Canton - Vento 816.2 - On-Wall / Bookshelf Speakers (Pair)

Along with the first-rate tweeter system made from ceramic and high-fidelity titanium membranes, the Vento .2 series also offers a new look with modern screw-free diamond-cut aluminum rings. In the bass areas, the large freestanding speakers boast a double cone membrane with a continuous surface, which works together with the larger cabinet size and a more powerful version of the curved form to give an even greater and more detailed sound.

The Vento 816.2 relies on the outstanding technical properties of Canton's newly developed drivers with titanium graphite diaphragms. Due to the matte shimmering titanium graphite diaphragms, the speakers are characterised by their restrained elegance. The drivers nestle seamlessly into the high-gloss lacquered baffles without any visible screw connections. The latest generation of wave surrounds, capable of particularly large excursions, ensure deep bass and high power handling. The new driver technology is based on the previous titanium drivers: their surface is treated in a complex chemical process and acoustically brought to a new level. The aim was to minimise the partial vibrations that damage the sound. With less weight, the new titanium graphite chassis are stiffer and have better damping. In addition, the new drivers work as perfect piston transducers and thus offer ideal conditions for reproducing acoustic signals with high fidelity.

The new cabinets not only look superb, they also have to meet Canton's high technical requirements. The revised design ensures that there is more interior volume available to tune the speakers with more bandwidth in the low frequency range. This gives the new Vento speakers an even more contoured and clean sound. On the other hand, the revised cabinet radii and the new basic shape ensure less sound interference from the cabinet itself. With a variety of cabinet finishes available, the modern and timelessly elegant Vento speaker models feel at home in many interior design styles. At the same time, the cabinets of the new Ventos meet the highest standards of workmanship. The premium speakers are available in white and black "high gloss" lacquers.

The speaker terminals in the new Ventos have been redesigned both visually and technically to ensure maximum conductivity. The solid screw terminals, in single or bi-wiring design depending on the Vento model, hold cable cross-sections of up to 10 mm² and offer the option of accommodating speaker cables with banana plugs or fork bridges. The upgraded terminals have a special high-quality and conductive material, with new terminals and a finer thread. As a result, Canton also achieves reference-worthy contacting in the Vento series for perfect sound development and long-term stable contact to connected amplifiers. The innovations of the Vento series continue with the high-quality fabric covers. The straight panels at the top and discreetly curved panels at the bottom provide an unobtrusive, calm appearance. Thanks to the flat design, the acoustically neutral fabric panels nestle harmoniously on the baffles. All our Vento speakers are equipped with inconspicuous black fabric covers that do not affect the sound of the premium speakers.
