Audio Physic Tempo 25Dec 16, 2010
Kari Nevalainen
For the 25th anniversary of the company, Audio Physic upgraded its Tempo to Tempo 25. As compared to the standard Tempo, the limited special edition Tempo 25 is loaded with a HHCM midrange driver and a HHCT II tweeter, both in use in the Audio Physic Cardeas flagship. Typical of Audio Physic, the Tempo 25 features an elegant sleek cabinet and woofers on both sides of the cabinet and operating in phase. The response is said to range from 32 Hz to 40 kHz with 89dB sensitivity on average.
I reviewed the Audio Physic Tempo Anniv. 25 together with or roughly at the same time with Sugden SP21 and Audiovector S3 Super, both relatively thin, 1m high floorstanding loudspeaker such as the new Tempo. And now that the reviews of the last two are out, it's time to publish the review of the Tempo Anniv. 25 too. But since this review is so overdue, I'll keep it short.
An essential part of my listening procedure is to go through the 23 tracks of my own test CD, each track chosen for the purpose of assessing a particular aspect of the sound by referencing it directly to music (how violins should or should not be reproduced, how non-harmonique overtones of a flute should or should not be reproduced, and so on). A vast majority of the tracks are classic music, and for a good reason so: classic music almost by definition is much more revelatory than non-classic material. In fact, many of the variables studied would not make sense with typical non-classic studio material.
I've used the test CD systematically for two three years now. And now comes the upshot of this review: among the three best performances, in terms of passing the test of my CD, was provided by Audio Physics Tempo 25th Anniversary. In this respect, the Tempo was better than the Sugden and better than the Audiovector, and very close being better than the mighty B&W 802 Diamond. The simple reason is that the sonic preferences of the Tempo 25 are such that they serve perfectly the lute recordings I ripped onto my test CD, cembalo recordings, different piano recordings, recordings of baroque music, recordings of early music, violin sonatas, cello sonatas and so forth. Two characteristics of the sound contribute to this particularly: one, the sound is sufficiently smooth (ie. void of spoiling colorations) over the frequency band; and second, the sound is extraordinaly spacious and immaterial. Put these two together, and many classic music is bound to sound outstanding, as it did with the Tempo Anniv. 25.
Track by track analysis tells about a "very spatious sound", "rich and transparent performance with all sound sources separated from each other", "beautiful, fast acoustic guitar", "great clarity and luminosity", "loads of air around the cello", "convincing staging of the instruments", "splendid violins", "revealed reverbrations of the paino", "perfects attacks" and so on. "Separation" is the key word here: it means the sort of spatial analysis and outlining that compliments classic music recordings. In this the Tempo 25 is quasi perfect.
But some people prefer that the instruments are more present, more forward. They want their speakers sound more like big headphones. If in addition they mainly listen to pop/rock etc., then the Tempo 25 may not be an ideal choice. There is no reason why pop&rock could not be listened with the Tempo 25 - it certainly is neutral enough for that purpose too - but I'd undesrtand if a fan of pop&rock would regard the sound a bit too tidy, too neat, too sophisticated and too laid-back for his music. No wonder then that Toto's pop recording sounded fine with the Tempo 25 but not as good-humoured, relaxed, and rhythmical as with the Sugden LS21 for example. It's always matter of preferences, and the line between acoustic classic music and pop/rock has turned out to particularly hard to cross. As far as I'm concerned, if classic music and music with similar emphasis were my favourites, I'd certainly be very pleased with what the Tempo 25 can do with it. One of the best speakers for classic music I know of. |

另外我倒是蛮喜欢这个样子的，关键是不占地方，感觉原来的脚钉不怎么好，在发烧鼠那里买了BDR的脚钉和脚垫感觉好多了，上一张图片吧。
