Brand
England· Founded in 1926
Founded in London in 1926 by Guy Fountain, and named for the tantalum-lead alloy of his first rectifier. Its defining invention is the Dual Concentric driver of 1947: the tweeter fires through the throat of the bass cone, so a two-way behaves as a single point source and the drivers cannot smear in time against each other. Speaker production moved to Coatbridge, Scotland in 1976, and the Prestige, Legacy and Super Gold Monitor cabinets were built there until Music Tribe, which bought the company in 2015, wound the plant down. The studio side keeps the same idea running: the active Gold monitors are Dual Concentrics for a control room, with the cheaper Reveal series beside them.
The catalog ranges from the Reveal 402 at 24.0 cm up to the Westminster Royal at 139.5 cm — compare any two side by side at true scale.
29 Models available in the curated catalog.
