Manufacturer's Description — Legacy Audio
The flagship Legacy loudspeaker, Valor, relies on graceful styling to conceal an extraordinary arsenal of technology. At nearly six feet in height and closing in on 300 pounds the Valor employs 2750 watts of internal power per side and a 64 bit processor to reproduce even the most dynamic performances with unprecedented detail.
The Valor System: Transcending the Limitations of the Listening Room
Legacy Audio’s Valor system combines decades of experience in sound field reconstruction with cutting-edge mathematical algorithms to provide the ultimate in immersive “feels like the artists are in the room” experience.
The Valor system as a whole is about acoustic steering, making sure that both side to side and vertical information in recordings arrive at your ear correctly. In a two stage process, a Room Correction algorithm cleans up the early unwanted reflections from your room’s floor, ceiling and walls. It then delivers audio as the engineers intended with all the spacial placements and sound stage recreated so you feel like you are in the room with the musicians.
THE FULLEST POSSIBLE IMMERSION FROM A HOME SPEAKER SYSTEM
With the Valor system, every detail of a performance is brought to life. Each performer seems to inhabit their own dimensional space. Timbre is rendered with exceptional richness—from the sonorous tones of a saxophone to the delicate swish of brushes on a snare drum. When the Omnio spacial enhancement on the Wavelet is engaged, the natural harmonics of vocals and stringed instruments are so lifelike that it transforms the stereo playback experience.
The Legacy Valor system’s dual 4″ AMT tweeters are mounted in a post-convergent array, a design that ensures a wider, more consistent soundstage. This precise configuration prevents tonal shifts, delivering uniform, detailed high frequencies even when listening off-axis.
The VALOR bass section includes 140 lbs of motor structure and 415 cubic inches of linear displacement driven by 1400W of ICEpower® technology.
