"I was astonished by what a big sound came from these rather compact towers - like a much larger and taller speaker with more drivers - at least a true three-way design..."

"One thing I quickly noticed was the excellent imaging with the Roles..."

"I was impressed by the high quality fit and finish of the black lacquer and birch cabinets of the speakers. Sophisticated lock-miter construction is used and corners are rounded throughout. The two-tone design is very striking and makes the thin towers appear even thinner..."
John Sunier, Audiophile Auditions, www.audaud.com, September 2005

"The Enterprises were able to deliver everything from the full wallop of Phil Rudd's kick drum, to Wagner's Teutonic Fantasizing..."
Jeff Rabin, enjoythemusic.com, Novemebr 2006


As the the top-of-the-line loudspeaker in the Role Audio line, the Enterprise measures only 5.5 inches wide by 43 inches high by 10.5 inches deep, and offers concert hall performance (35 Hz to 20 kHz) in a very elegant design that is intended for placement in small to large rooms. 

How can the Enterprise image as well as it does and at the same time deliver extended "bass to die for?"
The Enterprise features Role Audio unique DTL proprietary dual transmission line technology that allows the Enterprise to deliver the effortless dynamics often associated with electrostatic loudspeakers, the bass extension of large floor standing loudspeakers, while it retains the finesse, soundstaging, and imaging of the best small minimonitors.


     The Enterprise is designed to meet the needs of the most demanding music lovers, serious audiophiles, and home theater enthusiasts. And although it costs a fraction of the price of competitive loudspeakers such as
Thiel Audio CS 2.4, B&W 804, and Vandersteen 3A. The Enterprise delivers better bass and better imaging,
at a fraction of the size and cost of the competition.

   
    The beautiful "two-tone striking" handcrafted Enterprise cabinets feature all rounded edges, sophisticated lock miter construction, sophisticated lock miter constructioninnovative fabrication of ports and TL lines, and attention to detail that is unprecedented. "The Enterprise’s svelte elegance allows for greater "Significant Other Acceptance Factor" than any other floor standing speaker I have ever used. Believe me when I say that pictures do not begin to tell the story of the Enterprise’s aesthetic charms."
    
Our cabinets feature our "picture frame" design with no hard edges. Wood side panels are framed in front, on top and in back with satin black lacquer panels to enhance the natural beauty of wood. In the case of our all natural wood cabinets, the front, top, and back panels are finished in Russian white Baltic birch. Our cabinets show we pay attention to our loudspeakers not only as fine reproducers of music but also as objects of art.
