PMC is respected worldwide for its soft-dome mid-range drivers, and the flagship twenty5.26i, the largest in the range, features a third driver dedicated to the all-important mid frequencies, where the critical detail is to be found in vocal recordings. The three-way design ensures that each important frequency range has its own dedicated driver, so that the speaker can fill even the largest spaces with absolute transparency and clarity. This is a sublime speaker that can expand with you as you upgrade your system, and bring out the very best in whatever equipment you connect it to.

"I have a rather large room and these speakers sound brilliant. I would always recommend to anyone buying floor standing PMC speakers that you also invest in good isolation feet. Takes these speakers to the next level."
Mr T, South Perth

"J'adore mes nouvelles enceinte acoustique. Son remarquablement détaillé, les voix sont sublimes et les bases sont propres et profindes. Le cabinet est d'une signature sublime."
Mr J, Beloeil

"I loved my PMC Twenty5.23's so much I had to take the next step to the Twenty5.26i."
Mr P, Warrnambool

"I had the PMC Twenty5.23 and loved the ATL technology and sound. I'd always dreamed of moving up to the Twenty5.26i and a pair became available at the right time."
Mr P, Warrnambool

"The 25.26i are very revealing speakers without being harsh. Still being run in so undoubtedly will improve in the future. The ATL technology for the bass ensures that speakers can be placed close to the rear wall which is important in my living room, where it can't be configured as a dedicated listening room."
Mr N, Leeds

"Sehr gute Verarbeitung Erste Hör-Eindrücke: fein auflösender Klang mit guter räumlicher Abbildung"
Mr W, KRONBURG

"Not yet finished the Run-In and the speakers already sound great. I am very satisfied."
Mr F, Berlin

"Great speakers - love them :-)"
Mr D, Haan

"I had been very happy with my Twenty 23 speakers for the last 10 years or so, but it was the right time for me to upgrade and did so with the Twenty5 26is and all I can say is 'Wow! I'm so glad I did'. They're very balanced, natural sounding, detailed speakers."
Mr S, Abergavenny

"Have only listened to them for 3 hours so no where near bedded in yet but I love the sound and can honestly say I don’t think I’ll be looking at new speakers for a long time.."
Mr D, Norwich

"I bought 25 26i.Sound is amazing."
Mr R, Chigwell Essex

"Nice and pure sound"
Mr D, PARIS

"Uitstekend."
Mr W, Rijmenam

"Excellent produit"
Mr D, MARNES LA COQUETTE

"Produit encore en rodage. Satisfait de mon achat. Les enceintes semblent bien équilibrées, avec un grave tendu, un aigue fin et non agressif et des médiums bien présents."
Mr D, MARNES LA COQUETTE

"for the short time of using the product quality is highly appeciated!"
Mr F, Vendersheim

"We have only just had the installation, but so far they are sounding great."
Mr D, Bexleyheath

"very,very good !!!"
Mr W, Hattingen

"Only one hour with them so far, but loving my new speakers so far! Wow."
Mr C, Westport

"I have only had the speakers for a day and am still running them in. They look great and their performance on a couple of tracks (e.g. I'm a Man by Chicago) demonstrate their potential. With that particular track I have never before heard the quality of the percussion. Overall, I like the sound very much, based on the demonstration. I will know more about how these speakers perform, particularly in relation to the sound stage, in a week or two."
Mr A, Norwich

"Wat een wereld van verschil met andere merken. Alle muziek klinkt nu voller, rijker en helderder."
Mr P, Wijgmaal - LEUVEN

"These were a big step up (10+ fold) over the speakers they replaced. Terrific balance of detail and tone. Dynamic room filling sound that seems to flood the room with ease. Product physically are a nice size as to not dominate the room."
Mr P, Newark

"Überragender Klang und unkritisch in der Aufstellung. Perfekter Bass. Ich liebe diesen Lautsprecher"
Mr R, Durbach

"Very detailed sound, much more revealing than previous speakers & beautifully made."
Mr C, Norfolk

"These are my second pair of PMC speakers ( other pair are twenty5 22), all of them are gorgeous."
Mr H, Aberdeen

"My PMCs give me the bass that I have always been looking for, tight, detailed and fast. The midrange is excellent, so are the upper frequencies. Most important, the speakers render a wide, deep, detailed 3D soundstage with perfect instrument placement. For me the twenty5.26i is the perfect speaker."
Mr E, Oslo

"The orchestra is coming into the room, and they are playing together."
Mr H, OSLO

