CANTON REFERENCE 5 PIANO BLACK - PAIR

Immerse yourself in a new era of sound with the Reference 5 and be inspired by the mid-sized floorstanding speakers. The perfectly formed design, in line with "Form Follows Function", makes no compromises. Thanks to the use of the latest technologies, they are rich in resolution and fun to play and deliver excellent sound. The Reference 5, like all Reference models, is manufactured in Germany with the utmost care and precision. This and the use of first-class materials and components guarantee reliable and long-lasting quality. The speakers shine with unbridled dynamics and an excellent soundstage - for a lively and natural sound for your music.

Modern technology

For the completely redesigned housings of the Reference series, round baffles were designed for the first time and were produced on a specially designed 5-axis CNC milling machine. The elaborately curved side walls, bottoms and covers ensure enormous stability and significantly reduced natural resonance behavior of the speaker housing. As a result, the Reference 5 delivers a very homogeneous radiation pattern and authentic musical gradation. The Reference 5 speakers feature two 174 mm BCT woofers with black ceramic tungsten cones. These work in perfect harmony with the large cabinet volume and the efficient bass guide system to deliver crisp bass tones and deep, rich bass. The BCT midrange driver of the same size, housed in its own housing, helps to create a natural, authentic sound with a finely resolved midrange. The sound spectrum is rounded off by the 25 mm BC tweeter with a black aluminum oxide ceramic membrane, which ensures detailed, smooth highs.

New membranes

The midrange and bass systems of all Reference speakers are characterised by their advanced BCT membranes. With the BCT membrane, 25% of the molecular structure of an aluminum cone is converted into a ceramic structure and refined with tungsten and additional metal particles. As a result, the membranes achieve a perfect ratio of stiffness to weight and become black on the front and back during the manufacturing process. In addition, the specially shaped black ceramic midrange cone in TCC technology stabilizes the membrane and reduces unwanted resonances. This results in precise and distortion-free reproduction. To optimize the sound, the Reference 5 uses our latest generation wave surround technology. This ensures uniform attack and decay behavior even at high volumes and large membrane deflections.

contact

The Reference 5 speakers are equipped with high-quality WBT nextgen™ connections and allow bi-wiring and bi-amping. These connections are the basis for excellent sound quality and offer long-term stable contact. If you do not want to use bi-wiring or bi-amping, high-quality hard gold-plated copper bridges are included. The Reference 5s feature controls for Canton's RC (Room Compensation) technology on the speaker terminal. With this level control, the sound pressure levels of the midrange and tweeters can be precisely adjusted in 1.5 decibel increments. This allows the speakers to be optimally adapted to your personal listening taste and room acoustics.

Refined appearance

The Reference 5 speaker housings impress with their best workmanship and elegant surfaces, which allow for perfect visual integration into any living environment. They are available in two versions: the piano black high-gloss lacquer version achieves an impressive depth effect thanks to the high number of twelve lacquer layers. Equally impressive is the silky matt finish of the white housing version, which gives your living spaces a discreetly elegant and noble look.
