Perlisten Audio’s introduction made a big splash in the high-end AV world with their acclaimed Signature loudspeaker series. In our in-depth reviews of their S7t , D215s, and S4b speakers, they did everything right; they had looks, brains, and brawn. The only problem is that they were expensive and were priced out of reach for the majority of loudspeaker buyers. With that in mind, Perlisten decided to launch a more affordable loudspeaker line that kept the core technologies of the Signatures but used less exotic and therefore less expensive components. They called this line the “Reference” series, and they have recently expanded it so that almost every Signature product has a Reference series counterpart. The Reference series promises a large fraction of the same performance as the Signature series but at roughly half the cost.