"Reçu mes enceintes aujourd'hui et tout de suite à l'écoute ce qui m'a frappé c'est la transparence, tout ce qui est sur le CD est présent. On est immédiatement ébloui par la beauté des timbres notamment dans les registres médiums aigus. Le grave est déjà bien présent mais on sent qu'avec quelques heures de rodage il va prendre toute son ampleur... J'ai hâte que le rodage soit terminé pour profiter de toutes les capacités de ces enceintes. Merci à PMC pour ces magnifiques enceintes. Je recommande vivement ces enceintes."
Mr F, Paris

"J'apprécie la qualité et l'ampleur de l'écoute pour un encombrement relativement restreint compatible avec l'installation et l'esthétique dans une salle de séjour. J'avais lu le banc d'essai dans le magazine français "Haute Fidélité" et les caractéristiques correspondaient à ma recherche. Je n'ai pu hélas trouvé de revendeur pour une écoute préalable mais j'ai pu écouter le Twenty 5 24 i et la qualité du son cela m'a convaincu en espérant davantage de grave."
Mr P, Nice

"Erg mooi!"
Mr G, Apeldoorn

"I was looking for clarity, especially in the mid range where vocals are and these speakers deliver that very well."
Mr C, Telford

"Love it."
Mr H, Kuala Lumpur

"I just got my speakers two days ago, but I can already tell you that you have made an awesome product. I bought them after reading an article in a Finnish HiFi magazine but I made the right choice."
Mr M, Kaarima

"From twenty 23 to twenty5 24 and now twenty5 26i, it was a journey that I enjoyed thoroughly. As far as speakers concern, this looks like an end game for my quest towards an audio nirvana."
Mr S, SUNGAI BULOH, SELANGOR

"I have upgraded from the Twenty5.23’s to the Twenty5.26i’s. What a difference! Timing, detail & unbelievable control. Just need to upgrade the rest of my system to realise the full potential. Absolutely delighted."
Mr P, HORSHAM

"... out of the box sounds good, strikingly clear and 'airy', but the 50+ hours are still ahead. So, too soon to say, but I have no doubts that I will be more than pleased."
Mr E, Fribourg

"After 30 years with a Naim nac72 nap140 and Ruark speakers decided to upgrade. A friend has a Linn Akurate system with older PMC speakers which sounded much better than my “legacy” system. Was originally planning to audition twenty5 23i with the Linn amps, but Criterion Audio recommended the 26i speakers to match that quality of amplification. A demonstration left me in no doubt, and after a home audition to make sure they worked in my listening room I signed on the dotted line. Very happy with my choice. A massive improvement- more involving, musical and informative. Just superb."
Mr T, Cambridge

"Long overdue upgrade from the original FB1’s. The soundstage and focus is amazing. Now looking forward to replaying my vinyl collection. Happy days ahead."
Mr A, Maldon Essex

"still running in so too early to say but they sound good from the box"
Mr M, Ascot

"I have purchased a PMC Corr amp and twenty5.26i speakers.The main reason I purchased these items was I wanted a clear warm song with good stereo separation . Plus I wanted to have some control to adjust the tone levels on poorly produced Vinyl records.Your amplifier was the only one available that allowed this.I visited 6 different outlets with a budget of £10/20,000. Sevenoaks in Oxford were the only ones that took me seriously and tried to satisfied my needs.The others said all HiFi Manufacturers don't put tone controls on their amplifiers as the want you to hear the track as it was meant to be.Hence a lot of the vinyl which is badly produced sounded terrible."
Mr P, BOURNEMOUTH

"Straight out of the box, the sound quality of the new PMC Twenty5 26i is an improvement over the previous design which itself was excellent. The PMC Twenty5 26i speakers and the matching PMC Twenty5i Centre speaker make for a very potent front LCR package in my Home Cinema when driven by Bryston electonics. The low bass from the PMC Twenty5 26i is controlled and quick and when the family heard these at home for the first time in 2 channel stereo, I was asked 'where is the Subwoofer?' to which I smiled and said 'there isn't one'. Jaws were subsequently on the floor. The PMC Twenty5 26i speakers exhibit a very wide sound field with excellent high frequency imaging and a nice sweet top end to my ears. The 20 year warranty is something unheard of with consumer speakers and it really says something about the confidence PMC have in the design and build quality of their speakers and manufacturing process and it is reassuring to know that if I ever had problems, that I would be looked after. I could tell from the packaging that these speakers have been made with care and attention to detail. The PMC Twenty5 26i speakers are not inexpensive by any means but boy are they worth it!"
Mr M, LONDON

"My 26i driven by a Karan Acoustics amplifier produce a crystal clear sound and a perfect timing."
Mr C, Riedisheim
