Description: Up for sale is this nice set of vintage Advent Prodigy Tower speakers.Woofers were recently refoamed.Tested and performing beautifully for this set of premium audio speakers.The only know flaw is that during the winter when it is very dry, small cracks appear in the tops of the speakers.In the summer there gone!Not a deal breaker but noted for full disclosure. The Advent Prodigy Tower, a compact, floor-standing two-way speaker system, measures 28-1/2 inches tall, 10-1/2 inches wide, and 8-7/8 inches deep and weighs 25-1/4 pounds. Although its proportions probably justify the “Tower” name, it could be described more accurately as a minitower, for it will not dominate even the smallest room. The 8-inch, long-excursion woofer, which operates in a sealed enclosure, is located in the middle of the front panel, with the driver’s center about 16 inches from the floor. At 3,000 Hz there is a crossover to a 3/4-inch, soft-dome tweeter (cooled and damped by ferrofluid) located near the top of the panel. The nominal system impedance is 6 ohms, with a minimum of 4 ohms. The rated sensitivity is 89 dB sound-pressure level (SPL) at 1 meter with a 2.8-volt input, and the speaker is recommended for use with amplifiers capable of delivering up to 75 watts continuous or 300 watts peak. Advent gives the frequency response of the Prodigy Tower as 45 to 23,000 Hz ±3 dB, with a useful lower limit of 37 Hz (where its output is — 8 dB). The tweeter’s output variation (dispersion) over a 30-degree angle, either vertical or horizontal, is rated as ± 1 dB. The system’s harmonic distortion with a 1-watt input level is rated as less than 0.8 percent above 80 Hz. Judging from their measured performance, the Advent Prodigy Tower speakers are among the better systems available in their modest price range. Happily, they sounded every bit as good as they measured. From the start, their sound was smooth and uncolored, with no noticeable emphasis or deficiency in any portion of the audible spectrum. Further listening revealed that their bass reproduction was more extended and cleaner than in many, if not most, speakers we have heard that are comparable in size or price.
