Canton Electronics Reference 3.2 DC SPECTACULAR REF SPEAKERS

These speakers are in flawless in appearance and performance. Shortly after acquiring them, I changed my entire system to tube gear and my choice in speakers changed as well. Shortly after I acquired them, after listening to them for a few months with my solid state amp, I placed these in clean storage for resale. Their sound was and is beautiful. The Canton Reference 3.2 DC deserves the highest accolades. It is both wide-range and transparent, and sounds great at almost any volume level likely to be used in the home. I would definitely recommend removal of the grille and also recommend them to those with sparsely decorated and/or acoustically harder rooms. It is also strikingly beautiful in construction and finish, and in the graceful simplicity of its design. It earns its name: a reference.
