NIMROD

NIMROD (by Visaton)

Let's go back to the 1970s in the UK to the creation of the legendary BBC monitors and the larger speaker models for home use. This was a time when listening to music still involved good old vinyl records and was a pleasure to be enjoyed. Visaton's design team's aim when producing the NIMROD, was to revive this feeling from the past. The visual appearance was therefore, clearly predefined. In terms of acoustics however, NIMROD uses state-of-the-art drivers such as the highly praised B 100 - 6 Ohm to achieve the best possible results. This is also the reason why the G 25 FFL - 8 Ohm fabric dome tweeter was chosen, equipped with a waveguide and meticulously adapted to the radiation characteristics of the B 100 - 6 Ohm. The off-centre positioning of the medium to high-frequency unit further optimises the radiation pattern and is unusual for loudspeakers of this type. The bass foundation with it the much appreciated mellow aspect of the British models is accounted for by the GF 200 - 2 x 4 Ohm woofer.

To compliment the loudspeaker kits, we offer an ever-expanding range of cabinets. Please contact us for more information.

The kit cabinets are supplied in three different options as shown below, all are fully CNC machined and rebated from 18mm  MDF.

Flat-pack option:

Cabinets supplied as a self-assembly flat-pack in either plain mdf or pre-veneered mdf of your choice. Both options are fully machined and rebated which means that the components all slot together very easily, just needing to be glued with the PVA wood adhesive that is provided. All the necessary holes and rebates for the drive units are pre-machined so you can assemble the cabinets without having any wood-work skills.

Factory built option (veneered only) :

Cabinets are supplied fully assembled eliminating the need for you to undertake any construction. 
The veneered cabinets are supplied assembled and lacquered to a furniture finish. We fit all the drive units, crossovers etc, so that your loudspeakers are supplied fully built and ready to plug and play.
