What do you get when you combine a world-class engineering team and cutting-edge R&D with unmatched economies of scale? Loudspeakers that deliver insanely high performance for a fraction of what you'd expect to spend. Introducing the Reference K Series from Canton-Germany's number one loudspeaker company. They boast incredibly innovative, advanced materials and technology to deliver value rarely seen among ultra-high performance loudspeakers.
The Canton engineering team was given a mission. Produce the finest full-range loudspeaker the company has ever built. They succeeded spectacularly incorporating a wealth of proprietary technology-from aluminum cones transformed into a ceramic structure and refined with tungsten particles to a new Bass-Guide® bass reflex system that allows the impact of distance from walls or corners to be greatly minimized. Topping it all off, an extraordinary, high gloss, piano finish surface that's applied and polished in a 12- stage process. Gorgeous.
