Available with the option of either dome or ribbon tweeters (ribbon available from May 2026), the Response DB1 achieves a sound normally associated with a larger speaker, particularly the bass response.
The DB1 cabinet is made from different thicknesses of high density MDF and further damped by bitumen to control cabinet resonance. A newly designed long throw bass driver is ported at the rear. The cone is made from pulp and mica which is then elastic coated and fitted with our ProAc acrylic pole damping phase plug.
The crossover is designed to give a flatter response at high levels and the tweeter is either the ProAc 1-inch silk dome or the ribbon, lighter than a human hair with rear chamber damping and alnico magnet. Both tweeters bring outstanding detail to the high frequencies and are a very popular choice in our other response models.
The midrange and high frequencies of the DB1 are superb and in the ProAc tradition, low in colouration and high in detail. The bass driver gives a wonderful bass quality, punchy and extended, similar to that which is experienced in a larger enclosure. The resulting sound stage is also comparable to that of a larger speaker.
Small mini monitor type loudspeakers, such as the DB1 have become very popular for those wishing for a high-quality sound with a minimal visual impact.
