What Reviewers Are Saying
SOUND QUALITY PERFORMANCE 90/100
The Tablette 10 Signature is repeatedly praised for an unusually refined, involving presentation that encourages long listening sessions. Its greatest strengths are vivid vocal presence, exceptionally deep image layering and an effortless top end, while bass weight and ultimate output remain deliberately limited by its compact sealed-box design.
Bass
83/100
For a compact 5-inch sealed standmount, reviewers find the bass integration carefully judged rather than artificially bolstered around the upper-bass region. However, both reviews are clear that low-bass output, ultimate weight and very high playback levels are limited; listeners wanting heavy bass or metal-concert scale should look elsewhere.
Mid
93/100
The midrange is a major attraction. Hi-fi+ found female vocals exceptionally intelligible and convincingly rooted in three-dimensional space, crediting the speaker's excellent driver integration, while Alpha Audio highlights the Tablette line's celebrated, almost magical middle register.
Treble
92/100
Hi-fi+ describes the highs as effortless and free of peaks, suggesting a refined presentation with detail but without aggressive emphasis. The broader listening impressions likewise point to a smooth, highly listenable balance rather than a bright or analytical one.
Soundstage Imaging
95/100
Imaging is one of this speaker's standout qualities. Reviewers describe it as disappearing like a point source and delivering extraordinary front-to-back depth and layering, though the soundstage is said to be more deeply dimensional than especially wide; some space from the rear wall is beneficial.
Dynamics
88/100
Hi-fi+ praises the Tablette's speed and fun, room-filling character, so it does not come across as dynamically sluggish despite its modest sensitivity. Its limits emerge against much larger speakers, where bass delivery, loudness capability and headroom are understandably less generous.
Assessments of Build Quality, Usability, and Overall Propositions.
Build Quality
90/100
Alpha Audio calls the seamless cabinet high-quality, while hi-fi+ was impressed by the apparent sophistication of the driver and crossover development. The grille mounting holes slightly interrupt the otherwise clean cabinet appearance, but this is a minor cosmetic criticism rather than a broader concern about construction.
Value for Money
88/100
At approximately £1,958 per pair in the cited hi-fi+ review, with stands extra, this is a premium compact speaker rather than a budget proposition. Even so, hi-fi+ says owners will not feel short-changed and portrays it as the basis of a system that need not invite constant upgrading, provided deep bass and high SPL are not priorities.

Manufacturer's Description — ProAc Loudspeakers
Following the success of the Tablette 10, ProAc decided to develop the design even further and produce a Signature version.
The Tablette 10 Signature shares the attributes of the Tablette 10 but has a larger more projected midrange giving excellent sound stage with a feeling of size, which is often missing in small loudspeakers.
A great deal of time was taken to design a new bass driver with an excel magnet system and our own solid copper phase plug.
After many months of measuring and listening by Stewart Tyler, the hand-built crossover was fine-tuned to obtain the best results from the bass driver.
The end product is a speaker similar to the Tablette 10 in sound but, on certain types of music and voice reproduction, advantages of the Tablette 10 Signature can be easily heard.
As with the Tablette 10, the Signature can be used with its back against the wall or alternatively, on good quality stands.
Punching well above its weight, the Tablette 10 Signature has taken the iconic ProAc Tablette design to its ultimate level of performance.
Featured veneer: Ebony
