Pioneer introduces design-led Series 3 home cinema package

Pioneer S-31B

That all makes the new Series 3 range of speakers sound rather interesting. Comprising the S-31 floorstander, S-31B bookshelf speaker (pictured), S-31C centre channel and the S-51W subwoofer, there's a complete cinema package.

Boasting new soft dome tweeters and glass fibre cone woofers, the speakers have been built by French product designer Steeve Senescat, the brain behind the EX Series' appearance.

All models feature Pioneer Phase Control technology, at its best when combined with Phase Control on a Pioneer AV receiver.

No word on prices as yet but all the Pioneer Series 3 loudspeakers will be available in November 2009.
