Tobian Sound Systems 10 Signature Horn Speaker

Music reproduction from our Horn speakers possesses a bouncy lightness and intense emotionality that makes you lose all sense of time. Or as a guest in our listening room recently put it: "A planned half hour turned into a whole night of music fun! You completely forget about the technology and listen to nothing but music".

Our horn is a very special development to meet our requirements. During the design process, we excluded various materials such as plastic or wood from the outset for reasons of sound, we were left with a precisely defined construction. The horn is made of a special aluminum alloy and is drawn and shaped by hand from a single piece. The material thickness is also precisely defined as the horn only rests against the enclosure at one point for resonance reasons.

As you can see from our speaker specifications, we use large compression drivers from 4.0 inches for our 10 Signature and 12 Signature. The requirements for these drivers are particularly high, as frequency response and resonance require special attention, which we master through a special vaporization of wafer-thin shellac. Using these unique, exceptional drivers results in a very special reproduction of the music.

It has long been known that a horn provides the most efficient transfer of acoustic energy to the air. It is also known that a properly designed horn-type loudspeaker exhibits lower distortion, greater linearity, and more natural-sounding reproduction than other types of loudspeaker systems. Bass Horns are also able to reproduce the dynamics of any given program material with stunning realism and minimum effort. Our specially designed bass horn utilizes 4 different types of wood and has the incredible ability to deliver the tiniest dynamic changes and transparency completely independent of music style and volume. This speaker can recreate the emotions that are usually only experienced during live music events.
