TÔMEI


Open Air Loudspeakers





LAST PAIR SOLD…

NO LONGER AVAILABLE - JULY 16, 2022



A new entry level model to replace the TOMEI will be announced in the first quarter of 2023.



The ultimate lifestyle loudspeaker
TOMEI is a self-powered, digitally optimized, virtually plug-n-play loudspeaker system. Plug-in your computer or wi-fi module and grab your smartphone to start. It's that simple!

Every TOMEI system comes with sophisticated digital crossovers, a DAC for each frequency band, and individual amplifiers to power each driver. In such a system, each part is perfectly matched to the next, unlike standard audio systems built from disparate components. You can HEAR and FEEL it when listening to an Open Air TOMEI loudspeaker system.

SATELLITE SPEAKERS

Almost spherical sound dispersion. 3-D imaging.
Accurate, highly resolving and transparent sound.
The Open Air structure applied to the high and mid frequency drivers, with the aid of an open baffle bass module, creates an almost boundless, walk-around soundstage.
These results are made possible by the seamless integration of drivers using a high definition digital signal processor (DSP).

PERFECTLY ALIGNED DRIVERS

The tweeter and mid-range drivers are phase and time aligned with an ultra accurate digital signal processor. This ensures precise positioning of the performers and creates an amazing sense of ambiance, sound stage depth and 3D imaging.
IDEAL ROOM ACOUSTICS

Open baffle loudspeakers project the sound forward and rearward.
This dual pole (dipole) projection has an uncanny ability to bring performers right there in the room with us. With Open Air, this effect is even more spectacular: you not only listen to a LIVE performance, you attend it!
UNIQUE OPEN AIR CHASSIS

The sturdy monitor chassis is made of CNC cut acrylic parts of different dimensions. These nine “ribs” ensure optimum damping and diffusion of the surround sound. Monitors are supported by genuine wood stands, sitting
on 2-inch thick sculpted blocks of acrylic with specially developed, damped aluminum spikes.

BASS UNIT

Deep and articulate.
Precise, thunderous bass.
The sleek open baffle bass unit is acoustically paired to the satellite speakers to reproduce a full 3-D sound reconstruction, where time delays and spatiality are faithfully reproduced in the listening room. Together they develop beautifully transparent and articulate low-frequency deep tones without distracting room resonances.

HARMONIOUS INTEGRATION

Seamless integration between the very fast, ultra-precise and transparent monitors and the open baffle bass module is done by the DSP. As unconventional as it may seem, we created a three module loudspeaker system that surpasses conventional two cabinet speakers in coherency.
SMALL SIZE

The use of a single bass module with a very small baffle greatly reduces the physical space needed in the listening room. The TÔMEI is the only open baffle loudspeaker system to play full range with such a modest size.
BIG SOUND

Driving the bass module we use a 280 watts RMS / 1000 watts peak second generation Class-D amplifier. With 1000 watts available at all times, bass plays with power and authority either enjoying a live concert or during an exciting cinema night!
TB-11 BASS UNIT
  • Open Baffle active bass unit
  • Genuine American walnut panel
  • 350 mm bass driver membrane diameter
  • 75 mm voice coil
  • Linear coil travel: 22 mm
  • Fs: 19 Hz
  • Amplifier: 1 x 280 watts class D amplifier
  • Dimensions: width 40 cm, depth 25 cm, height 50 cm
  • Colors: available in crystal ice, onyx black, vanilla ice or smoked grey acrylic

CONTROL UNIT

Ultra-precise DSP. Smooth frequency response. Perfect phase and time alignment.
The ACU-02 unit contains the digital crossovers, the amplifiers, the USB Audio Class 2 circuit and the D to A and A to D converters. The result is TÔMEI, a spatially coherent, transparent-to-source system, with "you are there" holographic presentation.

To reach that level of performance, we use a sophisticated Digital Signal Processor (DSP) to optimize the entire speaker’s amplitude, impulse, and phase response. No analog XO could manage this.

DIGITAL TO ANALOG

Five 32-bit/ 768kHz SOA AKM4495 DACs are used. Digital signals benefit from very low phase jitter clocks. Users can adjust the DACs output level independently and five types of filters.
ANALOG TO DIGITAL

The analog inputs are processed by the AKM
AK5397 A/D converter. Input sensitivity levels (4) are user adjustable. It lets you match the analog inputs to the sensitvity of the analog source item. Three different filter settings are also available.
USB AUDIO CLASS 2

Our control unit uses an XMOS USB Audio Class 2 input. It can process 32 bits, with up to 384 Khz HD audio signals.
NEW GENERATION
CLASS-D


TOMEI uses the latest generation Class-D amplifiers where digital glare, harsh sound and low level signal corruption are things of the past. They can compete with the best class A, AB or valve challengers on the market.
