Parmenter Sound’s new reference loudspeaker - The Lockwood Major

The Lockwood Major is the epitome of premium materials and acoustic engineering. Originally launched in the 60s the Lockwood Major became a studio reference standard, especially here in the UK. Notably, Abbey Road, Olympic, Chappell and Trident recording studios all had Lockwood Majors fitted to their control rooms.

Famously The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Queen, Lou Reed and many of the world’s best-sounding and iconic albums were recorded and mixed using Lockwood Major loudspeakers.

The 15-inch dual concentric point-source driver delivers outstanding time coherence with accurate articulation, extremely low colouration, exceptional micro and macro detail and incredibly natural vocal reproduction. For bass reproduction, the 15” driver delivers outstanding dynamic drive, unrivalled accuracy and high-power handling. This results in exceptional acoustic performance with minimal colouration and unmatched musical integrity.

The Major is a true Lockwood classic capable of stunning realism, effortlessly capable of resolving truly low frequencies and delivering tight, fast and controlled bass with transparent midrange and natural high frequencies with unrivalled accuracy detail.
