{"title":"Home Cinema Speakers","description":"\u003cp\u003eHome cinema speakers are the individual boxes of a multichannel system: front, centre and surround speakers, a subwoofer for the bass foundation, and height or Atmos modules for three-dimensional sound. Together they form the sound field of a surround setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy dedicated home cinema speakers\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFilm lives on spatiality: voices from the centre, effects all around, pressure in your gut during the explosion. That's exactly what matched speakers deliver, which a soundbar can only hint at. The centre channel keeps dialogue clearly intelligible, the surrounds provide the envelope, the subwoofer the foundation – and Atmos channels bring the sound overhead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat matters\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA coherent set matters: front, centre and surrounds should match each other sonically, ideally from one series. The subwoofer is tuned to the room, placement to the seating position. At HD Zürisee in Wädenswil we put together a set that suits your room, budget and TV – and on request take care of placement, wiring and calibration on site.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho it's for – and straight talk\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who wants films and series as an experience and is willing to set up speakers for it.

Against a light wall and on light furniture, the flat bar becomes practically invisible – which particularly helps with the center, since it's the one speaker in the set that inevitably sits right in the field of view.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Forus Center?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it solves a problem many people can only name once it's gone: dialogue that gets lost in the noise. Two 4-inch paper cones and the 0.75-inch silk dome split the work at 3000 Hz, so the entire vocal range comes from one source, right below the picture. No more fumbling with the volume dial, no more reaching for subtitles on every late-night film.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA dedicated third channel with 86 dB sensitivity and 4-ohm impedance that any off-the-shelf AV receiver handles without trouble.

If dialogue is still hard to understand afterwards, raise the center manually by one to two decibels – that's usually enough. Many receivers also have a dialogue or voice mode that emphasises exactly this range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAt what height and orientation should the Forus Center go?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs close as possible to the centre of the picture, so directly below or above the TV. If it sits noticeably lower than your ears, tilt it slightly upward towards the seating position – a felt wedge under the front edge is enough. Let it stand freely, don't place it in an enclosed cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow deep does the Forus Center play, and do I need a subwoofer with it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt reaches down to 70 Hz. That's entirely sufficient for voices, but not for explosions and film scores. In a home cinema, the subwoofer takes over below that anyway, which the AV receiver usually crosses over at 80 Hz. So a subwoofer in the set is clearly recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the Forus Center supplied individually?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the center is sold as a single unit – unlike stereo pairs, which always come as two. In a 5.1 system you need exactly one. It weighs 4.3 kilograms; front cover and rubber feet are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Forus Center in White from HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the setup matters at least as much as the speaker itself.

It decodes Dolby Atmos itself, connects to the TV via HDMI eARC with a single cable, and plays as a 3.2.2 system with genuine up-firing channels. Only once you're planning a fully discrete multichannel setup with wired rears and multiple subwoofers does the classic AV receiver remain the better basis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the Pulse Cinema have genuine up-firing drivers?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. Bluesound specifies a 3.2.2 configuration for the Pulse Cinema with two upward-firing height channels – so the Atmos height is physically radiated, not just calculated. A total of 16 drivers work inside the enclosure. The smaller Cinema Mini, by contrast, virtualises the height via DSP.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat sound modes does the Pulse Cinema offer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree: Movie, Music and Late Night. Movie opens up the soundstage for watching films, Music stays closer to the stereo ideal, and Late Night tames level peaks and keeps dialogue intelligible when someone's asleep next door. You switch between them in the BluOS app or via the learned TV remote; no menu on the TV is needed for that.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo I need a streaming subscription for the Pulse Cinema?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. It runs at the TV without any subscription at all. You don't need one for listening to music either: internet radio, files from a NAS or USB stick, Bluetooth and AirPlay 2 cost nothing extra. You only add paid services like Qobuz, TIDAL or Spotify if you're already using them anyway.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Pulse Cinema become a genuine surround system?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWirelessly via BluOS. A PULSE SUB+ takes on the deep bass, and two PULSE M or PULSE FLEX units become genuine rear speakers. You handle the assignment in the app – no extra cable runs across the living room. Alternatively, you connect a wired subwoofer to the RCA output.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Bluesound Pulse Cinema from HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause a soundbar only shows what it can do in the right room.

