Canton – Vento 90 – 3 Way Bass Reflex Floorstanding Speakers (Pair)

Canton is proud to present our brand new speaker series “Townus”, with which they would like to appeal to all people for whom timeless design and high-quality appeal are important. In reference to the roots and the location of our company headquarters, in the middle of the Hessian Taunus, They have created the same sounding name Townus for the new loudspeaker models.

The newly created Townus series impresses with its timeless, elegant design and its high-quality materials – ideal for urban people who value design and quality. In the word creation Townus, Canton also refer to the connection between the modern and pulsating life in a town and the rather quiet and rural Taunus, where the creators of this timeless and modern speaker series have their origins.

Canton’s Townus 90 3-Way floor-standing speakers captivate with timeless elegance thanks to their discreetly elegant enclosures and fine surfaces. Harmonious proportions, rounded cabinet edges and the screwless integration of the drivers into the slim baffle make our Townus 90 a jewel in any living ambience. The rounded cabinet edges not only give the Townus 90 an elegant look – they also improve the sound dispersion of the speakers. Flawless surfaces in silk matte or high-gloss lacquers as well as fine real wood veneers with a perfect finish underline the premium claim of the new Townus speaker series. Further visual highlights are the high-quality aluminium rings of the loudspeaker chassis, which are manufactured using the Seamless Diamond Cut process, and the fabric panels, rounded at the corners, which adhere magnetically to the baffles. Last but not least, the beautifully shaped wooden base with four metal feet serves as a solid foundation for the slim floorstanding speakers. Hidden from the listener’s view, the large bass reflex port in the cabinet base extends the frequency response downwards. The downfire arrangement of the bass reflex port acoustically stimulates the room evenly – precise, deep bass without any tendency to boom is the desired result.

“The quality of workmanship as well as of the cabinet‘s inside and outside is outstanding for the price range. A look behind the scenes furthermore reveals that the team around lead developer Frank Göbl has once again done a great job. The technology found in it is largely derived from the considerably more expensive Vento product family.“

The solidly built cabinets of the Townus 90 3-Way floor-standing speakers are reinforced several times on the inside and equipped with high-quality internal cabling. Strategically placed damping material inside the cabinets and selected crossover components of the best quality optimise the sound of the speakers, which weigh about 24kg (52.9 lbs). The four drivers in the slim Townus 90 speakers are state of the art and provide the renowned good Canton sound. Three 174mm (6.85″) drivers, with titanium diaphragms, enable dynamic bass and detailed, powerful mids. Thanks to the bass drivers with stiff and low-distortion double cones and Wave Beading technology, the Townus 90 still play precisely and calmly even at high sound levels. In combination with our patented DC technology, the 174mm (6.85″) bass duo in the downfire bass reflex cabinet reproduces powerful and precise bass without the cones of the bass speakers deflecting uncontrollably at low tones. The tried-and-tested 25mm (0.98″) dome tweeter made of aluminium oxide ceramic shines with its detailed and accurate sound. A precisely calculated waveguide for ideal sound radiation and coupling optimises the speaker’s reproduction, up to 40 kilohertz.
