Coda IV (1986-88)
This successful design was updated into the mark IV version in 1986 primarily with further refinements to the drive units and crossover network.
The formula was the same – a compact 2-way loudspeaker of medium efficiency, producing exceptional performance from such a small enclosure. Equally at home on a shelf or stand, free standing or against a wall it was easily accommodated into smaller modern homes. Many benefits usually reserved for more expensive esoteric loudspeakers are found in the Coda. Its sound was alive, dynamic and thoroughly musical. Midrange reproduction was coherent and detailed, with a degree of realism normally found in much larger and more complex designs.

The mark V version of the successful Coda loudspeaker was a special version for Richer Sounds in the UK.
