PSB Alpha P5 Passive Bookshelf

Give music and movies a sonic boost

Compact PSB Alpha P5 speakers offer a cost-effective way to make movies and music sound great. Use this pair to listen your favorite tunes in a stereo system, or use them as front or surround speakers to make movie and TV watching an immersive experience.

Each attractive wood-grain cabinet houses a 3/4″ anodized aluminum dome tweeter with front waveguide, and a 5-1/4″ textured polypropylene woofer with rubber surround. And you may notice that the tweeter is mounted below the woofer, which is the opposite of the usual arrangement. PSB’s founder and chief engineer, Paul Barton explains that this design feature helps keep sound properly in phase for frequencies where the woofer and tweeter are both playing.
