1 Introduction
The Symbol MultiChannel System reflects our passion for creating loudspeakers that 
capture the imagination, and accurately reproduce the three-dimensional space of 
modern film soundtracks as well as discreet multi-channel musical recordings. 
 
Drawing upon our many years of experience in loudspeaker research, design, listening, 
and manufacturing, and combining the most powerful tools of modern technology with 
master craftsmanship of the finest artisans, we have created an unsurpassed holistic 
system. 
 
The Symbol Center Channel integrates with the Symbol front channels to form a smooth 
and uniform image. The Center Channel’s vertical and horizontal dispersion eliminates 
many of the artifacts of a narrow polar response system that beams information from the 
loudspeakers as the program material pans through the various channels. The Symbol 
Subwoofer is engineered from the ground up to provide prodigious amounts of extremely 
fast articulate low frequency output (full power to 20 Hz). The amplifier is designed by 
Avalon MultiChannel Systems with power adequate for the task. This is the first multi-
channel system designed holistically to create space with a phase coherent blending of 
the satellites, and is ready for improvements in digital storage as we approach a purely 
discrete six or more channel system.
