Role Audio - Windjammer

Measuring only 5 inches wide by 39 inches high ( with spikes attached) by 6.5 inches deep, the Windjammer is a potent loudspeaker that is designed to play in small to moderate sized rooms. Its frequency response is 35Hz to 20kHz.

The Windjammer’s innovative transmission line design and high quality elements allows it to play undistorted room shaking party music or smooth, lush background music. It throws a wide and high soundstage that will envelope you in the emotion and reality of the original performance.

Its bass response is riveting, and its reproduction of the stereophonic soundstage and its imaging are among the best you will ever hear, regardless of price. Its integration and speed has been described as electrostatic.

Its svelte design will complement any decor and allows you ease of placement to deliver great sound where you want it.

One listen to the Windjammer and you will hear performance that is hard to beat at any price. “they “image like lasers.” They looked very attractive like that — not only did my wife not complain, she asked that they not leave..” In my opinion, one of the best “sound and style” loudspeakers on the planet today is Mirage’s Omnisat v2 FS,… the v2 FS’s bass is decent and well controlled but doesn’t go all that deep — it has me itching to use a sub. The Windjammer, on the other hand, is not lightweight down low, … it’s quite fleshed out for a “sound and style” speaker The v2 FS is an Omnipolar design, meaning that it radiates its sound through 360 degrees. This results in a sprawling soundstage that’s even more spacious than the Windjammers’, but not as well-defined. I could never say of the Mirages — as I do of the Roles — that they “image like lasers.” Furthermore, because of the way Mirage speakers “spray out” their sound, you don’t want to place them close to walls —  The front-firing Windjammer, on the other hand, seems to sound best when placed close to the wall behind it (at least in my room).
