Advent /1  _Bookshelf speakers

1978

Made in Cambridge, Massachusetts

A classic New England loudspeaker inspired by the vision of legendary designer Henry Kloss, one of the true pioneers of American hi-fi.

The Advent /1 delivers the smooth, natural and balanced sound that made Advent famous among music lovers.

Its iconic “fried egg” tweeter provides wide dispersion and sweet, non-fatiguing highs, while the acoustic-suspension cabinet produces deep, controlled bass well beyond what its compact size would suggest.

Simple, elegant and timeless, the Advent /1 remains one of the great values in vintage audio and a perfect example of the classic East Coast sound.
