Design, skill and great beauty meet in PMC’s latest fact model, the engineering defining the aesthetics and the aesthetics defining the engineering.
Elegant design and advanced engineering come together to produce the ultimate musical listening experience. The top-of-the-range fact model combines new materials, innovative aerodynamic engineering, groundbreaking vibration-cancelling design, cutting-edge cabinets and drivers, PMC's patented Advanced Transmission Line (ATL™) bass-loading technology and state-of-the-art looks to create a loudspeaker which adds no sound of its own to the music it reproduces.
This is why we call it... ... the loudspeaker you’ll never hear

VOCALS YOU CAN TOUCH
The 75mm soft-dome mid-range driver covers the key frequencies in instrumental and vocal recordings, ensuring dynamic, beautifully lifelike reproduction. The drivers carefully shaped spun aluminium form was engineered to be acoustically inert, producing stable, pin-sharp imaging without unwanted reflections when teamed with the tweeter in the nest.
SUSPENDED IN SPACE
The nest’s minimal, sculpted form is decoupled from the cabinet, connecting with it minimally via four isolation mounts. This excludes vibrations that might colour the treble and mid-range, while the baffle-less design excludes reflections that degrade the imaging in traditional cabinet loudspeakers, creating the sonic impression that the drivers are suspended freely in space.

LITERALLY GROUNDBREAKING
As well as acoustically damping the nest to prevent distortion in fenestria's mid-range and treble drivers, to reduce unwanted low-frequency vibration from the bass drivers and ATL, we employed an innovative design concept derived from technology used to prevent earthquake damage to tall buildings. The planar sides of the speakers move in opposition to the unwanted vibrations, cancelling them out
NO ADDED FLAVOURS OR COLOURING
Other loudspeakers produce unwanted vibrations in the drivers and cabinet that colour the sound. Just as a shaky camera cannot produce a clearly focused image, these unwanted vibrations reduce the clarity and precision of the sonic imaging. With fenestria, such unwanted resonances and unnatural colouration are engineered out of the design, leaving nothing but music.
THE CHOICE OF GRAMMY NOMINATED MASTERING ENGINEERS
Darcy Proper, renowned mastering engineer, has received her twelfth Grammy Award nomination for the “Best Immersive Audio Album” in recognition of her work on artist Alain Mallet’s kaleidoscopic world jazz release, “Mutt Slang II – A Wake of Sorrows Engulfed in Rage”. The album was mastered at Valhalla Studios New York, using PMC fact fenestria speakers as the main monitors.

The source of PMC’s legendary natural, realistic sound is the Advanced Transmission Line (ATL) bass-loading technology, professionally proven all around the world. ATL uses energy generated by the bass unit in a much more intelligent, efficient way than speaker designs based on ported or sealed boxes. In ATL loudspeakers, the highly braced cabinet is lined with a multitude of custom-designed acoustic materials that absorb all but the very lowest frequencies. These exit from a front-panel vent, extending the
low-frequency response, and creating the impression of a far larger speaker with an extra, ultra-high quality bass unit.

Customer Reviews
"PMC’s Fact Fenestria is one of the most gratifying and sonically involving speakers I have reviewed. It’s a complicated design, but PMC’s seamless integration of quality components and innovative technologies has enabled the Fenestria to “disappear” from the room - and the music
The fenestria tell you all about everything that they play; the open baffle of the nest gives them a small speaker precision and nimbleness, while the speed and lack of cabinet vibration in the bass system matches this in the lower registers. This is a phenomenal loudspeaker system of that there is no doubt but more than that is the way it leaves no trace of character on the music being reproduced. I could not hear coloration or distortion of any kind and that’s very rare, what I could hear were new characteristics in virtually everything that got played, and a lot of music passed through the system in the few weeks that these speakers were in the room."

"got the twenty 22 , got blown away by how good they are, have the twenty 26 coming but cannot wait for them as they will be coming fromthe UK via sea freight, A friend suggested the mb2 se at a good price but I remembered having a demo in Hong Kong about the fenestria. A good price was negotiated and the rest is history!"
