The Reference Gold 3 Center Channel Loudspeaker employs our open baffle technology to eliminate box coloration and provides a perfect match to NOLA Reference Series 3 products in concept and quality.

Four state-of-the-art transducers are utilized in a 3-way design with midrange and ribbon tweeter deployed in a central vertical open baffle array. These are flanked by 2 horizontally deployed 160 mm high speed magnesium cone woofers in sealed enclosures driven by massive Super Alnico magnet systems for lowest distortion. Clean response to 35 Hz is provided.

The new tri-laminate 120mm midrange uses state-of-the-art Gold Plated Solid Copper phase plugs and massive super Alnico magnet systems, and is the very same unit that is used in the Grand Reference Gold VII system.

The tweeter is the NOLA True Ribbon tweeter with response to 100 kHz, and is the same unit used in all Reference models.

The ultimate in "live", open and spaciousness is produced.

A major breakthrough in new crossovers has led to a stunning upgrade in performance.
