Avantgarde Trio XD With 6 Basshorns

Welcome to the most exhilarating, uncompromised, consequent, natural and outstanding speaker system in the world, the Trio. The one and only Trio. The ultimate dream system with no contenders. Let´s face it: the Trio is unique. Unique in its artistic design. Unique in its craftsmanship. Unique in its State–of–the–Art technology. Unique in its condensed–to–the–max spherical horn architecture. And last but not least: unique in a performance that is impossible to describe, transporting the listener to places far beyond everyday commodities. World off. Music on.

Why is the Basshorn a high end myth? Why is its nature of response so explosive, precise natural and pure? Why is any other bass technology – even the most elaborate conventional designs – so dramatically outperformed? Just look at it and you know why! The Trio with Basshorns probably is the most beautiful speaker from Avantgarde Acoustic™. But in respect to its holistic technology it is for sure the most perfect speaker system. Designed for people with an obsessive passion for music – from people who esteem the exceptional.

Overview

The technical specifications speak for themselves: up to 1000 Watt amplifier power, 2 x 30cm pro-grade bass drivers, and a finely adjustable DSP equalizer. Per module, that is! Thus even in very spacious interiors, BASSHORN setups form a low frequency foundation for TRIO systems that is certainly among the most uncomprising available.

Add an elegant veneer surface (standard or customer specific), or optionally available mirror-shine horn flares (chrome or gold), and every BASSHORN XD configuration will become a truly individual statement - not least when configured as a 4-fold oder 6-fold BASSHORN stack!
