Follow on Google News | Ferguson Hill clearly means business. Introducing the Jetstream Loudspeaker SystemBritish maker announces Jetstream, the evolution of its ground-breaking FH001 system
By: Ginger Dog Comms The Jetstream is Ferguson Hill's finest-ever design, two decades in the making, building on the seminal FH001. Twenty years after unveiling its debut system, Ferguson Hill's latest offering maintains those extraordinary, transparent visuals; however, the Kent-based maker upgrades practically every single component to create the Jetstream Loudspeaker System. As Ferguson Hill founder and designer Tim Hill notes, "I have incorporated all the changes I have wanted to do since the launch of the FH001 twenty years ago." Ferguson Hill represents a labour of love for Tim. The former aeronautical engineer has had a passion for audio since he started building his own loudspeakers in Camden as a teenager. Unbeknown to Tim, who thought he was simply 'recycling' to make room for the next generation, a London music studio head repeatedly collected Tim's prototypes and put them to professional use. A chance meeting between Tim and this avid fan helped reassure Tim that he was on the right path, and ultimately, Ferguson Hill was borne. The new Ferguson Hill Jetstream Loudspeaker System comprises a pair of Jetstream Horn Loudspeakers, a pair of Jetstream Bass Speakers, and a Jetstream Bass Amplifier. As Tim Hill says above, the system has been entirely reworked from the ground up. For example, those magnificent horn speakers now feature the company's own manufactured semi-full range drive unit, created in conjunction with Cube Audio of Poland. Improvements to the interface between the acrylic horn and the metal ring result in a more even sound wave expansion from the circular drive unit diaphragm to the oval mouth of the horn. Though a large portion of the new system is transparent, many of the improvements to the structure are internal - for example, the dampening structures between the metal ring and the drive unit and the internal leg dampening – and cannot be seen. But they can be heard.