Services like Qobuz, Tidal, Deezer or Spotify are an option, not a requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow big a room can the Keshi handle?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Keshi is built for small to medium rooms. Thanks to the wide dispersion of the spherical satellites and the automatic room correction in the subwoofer, it fills such rooms evenly without you having to hunt for a sweet spot. For large, open living areas we'd recommend The Pearl or The Pearl Akoya instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I connect my TV to the Keshi?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, via the optical S\/PDIF input. That routes the TV sound through the subwoofer and the two satellites without needing a soundbar. The Keshi has no HDMI ARC socket – so check whether your TV has an optical output. Alternatively, use the analogue 3.5 mm jack.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the Keshi work with Roon?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the Keshi is listed as Roon Ready with Roon Labs and appears in your Roon setup as its own zone. That lets you control it from the same library as your other devices. Without Roon you can use the Cabasse StreamCONTROL app, AirPlay 2 or Spotify Connect instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I later expand the Keshi into a multiroom system?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. Via the Cabasse StreamCONTROL app, the Keshi can be linked with additional Cabasse streaming speakers into a multi-zone system – different music in each room, or the same music everywhere. AirPlay 2 is also on board, so you can play multiple rooms at once from the Apple ecosystem too.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Cabasse The Pearl Keshi at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause we'll tell you whether the Keshi suits your room – and when a larger Pearl model would be the better choice.

The coaxial Dom55 mid\/tweeter sits in the satellite sphere, the 17 cm HELD woofer in the subwoofer goes down to 30 Hz.

The connection cables to the subwoofer are three metres long, and they practically disappear against a light-coloured wall. A calibration microphone is already built into the subwoofer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere's the best place to put the subwoofer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe spherical subwoofer is much less fussy about placement than a classic cube sub. A free position on the floor, not directly in a corner, is a good starting point. After that, CRCS room correction measures automatically via the microphone and evens out any excess. If in doubt, we'll plan the placement with you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the Keshi support Roon and MQA?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoon yes, MQA no. Roon Labs lists the Keshi as Roon Ready, so it appears as its own zone in your Roon library. Cabasse does not state MQA decoding for the Keshi.

Bottom line: if you just want to boost the TV sound a bit, you're buying way more than you need here. And if you already own a power amp you're attached to, you're paying twice for part of the Pearl Sub. But if you want a lot of music with very little visible gear, there's hardly anything more elegant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSubwoofer, power amp and streamer in one lacquered sphere – that sounds like a compromise, and surprisingly, it isn't one.

On the back are four speaker terminals for a passive stereo pair, supplied with 300 watts RMS per channel. The Sub handles bass, amplification and source playback in a single device – you need neither a separate power amp nor an additional streamer. Passive Cabasse satellites like the iO series are the obvious partner.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat analogue input does the Pearl Sub have?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA stereo RCA input. Unlike the smaller Pearl models, which the manual lists with a 3.5 mm jack, the Pearl Sub works with classic RCA sockets.

Via the optical input, the RCA input and the USB port you can feed it directly from a TV, CD player, phono preamp or a hard drive. Internet radio and music from your own network work too, without you having to subscribe to anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow deep does the Pearl Sub play?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCabasse states the frequency range as 14 to 180 Hz, without giving a measurement condition for it. That's thanks to a 25 cm woofer with up to 30 mm of linear excursion and 1000 watts of continuous power.

The CD 250.3 is a passive center speaker for home cinema and is connected via speaker cable to an AV receiver or a multi-channel power amp. It doesn't play discs itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat do I need a center speaker for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe center reproduces the dialogue in home cinema and anchors voices firmly in the middle of the picture. It's the most-demanded channel in a film.

In principle, it can be integrated as a center into any multi-channel setup.

