Other Notes: "The model is not nearly as pretty as the glass-topped Reference series; it's a bit slabby in an old-model Volvo way, but has the de-rigueur blue LED in the front and a handsome grille through which you can see the mighty driver lurking. This has a huge top roll surround and is as job-specific as an anteater's tongue.
The output is prodigious, with a large extension from the Acoustic Resistive Matrix enclosure. The box is weighty and complex, and allows for an insane depth and range of low frequencies to be propagated.Its character is melodic with superb control and lycra-tight accuracy.
The result is a fabulously high-end output with both pressure and sustainable weight for fear-register effects and room-bursting explosions.
That said, I can detect a difference in the last iota of performance and grip when compared to the top-end Reference job that lives in my room, but the sound that the Britannia B1 makes is definitely in that top echelon. It is serious money, but the B1 will grab and twist exactly when the director and his sound engineers decide." - TechRadar
