At the Above presents TOM FEREDAY.
The legacy of Dieter Rams ‘Less, but better’ ethos lives on in Tom Fereday’s furniture.
If inanimate objects can be considered honest, we trust the Sydney-based designers’ furniture with our life. Regarding design, production and interaction equally significant; Fereday makes honourable furniture and it’s an honour to present Tom Fereday.
Introducing CAST a new speaker concept in collaboration with Tasmanian audio brand Pitt & Giblin launched for Melbourne Design Week as part of solo exhibition Aver with Gallery Oigall Projects.
‘Four marine grade aluminium castings all produced in Tasmania house four loudspeaker elements. A high frequency driver plays into a large circular waveguide. A titanium diaphragm plays from 1kHz and provides even high frequency coverage across the listening area and room to 20kHz.
Concealed behind are four 4” midrange drivers housed in a sealed plywood enclosure with response tightly controlled by Hypex nCore amplifiers and digital signal processing, and their output is vented in a controlled manner using both absorbative materials and physical alignment.
The main body of the cabinet seamlessly cast provides volume for a large rear firing 10” subwoofer. A 3-way digital amplifier and signal processing module is housed with the stand providing simple control and a selection of audio inputs to suit any configuration operating both as single or paired speaker.’
Material: Marine grade Aluminium