At Canton, CD is short for Custom Design, the manufacturer's flat wall series, and has nothing to do with the Compact Disc. The CD 250.3 is the passive center for home cinema: it connects to the AV receiver, needs no power, and has no disc transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy does a center speaker pay off at all?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it carries the dialogue in a film and keeps voices anchored in the middle of the picture. The center is the most demanded channel in home cinema. Cut corners here and speech intelligibility suffers first – and that's exactly what decides relaxed viewing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow big is the Canton CD 250.3?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt measures 43 cm wide, 14 cm high and 10 cm deep, and weighs 3.5 kg. That lets it fit under most TVs. Since stand and wall mount are included, you can either place it or hang it above the screen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the center have to be from Canton if my front speakers are?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot necessarily, but it audibly helps. Within the CD series, tonal character and tuning match exactly, so voices move cleanly between channels. In mixed setups, we work with you to make sure the characters suit each other – which saves a lot of readjusting later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the Canton CD 250.3 delivered as a single unit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. A center is always needed singly, so we sell it individually. The box contains the speaker, the wall mount, the stand and the instruction manual. All you need in addition is a suitable speaker cable to the AV receiver or power amp. Several units are only needed in very large multi-channel systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Canton CD 250.3 from HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause with a center, the setup is almost as important as the speaker itself.

The 10 S2 is a 3-way bass reflex system whose four 79 mm aluminum woofers fire at an angle upward; two of them additionally carry the Atmos height channels and bounce the effects off the ceiling back to the sofa. Suddenly the helicopter sits above you instead of in front of you. In front of that work two 19 mm fabric tweeters and two 50 mm aluminum midrange drivers, a front-firing passive radiator handles the bass. Four Class D amplifier channels with a combined 300 watts of system power supply the energy. Three HDMI inputs accept players, the HDMI output supports eARC and thus pulls high-bitrate soundtracks back out of the TV too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first thing you notice is that voices come from the middle of the picture again instead of a gap behind the panel. Then comes the width: the stage clearly extends beyond the 99 centimeters of the housing. And then, when the soundtrack allows it, height is added – rain, rotors, church reverb. The 10 S2 treats music maturely, it doesn't sound thin even at room volume. The height plane is a reflection trick, not a ceiling install, you should know that. But it's a trick that works once the ceiling plays along.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Canton Smart Soundbar 10 S2 suitable for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlain talk: The 10 S2 is for you if you want real surround sound including a height plane under a large TV, without building speakers into the ceiling. It's not the right choice if your living room has a high sloped or wood ceiling, because then the height channels lack a reflection surface and the premium over the 9 S2 fizzles out. Honestly: measure your ceiling height before deciding. If you want to physically feel deep bass, plan for an additional subwoofer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 10 S2 pulls off the trick of getting a credible height plane out of a 6.4-centimeter-flat housing, while staying a single device instead of a cable jungle.

It goes down to 35 Hz, and without an additional subwoofer in the room. Dolby Atmos and DTS-HD are decoded, three HDMI inputs accept players, the HDMI output handles eARC.

The height information is computed rather than mirrored off the ceiling: the soundstage gets bigger and airier, but objects aren't pinpointed precisely above you.

The enclosure is sealed rather than bass-reflex-vented – the more honest design, because it doesn't pretend to have volume it doesn't have. SC technology keeps the driver within a safe range, the wireless connection runs on 5.8 GHz and thus far from the crowded 2.4 GHz band, with up to ten meters of range.

Underneath the lacquer, though, sits full-blown engineering: two titanium mid-woofers, a ceramic dome and a rear-firing bass-reflex resonator.

That's exactly why Canton doesn't skimp on drivers here: two 154 mm titanium diaphragms with wave surrounds handle the fundamental, while the 25 mm ceramic dome takes over from 3,000 Hz and renders up to 40,000 Hz. The second crossover sits at 400 Hz – that keeps male voices free of boominess. Down low, the 50 reaches to 30 Hz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbove all: calm. Dialogue stays put in the centre instead of drifting with every camera pan. Background conversations stay recognisable as such rather than getting lost in the effects mix.

