Floorstanding loudspeakers — Audio Physic CLASSIC 35

The Audio Physic Classic 35 is a tower speaker in Audio Physic's Classic range, sized between the compact Classic 8 and the considerably larger Cardeas. Wood and glass cabinets are available, and the model suits those after a full-height floorstander without moving up to Audio Physic's largest and most demanding designs.

Key specs that matter

Its specified bandwidth is 32Hz to 30,000Hz within plus or minus 3dB. Sensitivity is 89dB at 1W/1m, impedance is 4 ohms nominal, and amplifiers from 20 to 160W are recommended, an accessible window for a floorstander of these dimensions. The cabinet measures 114.5 x 20.2 x 34.0cm.

Engineering and use context

As elsewhere in the Classic line, the cabinet is built with resonance control in mind, here combined with the deeper bass and greater scale a tower offers over a stand-mount. Weight depends on the finish, at 32kg per speaker in wood and 35kg in glass.

Pairing

The moderate power requirement and this sensitivity make the Classic 35 compatible with a broad selection of integrated amplifiers. It does not need the high current delivery that the larger Audio Physic models call for, although an amplifier that handles 4 ohm loads comfortably remains the sensible choice.

Alternatives

From the same Classic line, the Audio Physic Classic 8 is a more compact floorstanding alternative.
