Why you will love it

Tweeter and woofer

The B50 pairs a 1-inch (25mm) titanium dome tweeter with ferrofluid and a neodymium magnet with a 5.25-inch (133mm) woven carbon fibre woofer with a rubber surround. The crossover is at 2,200Hz (LR4).

PSB says the 2-way bass reflex design with a rear-facing slot port delivers bass well beyond what the cabinet size suggests.

Placement flexibility

PSB says the components are built for placement flexibility, wider bandwidth, higher output, efficiency, power handling and low distortion. It recommends 20 to 150 watts of amplifier power and lists 150 watts of program power.

Sensitivity is 85dB in an anechoic chamber and 87dB in a listening room. Impedance is 8 ohms nominal with a 4 ohm minimum.

Design and connections

PSB describes a slim, compact cabinet in Satin Black or Satin White, with aluminium trim and chamfered edges that match the PWM Series.

There are dual 5-way gold-plated binding posts with gold-plated jumpers, and the speaker is bi-wireable and bi-ampable. Black bumpers are fitted for shelf use.

Worth knowing

  • Each speaker is about 30 cm tall and weighs 5.13kg net
  • PSB mentions AST-25 floor stands for surround use
  • The slot port faces the rear, so allow some space behind the speakers
