@bdp24 : I too have an Electron Kinectics Eagle 2A amp. |
CAMBER speakers I had them and were good performers at their pricepoint 30 years ago their top model were the studio monitors at the Canadian CBC national broadcasting network (TV, Radio ) . CAMBERs were another product of the research and testing conducted at the Canadian National Research Council. Canadian passive loudspeakers developed through the National Research Council (NRC) form one of the most important and influential families of scientifically‑engineered speakers in the world. The NRC’s anechoic chamber, double‑blind listening protocols, and psychoacoustic research—much of it shaped by Dr. Floyd Toole—created a uniquely Canadian design philosophy: flat midrange, smooth off‑axis response, and low distortion. 🇨🇦 some Core NRC‑Developed Canadian Loudspeaker Brands….think PSB Speakers (Paul Barton) — the original NRC partner Paradigm — NRC‑aligned R&D from the beginning
NOTE: these native CAMBERs were very different and totally distinct from the brief early stillborne REGA CAMBER marketing models that died an ignominious death thankfully. A concise lineage of how Rega‑branded Canadian speakers became Camber, and eventually Plateau Camber. 1. Origins: Edon Acoustics (Ottawa) — Rega’s Canadian Distributor • Camber began as Edon Acoustics, located in Ottawa. ---2. Transition: Rega Ends Canadian Rebranding → “Rega Camber” → “Camber” • When Rega UK established its own North American distribution, the Canadian-made Rega speakers could no longer use the Rega name. ---3. Camber as an Independent Canadian Loudspeaker Manufacturer • After the rebrand, Camber continued developing its own loudspeakers. ---4. Plateau Acquisition — “Plateau Camber” Era • Edon eventually sold the Camber brand to Plateau, the Canadian stand manufacturer. --- 5. End of Operations • Camber ceased speaker production roughly 15–20 years before the 2007 forum discussions (i.e., mid‑1990s to early 2000s).
