Key Features
Dual Circuit Boards
Optimised crossover boards filter the electrical signal to ensure sound that is truly lifelike.
2 -Way Design
Compact 2-way monitor that sounds more like a large floor stander.
Time Correction Filter
The sophisticated time correction network provides breathtaking soundstage and musical accuracy.
High Value
High performance speakers with a price tag 200 - 400% less than your local audio store.
Proprietary Bracing
Dual asymmetric bracing removes unwanted cabinet resonances for transparent sound reporduction.
Bass Reflex
Rear ported design for deep punchy bass.
Diffraction Control
Offset tweeter placement for reduced diffraction and accurate tonality.
5 years Warranty
Extended warranty provided for peace of mind. After this period, we will replace or fix any item so you can enjoy these speakers for life.
STATE-OF-THE-ART SOUND REPRODUCTION
The Trohet R delivers exceptional clarity, natural tonality and precise imaging from a compact stand-mount design.
Scan-Speak Revelator drivers provide extremely low distortion across a wide frequency range, allowing fine details in a recording to remain clear and defined. A carefully developed passive crossover controls the acoustic response and integration between the drivers, creating accurate imaging and a balanced in-room response.
Music has a strong sense of space, depth and presence, with the resolution to hear deep into a recording.
LISTEN AT HOME FOR TWO WEEKS
Buying loudspeakers without hearing them in your own room can be difficult. Every pair of Trohet R speakers includes a two-week in-home trial, giving you time to listen with your own system and music.
If they're not right for you, return them within 14 days of delivery for a refund of the purchase price. The speakers simply need to be returned in their original condition. Return shipping costs are not refundable.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
I first heard the Trohet R’s when I went to friend’s house and on entering his living space had a “wow moment” when I heard the wonderful soundstage being presented by these speakers.
I contacted Atlas the next day and ordered a pair to be custom made. I’m an avid listener of jazz, in particular, and have always had good hifi components but these speakers, out of any I’ve ever owned, have just blown me away for their crystal clarity, depth and warmth of sound - they colour the music just as I imagine the artist would want it to be heard.
Thank you Atlas for introducing me to an amazing new listening experience. These speakers are for life.

THE VALUE OF MADE TO ORDER
The Trohet R is sold directly from our workshop, without distributors or traditional retail markups.
This allows more of the purchase price to go into the speaker itself, including Scan-Speak Revelator drivers, a sophisticated passive crossover and individually finished timber cabinets.
The $10,800 comparison shown here is deliberately conservative. Loudspeakers built around components and engineering of this level can sell for considerably more through traditional retail channels.
WARM YET DETAILED
The Trohet R is designed for detail without becoming bright or fatiguing. It has a natural warmth that makes long listening sessions easy, while retaining the clarity and resolution expected from a high-end loudspeaker.
The Scan-Speak Revelator woofer and tweeter are exceptionally low-distortion drivers. Combined with the carefully developed crossover, they maintain clarity through the midrange and high frequencies without relying on an elevated treble response to create the impression of detail.
The balance is deliberate: warm, natural and easy to listen to, while still revealing the finer details in a recording.
THE REVELATOR
the heart of the Trohet R are two of Scan-Speak’s finest drivers: the 15W/8530 woofer and R2904 tweeter from its Revelator series.
Both are engineered for exceptionally low distortion, allowing fine detail to come through cleanly even as volume increases. The 15W uses Scan-Speak’s sliced paper cone to control resonances, while the R2904 ring-radiator tweeter provides wide bandwidth and excellent high-frequency resolution.
Bringing them together is the Trohet R’s carefully developed passive crossover, designed to integrate the two drivers into a coherent, naturally balanced loudspeaker.
ANALOGUE FILTER
The Trohet R uses an unusually sophisticated passive crossover to control the acoustic behaviour of both drivers and integrate them as a single system.
The woofer network includes dedicated correction circuits to control baffle step and cone breakup, while the tweeter network incorporates electrical time alignment to improve phase integration between the two drivers.
The crossover uses film capacitors, air-core inductors and high-power resistors throughout, with 23 components per speaker. The complexity serves a specific purpose: smooth acoustic integration, controlled off-axis behaviour and a naturally balanced in-room response.
Deep Bass
Compact Cabinet
Despite its compact size, the Trohet R produces genuinely deep bass, reaching 45 Hz anechoic and approximately 35 Hz in-room depending on placement and room acoustics.
The rear-ported enclosure is carefully tuned to extend the low-frequency response while maintaining control and low port noise.
Combined with the long-excursion Scan-Speak Revelator woofer, it gives the Trohet R a sense of scale and weight that is unusual for a speaker of this size.

Reference Frequency Response
The TROHET's have a frequency response of +-2 dB between 100-20KHz. The frequency range below 700 hertz is 1 dB above the median response level, which provides warmth and body for musical enjoyment.
The Inverse Response
This graph shows the response when the tweeter is measured 180° out of phase. The deeper the "null", the better the phase tracking. Phase is an often-overlooked part of speaker design, where many just focus on the frequency response. In my experience, a speaker is only great when both phase and frequency are optimised.
Impedance Response
The graph also shows the impedance response, which demonstrates a moderately easy speaker to drive, it may not be suitable for all tube amps, but any solid state will be able to drive these speakers. The key features of the impedance response are detailed below;
-
The ported cabinet tuning frequency is shown to be 39 Hz.
-
The nominal impedance is 8Ω between 1Hz - 20kHz.
-
Max impedance of 26.85Ω @ 71 Hz.
-
Min impedance of 5.05Ω @ 383 Hz.
-
Max electrical phase shift of 40° @ 774 Hz.
-
Min electrical phase shift of -52.31° @ 90 Hz.
