Unique highlights

Industry leading translation

Trusting what you hear builds confidence, ensures better results and raises productivity. Amphion monitoring allows focusing on things that count which saves time and helps meet the ever tightening deadlines.

Pinpoint imaging

Due to their phase coherence and pinpoint imaging, Amphion monitors translate precisely to any playback device, as they allow you to correctly reproduce information in all planes including width, height, and depth.

DSP-free acoustic purity

Amphion’s advanced acoustic design minimizes electric clutter. Electrical purity allows harnessing the full power of latest signal processing devices, room-correction and other types of advanced software.

Fix that pothole

Reflex ports are the cheapest way to get bass out of the small cabinet. Using a carefully tuned passive radiator improves bass performance and energy transfer by loading the room more evenly and naturally.

For 25 years we have pushed the acoustic design in order to keep our products simple electrically. Simple signal path and seamless driver integration lead to maximum resolution and transparency and allow easy placement and ensured performance in any setting and room.

Waveguides offer multiple advantages as they improve driver integration and speaker performance in a room. Amphions proprietary 5th generation U/D/D (Uniformly Directive Diffusion) waveguide offers an elegant solution to common speaker building problems.

Every Amphion model delivers..

Point-source sound

Lowering the crossover point allows the speakers to operate in point-source manner. This leads to industry leading phase coherence and pinpoint imaging.

Unrivalled midrange clarity

Exceptional naturalness and purity makes listening a joy. The nuances of human voice and instruments are presented in their full glory.

Room-wide sweet spot

Thanks to even dispersion, enjoyment is not limited to a single seat. Everyone in the room can share the experience equally.

Low volume, high intensity

Easy to place and well-performing even under challenging acoustics. Clear and memorable even on lower listening volumes.

Time-aligned drivers

Timing properties between the various drivers are improved as the waveguide aligns the voice coils of the tweeter and the midwoofer.

Less is more

Pushing the acoustics leads to electrical simplicity. Advanced acoustic engineering simplifies the signal path, which increases resolution and transparency.

Measurements

Because all real control rooms have at least one surface (a floor) the speaker low end (below 100Hz) is measured in half free space. This gives a fairly accurate estimation of a very large control room, with the speaker placed far from back and side walls. As the room size decreases, the amount of bass increases, which means that the smaller speaker models are particularly well suited to smaller rooms which will support the bass response of the speaker. In other words, the plotted frequency response corresponds to the minimum amount of bass you can expect in any control room.
