INTRODUCING THE B600: A BOOKSHELF BEAUTY

When he founded PSB Loudspeakers in 1972, Paul Barton had a key guiding principle: he wanted to design speakers that are True to Nature. PSB’s new Synchrony Series is the clearest expression yet of that philosophy

The PSB Synchrony B600 Premium Bookshelf Speaker is a two-way bass-reflex design, featuring an all-new driver platform, new crossover and enclosure designs, and built-in IsoAcoustics isolators.

Like every PSB model ever made, the Synchrony B600 was voiced at the world-famous acoustics lab of the National Research Council in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. In addition to measuring loudspeaker performance in the NRC’s anechoic chamber, PSB used advanced tools such as scanning laser vibrometer, finite-element analysis, and electro-acoustic computer modelling during the Synchrony Series’ two-year development process. The engineering team led by Paul Barton correlated this data with extensive subjective-listening tests.

The Enclosure

The B600’s rigid MDF enclosure has extensive internal bracing to minimise resonances that can cause uneven response and blur transients. The front baffle is clad in a 5mm-thick solid aluminium plate, which suppresses “baffle talk” that can obscure fine detail.

Finishes and Options

The Synchrony B600 is available in two gorgeous furniture-grade finishes: Satin Walnut veneer and High Gloss Black. Other design touches enhance the B600’s visual appeal, including a tasteful Synchrony logo on the top edge of the front baffle, where it meets the top surface of the enclosure.

Natural Harmony

Considered individually, each of these advances offer meaningful benefits. Considered holistically, they’re transformative. With its new driver platform, enclosure design, and amplitude-perfect crossover, the B600 will deliver revelatory, immersive listening experiences with both movies and music. Quite simply, the new Synchrony B600 is the finest bookshelf loudspeaker PSB has ever offered.
