Canton – Smart Townus 8 – Wireless Floorstanding Speakers (Pair)

Canton is proud to present their brand new speaker series “Townus”, with which they hope to appeal to all people for whom timeless design and high-quality appeal are important. In reference to the roots and the location of Canton’s company headquarters, in the middle of the Hessian Taunus, they have created the same sounding name Townus for the new speaker 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, they also refer to the connection of the modern and pulsating life in a city and the rather quiet and rural Taunus, where the creators of this timeless and modern speaker series have their origin.

With the Smart Townus 8, Canton presents the newest member of their large Smart family. In the same design as the passive Townus models, the smart variant ensures enthusiasm with itsextensive equipment and the best technical ingredients. The Smart Townus 8 scores with its timeless elegance, superior build quality and, of course, its excellent sound characteristics. This makes the slim Smart Townus 8 floorstanding speakers the ideal playing partner for anyone looking for speakers that are visually understated, but sonically the measure of all things. The fully active Smart Townus 8 are equipped with powerful amplifiers that provide 350W of power to each floorstanding speaker. This eliminates the need for external power amplifiers and speaker cables. Simply set them up in the desired location, connect the power cable and feed player, and off you go with the listening fun in your home. The wireless signal transmission with 24-bit signal processing between the speakers ensures music playback of the highest quality.

Canton’s Smart Townus 8 makes it easy for you: You can connect whatever your Hi-Fi heart desires to the numerous inputs. For this purpose, analog connections in high-quality XLR and RCA versions are available, in addition to the digital variants in optical and coaxial design. A USB input with XMOS allows connection with computers and of course the Smart Townus 8 can stream music in the best quality wirelessly via Bluetooth with aptX. Canton includes a selection of cables so you can start playing music right away at home. Thanks to the smart features of the Smart Townus 8, you can expand the floorstanding speakers with additional Smart speakers from Canton – for example, with the compact Smart Townus 2. In this way, you can build a high-sounding home theater set in single-room operation or integrate your Smart Townus 8 as an excellent-sounding member in a multi-room system.

The elegant Smart Townus 8 impresses with excellent sound performance in all situations. To achieve this, Canton used two potent woofers with 154 mm double cones made of titanium in the optimally dimensioned cabinet volume. These woofer specialists are complemented by a 154 mm midrange driver and the finely resolving tweeter with 25 mm aluminum oxide ceramic and transmission front plate for outstanding dispersion characteristics. The quartet of speakers is powered by a precisely tuned Class D amplifier with 350W of power per speaker. Canton’s wave surround technology, the very solidly built cabinets with internal bracing and the strategically placed damping material keep sound damaging resonances away from these speakers. The screwless Diamond-Cut aluminum rings of the drivers used are not only a visual highlight – they also increase the stability of the tweeter, midrange and woofer.
