Pendula

The Pendula 8 TL is the first of our wall-based loudspeaker Pendula family designed to disappear into architecture—either built flush into the wall or mounted on the surface like an elegant panel—while delivering true high-end HiFi sound. It carries the natural, balanced voicing and extreme vocal intelligibility of the Aphelia 8, but with the added low-end authority you’d normally expect from a larger floorstanding design.

The “TL” refers to its transmission-line bass loading: a long, tuned internal pathway that controls the woofer’s rear energy to extend bass smoothly and reduce boom—especially important for on-wall and in-wall placement. The second-generation Dynamic Waveguides evenly distribute higher frequencies throughout the room. The result is immersive, even sound, so you don’t have to design your space around a single “best seat.”

Pendula: 1) Latin, meaning “hanging down”—a nod to the speaker’s wall-mounted form. 2) A reference to Australia’s native flora with pendulous leaves, e.g., Acacia pendula and many eucalypts.

Pendula Features

  • 2-way, in-wall or on-wall passive speakers. By using a passive design, you can be sure that the speakers will not become obsolete as amplifier and connectivity technologies improve.

  • Designed for premium interiors: tall, slim proportions with warm timber detailing, optional minimalist acoustically transparent cloth grilles, and SpectraFlora’s signature floral laser etching.

  • Transmission-line bass (the “TL”): extends bass smoothly and reduces boom for deep, controlled low frequencies in wall-based placements—often reducing the need for separate subwoofers.

  • Next-generation, constant-directivity Dynamic Waveguide engineered to spread sound evenly left-to-right and top-to-bottom, keeping tone consistent across the room even when the front surface sits flush to the wall.

  • Proven 8-inch graphene-coated magnesium woofer (shared voicing and driver philosophy with our Aphelia 8): fast, rigid and clean, delivering lifelike vocals and realistic instruments.

  • Quiet, rigid construction: braced plywood enclosure with dense internal damping to minimise cabinet “voice” and preserve clarity and listening ease.

  • Designed for practical installation, including fitting between standard stud centres for straightforward in-wall integration.
