Summoner SeriesMedium/large 3-way floorstanders

Summoner series floorstanders: A sample of models title image

The Summoners are medium to large 3-way floor speakers. They all have a dedicated midrange driver for wide dispersion and have exceptional clarity and controlled bass. Some of these models use special high end drivers, but all models have similar highly refined, smooth and unique high order series crossovers that give a very large, spacious and natural sound-stage. They are built with real American Oak in various colours and use quality parts. All have our new wave guide ultra-smooth dome tweeter as standard. The Summoner range are our most popular floorstanders.  All Summoners have especially deep and full bass that is not at all boomy (unlike most bass reflex designs used by other brands), but is very real and satisfying.  In fact, our customers often comment that they do not use their other brand subwoofer any more because the larger Summoners like the 1093 and 1293 models especially do a better job.  You will need a very good subwoofer to combine with these, like one of our models which all have the same type of unique hybrid Transmission Line design as our floorstanders.
