Passif 50 - Tower

Celebrating 50 Years of Audio Excellence

The PSB Passif 50 Standmount Loudspeaker, an Anniversary Edition, combines retro charm with contemporary audio prowess. Crafted to celebrate 50 years of PSB Speakers, it echoes the legendary Passif I and Passif II models. Immerse yourself in rich, true-to-nature sound with a touch of nostalgia and cutting-edge technology.

Our legacy of exceptional sound

PSB was built upon a foundation of performance and an unrelenting pursuit of excellence. The Passif 50 continues that legacy. Featuring a 1" titanium dome tweeter with ferrofluid damping and neodymium magnet, it crafts a wide, deep soundstage with exceptional imaging. The 6.5" woofer and 8" passive radiator ensure precise bass reproduction. This marriage of advanced technologies with a vintage-looking speaker design results in a harmonious audio experience, delivering True to Nature sound.

Honouring a heritage. Embracing the future.

While the Passif 50 pays homage to its classic predecessors, it introduces modern refinements. Sold in mirror-imaged pairs, this configuration elevates imaging precision with both tweeters strategically positioned inside the soundstage. Its heavily braced enclosure is meticulously designed, with mitered joints for enhanced fit and finish, minimizing cabinet vibrations. Including dual five-way binding posts allows for versatile bi-wiring or bi-amping options, quickly adapting to your preferred audio setup.

Backed by research and experience

The Passif 50 is a testament to PSB's five decades of acoustic research and design excellence. It promises tonal fidelity, spatial realism, and effortless dynamics at all volumes, representing years of audio innovation. Made for music lovers, this classic stand-mount speaker faithfully reproduces music as intended by the creators, ensuring pure, uncolored sound.

A vintage aesthetic and timeless design

The Passif 50's vintage elegance shines with its open-grained walnut veneer enclosure and magnetically attached woven cloth grille. Its warm walnut veneer enclosures, along with anniversary edition touches like a front grille pull tab featuring PSB’s original logo and a rear-panel plaque commemorating “Passif 50 – 1972-2022,” reflect its nostalgic charm. Coupled with state-of-the-art technology, this retro design pays homage to the past, welcomes the future, and delivers the quality you expect from PSB.

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.
