Slim and
elegant, The Abbot is compact floor standing model which, while occupying
little more space than a stand mounted miniature, is capable of producing a big
speaker sound.
Finished in
the same high quality veneers The Abbot utilises much of the technology
featured in The Prior. This includes time aligned drive units, a carefully
constructed cabinet containing comprehensive bracing and the new steel and
filled polyurethane elstomer base plate.
Substituting
the 8" doped fibre bass/mid range driver for a 6-1/2" model the Abbot
is smaller and less costly than The Prior. The Abbot offers the optimum performance for the music
lover who is limited for space, providing excellent sound quality in smaller
rooms and being very unexacting in its siting requirements.
A wide range
of amplification may be used to drive The Abbot. It will work happily with good
integrated models yet reward those who drive them with the very best pre-power
combinations.
as with all Royd loudspeakers The Abbot is
built to the highest standards for pride of ownership and quality sound
reproduction, not merely upon first listening, but for many years to come.
