwoofers like the SubSeries 6i (left) and

SubSeries 8.

famous, and unusually even, broad dispersion promotes superbly true-

to-life “soundstaging.”

The

GT1

and

GB1

feature

6.5

” woofers (two on the

GT1

and one on the

GB1

) while the

GC1

uses two

5.25

” woofers. For use in home theater

applications all models have been video shielded. The woven fiberglass

woofers are engineered for dynamic range, controlled expression, and

exceptionally linear high-output reproduction. Together, these superb

transducers enable the G-Design models’ smooth, accurate reproduction

and remarkable dynamic potential. Combining this with our never ending

quality control – we compare each speaker to its reference standard, a

much over-looked but crucial factor – to yield consistently matched

speakers. This, in turn, produces the PSB G-Designs’ wonderfully

natural, stable and precise spatial qualities.

The same characteristics that make the G-Design

GT1

and

GB1

excellent

stereo speakers make them superb anchors for a multi-channel home-

theater system: exceptionally accurate tonality, tremendous dynamic

range, superb clarity and detail. But truly excellent multi-channel sound

demands companion speakers of equal quality, meticulously “timbre-

matched” to preserve the consistent tonality and dimensionality so

critical to convincing surround-sound reproduction. This is achieved

with the G-Design

GC1

center-channel speaker. The

GC1

delivers the

high efficiency and wide dynamic range required by a center channel in

a home-theater system. Its complex drivers-cabinet-crossover system is

extensively fine-tuned for accurate timbral-matching to the

GT1

and

GB1

.

Less obvious but just as important, Barton was equally careful to ensure

complementary dispersion and spatial response for seamless “front-

stage” imaging. Experience your favorite music and film soundtracks in

all their glory on the PSB G-Design models to understand how PSB has

taken performance to new heights of excellence.