If you only listen to pure stereo music, you don't need a centre channel – then that money is better invested in front speakers. And if you already have speakers from another range up front, expect an audible tonal mismatch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA centre channel that carries the Townus signature cleanly forward: intelligible, calm, and in white understated enough for the living room.

A centre channel should share the same tonal character as the front speakers, otherwise you get an audible break when the sound pans from left to right. Tell us what's up front, and we'll tell you honestly whether it matches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow deep does the Townus 50 play – do I also need a subwoofer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt reaches down to 30 Hz, which already delivers solid substance. For film sound with deep bass below that mark, a subwoofer is still worthwhile, since it relieves the centre channel.

The oval cover is included and simply placed on the front; there are no visible mounting holes in the veneer. Without the cover you see the titanium drivers, and the sonic differences are minimal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow much amplifier power does the Townus 50 need?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAround 85 watts of continuous power per channel is sensible; it briefly handles 140 watts of music power. Impedance is 4 to 8 ohms, which any decent AV receiver handles easily.

You need an AV receiver or AV amplifier that decodes Dolby Atmos and has two free amplifier channels for the height layer. In its setup, you select the speakers as Dolby Enabled Speakers so the reflection is calculated correctly. A plain stereo amplifier isn't enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the Townus AR 5 supplied singly or as a pair?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a pair. Canton sells the AR 5 as a speaker pair, so the sales and shipping unit is two speakers – a height layer consists of a left and a right channel anyway. Planning a 7.1.4 system with four height channels? You'll need two pairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat kind of ceiling does the AR 5 need for the effect to work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeally a flat, smooth, acoustically hard ceiling at normal room height, roughly 2.4 to 3 metres. Sloped ceilings, open galleries, wood panelling, or acoustic sails absorb or scatter the reflection and weaken the height effect. In such rooms, we'll check beforehand whether real in-ceiling speakers are the better solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Canton Townus AR 5 at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause Atmos in practice lives and dies by the room, the ceiling, and the seating position – and we've been setting that up in real living rooms for decades, not just on paper.

As a licensed Dolby Enabled Speaker, the AR 5 works with a 154 mm titanium woofer and a 25 mm ceramic dome in a sealed two-way enclosure. The radiation angle is chosen so the ceiling reflects the sound precisely back to your seat.

A thunderstorm passes over you instead of past you, churches and halls gain height, and dialogue stands more freely in the room because the reverb no longer sticks to one plane.

The 30 cm titanium driver with double-folded wave surround can swing widely without losing its shape.

Via the high-level inputs, you connect it in parallel to an integrated amplifier's speaker terminals.

Technically it's identical: a 165 mm woofer\/midrange with wood fibre cone and SMC magnet system, topped by a hybrid tweeter module made of a 29 mm fabric dome and a 17 × 45 mm ribbon.

The five speakers share SMC magnet technology and wood fibre cones, with the front and center also getting the hybrid tweeter made of a 29 mm fabric dome and a 17 × 45 mm ribbon. Effects then travel through the room without an audible seam. The active Sub E-12 F takes over below that with 170 watts of Class D power and a 12-inch long-throw aluminium driver, relieving the front speakers exactly where things would otherwise get tight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUp top, it stays neutral and unfussy. The Opticon MK2 tuning doesn't push itself forward, letting voices and instruments simply stand there; the Vokal MK2 keeps dialogue intelligible even while a city collapses next door. And then the subwoofer joins in: down to 28 Hz, up to 112 dB maximum level. That's no longer just bass – it's the part of the film you feel in your chest. Fortunately, you can also turn it down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the set suited to?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlain talk: the Sub E-12 F is a serious powerhouse. In a noise-sensitive older building, you won't make new friends with it once the level rises – deep bass doesn't stop at walls. The Opticon 6 MK2 also need room; from around 18–20 m² the balance is right. The five speakers run at 4 Ω and need a load-stable AV receiver, while the subwoofer needs only a power outlet and an RCA cable.
