More about the Satellite 248
Compared with larger round speakers, the 4×8” ovals emphasize the midrange over deep bass, producing a relatively lean but focused tonal balance. Notes have a clear, articulate attack, accompanied by a subtle papery coloration in the middle frequencies and a mildly chimey quality in the upper register. Although the speakers have a smaller radiating area than conventional 8” drivers, their sound is not necessarily thin or lacking in body, particularly when operated together as a pair.
The Satellite 248’s two speakers are spaced approximately 10 inches apart, considerably closer together than the onboard speakers of a Wurlitzer 200. This compact arrangement helps the pair behave more like a single sound source across a wider range of frequencies.
