TAD-ME1TX

TAD Micro Evolution One TX is a high-end 3-way bookshelf loudspeaker system from Technical Audio Devices Laboratories (TAD)—part of the brand’s Evolution Series designed to deliver refined, natural, and reference-level sound in a compact form. Building on the legacy of the acclaimed original ME1, the ME1 TX introduces significant driver, diaphragm, and enclosure improvements for an immersive and detailed listening experience.

Key Features

Coherent Source Transducer (CST) Driver
At the heart of the ME1 TX is TAD’s proprietary 9 cm CST driver, which integrates the midrange and tweeter coaxially for a true point-source sound. This design optimizes phase alignment and directivity control for coherent imaging and a spacious, natural-sounding sound field from a single driver unit.

Advanced Diaphragms for Precision Sound
• Beryllium Tweeter: A newly developed 2.5 cm beryllium diaphragm provides exceptionally smooth and wide-extension high frequencies with low distortion.
• Magnesium Midrange: The midrange uses a lightweight, high-internal-loss magnesium diaphragm that minimizes resonances and yields clearer, distortion-free midrange reproduction.
• MACC Woofer: The 16 cm woofer features a Multi-Layered Aramid Composite Cone for rich, deep bass and minimal coloration in the lower bands.

Silent Enclosure with Vibration Damping
The speaker’s SILENT (Structurally Inert Laminated Enclosure Technology) cabinet combines birch plywood bracing, MDF with high internal loss, and steel side panels to reduce unwanted resonances and internal standing waves—resulting in cleaner dynamics and tighter bass response.

Bidirectional ADS Port Design
Symmetrically placed bidirectional Aero-Dynamic Slot (ADS) ports improve low-frequency extension and reduce port noise by smoothing airflow and canceling port-air vibration effects, contributing to rich, natural bass performance despite the compact size.

Elegant Craftsmanship and Finishes
Available in classic finishes, the ME1 TX is meticulously finished by artisans with high-grade surface coatings and polishing. Each speaker includes non-slip pads and a protective grille designed to have minimal acoustic impact.

Why it matters: The Micro Evolution One TX brings reference-grade audio technologies—including advanced materials, CST driver architecture, and refined bass porting—into a bookshelf-sized package that delivers clarity, dynamics, and imaging well beyond its footprint. Its elevated engineering and craftsmanship make it ideal for serious listeners seeking high-resolution sound in compact form.
