NEAT Iota Alpha Natural Oak LoudspeakersNEAT Iota Alpha Natural Oak LoudspeakersThese IOTA Alphas are in superb near mint condition. As approved NEAT dealers, we (HiFiSound Limited) will also be offering a full 12 month warranty.Neats loudspeakers have long been renowned for creating big sounds from compact and elegant enclosures. However, the Iota ALPHA succeeds in stretching this concept well beyond the limits of what might be expected.The original Iota loudspeaker has been a huge and continuing success since its appearance in 2011, and the idea of a low-down floor standing version has been mooted ever since. All that was necessary for the new model was to retain the exceptional abilities of the Iota and build on these in a floor-standing configuration.
This is easier said than done, of course. But the Iota ALPHA delivers completely on target.The crossover is a simple two-and-a-half-way design, employing 1st & 2nd order slopes. The crossover components are all hard-wired, with point-to-point connections in order to maximise integrity. The crossover components are of premium audiophile quality and include polypropylene capacitors and low-dcr air-core inductors.At a mere 45cm tall the Iota ALPHA can be placed discreetly in the room, yet it delivers a genuine full-range musical experience on a scale that suggests a far bigger (and more expensive) loudspeaker.Visually deceptive, the Iota Alpha required some unorthodox imagineering. The basis of the original Iota (the main drive unit and the EMIT type planar magnetic tweeter) is housed in the top section of the cabinet, in a sealed volume, angled upwards. This section is configured as a two-way closed box loudspeaker. The whole of the ported lower section is dedicated to augmenting the lower frequencies, via a downward-firing 134mm drive unit mounted on the bottom panel.Reviews
That so much bass can exude from such a small enclosure is taking physics to its limits
The Ear, Sept 2016
[The ALPHAs] speed, focus and near-magical imaging not to mention their invisibility prove highly appealing
Hi-Fi News, Oct 2016
It can really power out tight, fast, well-extended basslines, beautifully integrated with what the rest of the frequency range is doing.Hi-Fi Choice, Aug 2016
