The well known speaker maker from Germany, Canton has announced immediate shipment of its flagship reference series 3.2 DC audiophile-grade loudspeakers. Like most German’s finest automobiles, the leading edge speakers and top of the line from Canton’s floor-standing unit doesn’t come cheap. Selling at $16,000 per pair, the full range speaker is targeting most discriminating ears of musicians, audiophiles and avid music lovers.
Canton’s latest speakers aren’t as discrete as Yamaha’s new YSP-3050, perhaps, but they’re likely to offer a whole lot more performance if you can stomach the extra room clutter. Saying that, Canton are certainly trying to minimize that too: the Chrono 501 has a new, low-profile design as well as pricing reduced by 30-percent over the company’s more expensive Ergo range.
Despite the cut, you still get Canton’s proprietary ADT-25 aluminum-manganese dome tweeter, as well as a 6-inch aluminum bass driver good for response as low as 40Hz. It’s available in black wood-grained finish with a gloss black front baffle and aluminum accents, or an all-silver finish.
