every type of music from rock to opera, jazz through folk. They have quite a punchy low end for their size.
Drums and percussion are reproduced with stunning weight and clarity. Notice precise duration and fine
separation between tones compared to overlapping and ‘lingering’ tones reproduced by most of traditional
multi-driver designs – regardless of their size or price range. You will find Magus speakers amazing – very
neutral, yet extremely clear and articulate.
Designed & handcrafted to endure the test of time
Form follows function and our enclosures are very attractive, sculpture-like shapes – a welcome addition to
any room. Any way you consider them – as a piece of art that sounds great or great sounding speakers in an
eye pleasing package, Magus monitors are built entirely by hand to highest standards using the finest materials
available. High gloss finish, applied in several layers of highest-quality Italian varnish, enhances the natural
wood veneer and superb craftsmanship that one may expect from the finest cabinet makers and in speakers
costing thousands more.
Designed like the finest music instrument, such as violin or cello, Magus’ elegant cabinet is specially shaped and
wall damped, ensuring that its internal structure resonates, vibrates and breathes at low frequencies as do fine
musical instruments. Special internal wall-damping and the port tune frequency has been adjusted accordingly
for optimal bass performance. The Magus cabinet may look deceptively simple but requires careful
handcrafting, with unique oval shapes and several critically damped and acoustically tuned compartments
(chambers), partitions and screens brought together by the skillful hands of our cabinetmakers.
True high end speakers such as Teresonic, need top quality drive units. We use the top of the line DX-series of
legendary Lowther drivers, considered the Rolls-Royce of the speaker industry, that are hand-made by
Lowther-Voigt Ltd in England. They incorporate extremely powerful magnets and ultra-light paper cones,
leading to extraordinary efficiency, transient response, and low distortion. They are possessed of a stunning
sense of aliveness and vitality, and have a degree of sonic invisibility that is both seductive and addictive.
Many high-end speakers on the market will use standard wiring inside the box between drivers and connectors
in the back of the box. Not so with Teresonic speakers. They are equipped with the worlds best WBT
connectors and the same high-end Clarison cables inside the box that are offered to connect to your amplifier.
Matching speaker cables and wiring inside the box is also important to maintain the same sonic character in the
entire audio chain – from your amplifier to the speaker and the drive-unit.
