{"product_id":"canton-gle-90-s2-standlautsprecher-makassar","title":"Canton GLE 90 S2 Floorstanding Speaker, Makassar (Pair)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Canton GLE 90 S2 is the 3-way floorstanding speaker at the top of the GLE series – Canton's audience favourite for anyone who wants a lot of floorstanding sound at a fair price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo newly developed 192 mm ATB woofers, a dedicated 174 mm midrange driver and the new 25 mm AB tweeter with waveguide form a cleanly matched three-way system – powerful in the bass, clear on vocals, open in the highs up to 40,000 Hz. Just 21 cm wide, supplied as a pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Canton GLE 90 S2?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it has set the benchmark in the price-performance segment for years – and the S2 generation raises it further. The new ATB drivers (Aluminum Titanium Black) deliver bass with punch and control, the dedicated midrange driver keeps vocals present and separate from the bass, and the new tweeter with waveguide stays clean even when you're not sitting exactly in the sweet spot. With a sensitivity of 90.5 dB and 4–8 ohms, it's uncomplicated: a normal stereo amplifier is enough to make it sing, without any power-amp debates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-way bass reflex with rear-firing port (backfire)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2× 192 mm ATB woofers for punchy, controlled bass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1× 174 mm ATB midrange driver – a genuine, dedicated midrange for clear vocals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e25 mm AB tweeter with waveguide, brilliant highs up to 40,000 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20–40,000 Hz, 90.5 dB sensitivity – easy to drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNominal\/music power handling 150 \/ 320 W, impedance 4–8 Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eslim 21 cm front, oval magnetic fabric cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003esupplied as a pair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Canton GLE 90 S2 suited to?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStraight talk: in small to large living rooms, the GLE 90 S2 is the all-rounder that honestly delivers a lot for the money – for stereo just as much as for home cinema. If you're after that last degree of resolution, look towards the Townus or Vento instead; if you only have a square metre of floor space, a compact or bookshelf speaker is the better choice. For everyone else: it's rare to find this much full-grown floorstanding speaker at this price – without blowing your living room or your budget.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA floorstanding speaker that delivers instead of just promising: grown-up three-way sound, easy to drive, fair in price. The trade press agrees – i-fidelity.net tested it in 10\/2025 and awarded its \"Preistipp\" (value award), and Lite-Magazin scored it 85 out of 85 points in 12\/2025. At HD Zürisee in Wädenswil, we'll tell you honestly whether the 90 suits your room or whether a smaller GLE as a set is the smarter choice, and match the amplifier and placement accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data – Canton GLE 90 S2\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Floorstanding speaker (flagship of the GLE series)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAcoustic principle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3-way bass reflex (backfire port)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWoofers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2× 192 mm Aluminum Titanium Black (ATB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMidrange driver:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1× 174 mm Aluminum Titanium Black (ATB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTweeter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 mm aluminium black dome with waveguide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20–40,000 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrossover frequencies:\u003c\/strong\u003e 300 \/ 3,200 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSensitivity (2.83 V\/1 m):\u003c\/strong\u003e 90.5 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal\/music power handling:\u003c\/strong\u003e 150 \/ 320 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4–8 Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection:\u003c\/strong\u003e screw terminals, banana-plug compatible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Makassar (wood décor)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W×H×D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 21 × 105 × 30 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 19.6 kg per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScope of delivery:\u003c\/strong\u003e pair of GLE 90 S2 in Makassar, oval magnetic fabric covers, instruction manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the Canton GLE 90 S2 supplied as a pair?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the listed price is for two floorstanding speakers – a complete stereo pair. You get both cabinets, each with an oval magnetic fabric cover and instruction manual, and can get started right away. So you don't have to order twice, and you have a complete stereo set at home immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat room size suits the GLE 90 S2?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt feels at home in small to large living rooms, roughly 15 to over 35 m². Thanks to its powerful three-way design, it fills larger rooms with ease; in very small rooms, a GLE 70 S2 or a bookshelf speaker may be the more balanced choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the GLE 90 S2 need a particularly powerful amplifier?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. With 90.5 dB sensitivity and 4–8 ohms, it's easy to drive and becomes loud and dynamic even with moderate amplifier power. A solid stereo or AV amplifier is enough; more power doesn't hurt but isn't essential. We'll help you find the right match together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the GLE 90 S2 suitable for home cinema?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, very much so. It combines seamlessly with the GLE S2 series – for example the GLE 50 S2 as a centre, the GLE 30 S2 as surrounds, and a Power Sub for depth. With the Canton Smart Amp 5.1, it even becomes a wireless home cinema without a classic AV receiver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Canton GLE 90 S2 at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause since 1997 we've known which speakers prove themselves in everyday use – and the GLE series is one of them.
