PUTTING YOU CENTRE STAGE & RIGHT IN THE ACTION
Listening to your favourite tracks on the Y4 will give you a similar experience as listening to them live at a concert; every instrument, every voice, and every percussive sound is heard and nothing is lost. On tv you can hear the footsteps running right beside you, vehicles coming at you from behind and the faintest of sounds like a bird in a tree. or the rustling of the leaves in the distance.
INVOLVE SURROUND
Involve Surround takes your music, films and other audio tracks, listens to them in real-time and sends them out in Surround sound to the speakers in the direction they were originally recorded from. This means that you hear the sounds individually like you would if you were listening to them live. Normally sounds are all bunched up into stereo; all the instruments, voices and sound effects are grouped together into 2 tracks which go to the left and right speakers. Because of this you lose many less dominant sounds and voices as they are overpowered by the more dominant sounds.
SWEET SPOT TECHNOLOGY
No longer is there a race for the perfect seating position. Involve Audio’s Sweet Spot Technology allows you to listen to a full, rich and accurate sound stage wherever you are sitting. This translates across all sizes, from your living room to a full blown cinema.
Because of the way sound waves are projected from normal speakers, only the person sitting in the centre of the room hears a balance of all the sounds (the sweet spot). Sitters to the left and right of the room will hear more of some sounds and less of others depending on their position to the speakers. The Y4 Creates a stable, holographic audio image so that every person in the room is in the “Sweet spot”.
Y Speakers
For 80 years the concept of the electrostatic speaker that has no magnets, coils and heavy cones was a distant dream of the audiophile but somehow never achievable due to difficulties in manufacture, high cost, low output and huge size.
The team at Involve Audio have refined the electrostatic speaker and produced a bookshelf sized, lightweight, low cost, ultra low distortion, high output, semi “see through”, 5 mm thick speaker. A feature of the technology is virtually zero box resonance and colouration.
Involve Sonic Woofer
The Y Speakers require an equally powerful, detail rich, smooth and transient woofer to match.
The discreet design of our Sonic Woofers allow them to blend into your room while providing the most liquid of bass responses. Their dual internal woofer design gives them a fast response with high stability. Two woofers per Y4 system gives verisatility and enough kick to match your room.

We’ve had the privilege of having the first Y4 set up at home.
Yesterday I had a Dark Side of The Moon session and WOOHOO it is amazing! The clarity, hearing sounds I’d vaguely heard clearly for the first time in literally decades of listening, the sweet spot anywhere in our lounge, the surround depth was/ is inspiring, moving and wonderful.

I’m 50 and have always loved listening to everything, but have never heard content with the quality and accuracy of the Y4. I do remember the surround sound tech of the 80s and its requirement to sit in the centre of the room. With this tech the music is suddenly everywhere, the same experience six inches from the speakers as it is 20 feet away, or behind them. I’ve been listening to old tracks and getting blown away by how much music goes missing in the stereo format. This amazing tech fixes all that. Thoroughly recommend for anyone who wants the ultimate experience in listening.

Wow!
Heard sounds in various artists’ recordings that I didn’t realise were even there.
Amazing clarity and sound quality!
This is how musicians wanted you to hear their music 🎶
Highly recommend this system 😁

Had the luck to listen to the Y4 last week. Incredible sound and something I’ve never experienced before. Could hear the layering of the instruments fluently and straight up blew me away. Definitely recommended The Y4 and very excited to see these shake up the industry.
