Key Features and Performance Design & Build: The P4.2 Next is a slim tower (92.7 x 19 x 29.5 cm) weighing roughly 19-20 kg each. It features high-quality Scan-Speak dome tweeters and Peerless HDS mid-woofers, with a 5-degree backward tilt for better phase alignment. Sound Profile: The sound is noted for being neutral and transparent, with a "natural" and "sparkly" high range that is never fatiguing, largely thanks to the Scan Speak tweeter. Bass Performance: The 2.5-way design, with two rear-firing ports for the dual 13 cm woofers, offers good bass extension down to around 40 Hz.
Soundstage: The speakers offer excellent, wide, and deep 3D imaging, especially when placed away from rear walls (1 meter or more), and are known for "disappearing" well in a room. Tweeter Adjustment: A rear-positioned jumper allows the treble level to be adjusted by 0 dB, +1 dB, or +2 dB to match room acoustics.
Technical Considerations Load: While rated at 4 Ohm, measurements suggest the P4 Next can drop to around 2.8 Ohm at 200 Hz, making it a relatively demanding load for lower-powered amplifiers. Recommended Power: It is recommended to pair them with solid-state, high-current amplifiers to maximize their performance. Break-in: Around 50 hours of break-in is generally suggested to reach peak performance. Verdict The Phonar Veritas P4 NEXT is praised as a "musical great" that punches well above its weight in terms of craftsmanship and sound quality. It is considered a very safe, "wise choice" for listeners who prioritize neutrality and a wide range of musical genres over a specific sonic coloration.
