Description

Alpha P5 – Bookshelf

Breakthrough design for incredible studio-quality sound.

The P5 bookshelf speaker is a classic two-way design that can be placed on a stand, a shelf, a desk, or a table and is equally well-suited for home theater or stereo listening. A timeless design featuring a 5.25” woofer, the P5 allows you to transform your system with pristine sound. The P5 uses a 0.75” black anodized aluminium dome tweeter to extend the high-frequency response further than any Alpha ever before while lowering distortion to deliver layered sound with detail and clarity. Available in choice of simulated Walnut or Black Ash, the P5 delivers outsized performance compared to its nearest competitors. Simply add a subwoofer (for even deeper bass) and/or other Alpha models for an awesome home theater experience.

  • ¾” 19mm Aluminum Dome tweeter with Neodymium magnet
  • Woofer with Polypropylene Cones and Rubber Surrounds
  • 5-Way, Gold-Plated Binding Posts

How to Improve on a Legend
While the original intent has not changed, today’s Alpha designs benefit greatly from improved materials and production techniques, not to mention an additional 30 years of experience. These new Alpha models are ‘clean sheet” designs taking full advantage of the latest available technologies to create speakers that are smooth and dynamic with the ability to express the full range of musical sounds with nothing added and nothing taken away.

Improved Drivers and Materials
For the new Alpha P5, PSB developed a new 5 ¼” woofer employing dual layer voice coils with powerful magnets and polypropylene cones for detail, low distortion and power handling. A new ¾” (19mm) tweeter is ferrofluid cooled and features a Neodymium magnet for high sensitivity and power handling. A wave guide on the front of the tweeter helps match the response of the tweeter near the crossover point with the woofer for a seamless transition. Of note, the tweeter is placed below the woofer on some models which, in concert with the precisely engineered crossover network, provides a uniform sound field whether the listener is seated or standing.

Unsurpassed Value
In keeping with the Alpha philosophy, the P5 indeed represents remarkable value for its size and performance. In fact, though the new models easily outperform the originals, all of the new Alphas are slightly cheaper than the original models, when adjusted for inflation. Better performance for less money means outstanding value.

Why Choose PSB

PSB Speakers is a Canadian loudspeaker manufacturer founded by legendary designer Paul Barton, whose work has long focused on combining scientific acoustic research with natural and highly approachable musical performance. Developed alongside extensive listening research conducted through Canada’s National Research Council, PSB products are engineered around the idea that loudspeakers should reproduce music with tonal accuracy, balance, and long-term listenability across real-world listening environments.

At HeyNow Hi-Fi, PSB occupies a particularly interesting space within the market because the range combines excellent engineering, practical usability, and strong value while remaining less commonly encountered than many mainstream loudspeaker brands. The result is a lineup that often surprises customers with just how refined, flexible, and musically satisfying the products are at their respective price points.

Signature Design and Sound

PSB products are known for their balanced and easy-to-live-with presentation. Rather than sounding exaggerated or overly analytical, the speakers tend to focus on tonal coherence, natural vocals, controlled bass performance, and broad compatibility across different amplifiers, rooms, and listening styles.

One of the standout areas within the range is the PSB Alpha iQ active streaming speaker system. Incorporating integrated amplification together with the excellent BluOS streaming platform, the Alpha iQ delivers a highly modern and remarkably complete Hi-Fi solution with minimal system complexity. For customers wanting genuine stereo performance without the need for multiple separate components, the Alpha iQ has become one of the most compelling compact streaming systems currently available.

PSB’s AM Series active speakers also offer a highly practical and musically engaging approach to modern desktop and compact Hi-Fi listening. Combining active amplification with strong tonal balance and excellent usability, they work beautifully within home offices, smaller rooms, and lifestyle-oriented listening spaces while still maintaining genuine stereo credibility.

The range also extends into architectural speakers, including in-wall and in-ceiling models designed for discreet distributed audio and home theatre integration, together with heritage-inspired passive speakers such as the Passif 50, which offers a modern interpretation of classic monitor-style loudspeaker design.

PSB Product Range

The PSB range available through HeyNow Hi-Fi includes active streaming loudspeakers, powered desktop speakers, passive loudspeakers, architectural audio solutions, and wireless headphone products designed for both home and travel use.

The Alpha iQ and AM Series in particular represent excellent opportunities for customers seeking high-quality sound with minimal complexity, while the Passif 50 appeals strongly to listeners who appreciate classic loudspeaker proportions and a more traditional stereo presentation.

PSB’s wireless noise-cancelling headphones also remain highly practical for travel, particularly due to their use of replaceable AA battery operation rather than fixed internal rechargeable batteries. For many travellers and long-term owners, this offers a level of convenience and longevity that is becoming increasingly rare within modern portable audio products.

At HeyNow Hi-Fi, Geoff and his experienced system setup team provide assistance with streaming integration, speaker matching, architectural audio planning, and complete system optimisation to ensure PSB products perform at their full potential within each customer’s listening environment.
