{"product_id":"raidho-td4-2-standlautsprecher-schwarz","title":"Raidho TD4.2 Floorstanding Speaker – Black High Gloss (Pair)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Raidho TD4.2 is a passive 3-way floorstanding speaker in an MTM arrangement with a Raidho ribbon tweeter, two 13 cm Tantalum-Diamond midrange drivers and four 16.5 cm Tantalum-Diamond woofers, handmade in Denmark.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe TD4.2 is Raidho's first genuine MTM design: two midrange drivers sit symmetrically above and below the ribbon tweeter. Sounds like a detail, but it's the reason this 1.58-metre-tall column virtually disappears in the room – acoustically as well as visually, thanks to a front just 20 centimetres wide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy the TD4.2?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe MTM arrangement is the real trick. By framing the tweeter symmetrically with two identical midrange drivers, the TD4.2 focuses sound more tightly in the vertical plane – this produces a huge, holographic soundstage while making it surprisingly forgiving to set up. Below, four 16.5 cm Tantalum-Diamond drivers provide a foundation down to 25 Hz, without the slim column ever calling for a subwoofer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tweeter and diaphragms are pure Raidho DNA: the updated ribbon tweeter for open, bodiless treble, plus the multi-layer Tantalum-Diamond diaphragms for low distortion right down to the finest detail. Decoupling is via ceramic balls in the feet – no spikes needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA speaker that gets out of its own way. Thanks to the controlled dispersion of the MTM arrangement, voices and instruments stand detached and tangible in the room, with a depth you step into rather than simply hear. The four woofers layer a bass that goes effortlessly deep while staying fast. Whether the finest chamber music or huge dynamics – the TD4.2 portrays without interpreting, and stays completely composed even at high levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho is the TD4.2 suited for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor demanding listeners with a large room who want maximum imaging and depth in a visually understated column. Bottom line: the MTM arrangement makes setup more forgiving, but it can't work miracles – the TD4.2 needs space, distance from the wall and a stable, current-capable amplifier for its 6 ohms. In medium-sized rooms it's oversized; there, the TD3.2 or TD3.8 play more coherently.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe TD4.2 is the point where Raidho shifts from \"great speaker\" to \"disappearing speaker\": the MTM principle and the narrow front let the technology and cabinet step back behind the music. Anyone bringing the room, the system and the necessary budget gets one of the most convincing soundstage illusions in its class. Danish craftsmanship at reference level – with a price to match.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Passive 3-way floorstanding speaker (MTM arrangement)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTweeter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Raidho TD ribbon tweeter (planar magnetic, 11 µm foil)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMidrange:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 × 13 cm (5\") Raidho Tantalum-Diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWoofers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 × 16.5 cm (6.5\") Raidho Tantalum-Diamond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBass loading:\u003c\/strong\u003e bass reflex, rear port, impulse-optimised\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCrossover frequencies:\u003c\/strong\u003e 400 Hz and 2.4 kHz (staggered slope)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 Hz – 50 kHz (±3 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSensitivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 88 dB (2.83 V \/ 1 m)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNominal impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended amplifier power:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 – 300 watts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDecoupling:\u003c\/strong\u003e integrated ceramic ball foot decoupling (no spikes required)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinishes:\u003c\/strong\u003e High Gloss Black, Walnut veneer, or custom colour to order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W × H × D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 440 × 1585 × 600 mm (incl. feet); cabinet width 200 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 64 kg per speaker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 pair of Raidho TD4.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the MTM configuration give the TD4.2?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe MTM arrangement is Raidho's first genuine MTM design in the TD series: two midrange drivers frame the tweeter symmetrically. This focuses sound more tightly in the vertical plane, produces an especially large, holographic soundstage, and at the same time makes the TD4.2 more forgiving to set up than many speakers of its size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's the difference between the TD4.2 and the TD3.8?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe TD4.2 is Raidho's first genuine MTM design with a narrow front and four 16.5 cm woofers, while the TD3.8 has a more classic layout with two 20 cm drivers. The TD4.2 aims for maximum imaging and an unobtrusive look, the TD3.8 for raw command in a large room. Both are top-tier 3-way speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich amplifier suits the TD4.2?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA stable, current-capable amplifier with roughly 50 to 300 watts at 6 ohms. With 88 dB sensitivity it can be driven, but it only unfolds its full command with powerful, controlled power amplifiers. Whether high-quality solid-state or tube – we're happy to advise on the right match for your system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat room size suits the TD4.2?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLarge rooms. While the MTM arrangement makes setup more forgiving, its depth and soundstage need space and distance from the wall to unfold. In medium-sized rooms it's oversized – there, the TD3.2 or TD3.8 play more coherently.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes the TD4.2 need spikes or special placement?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, spikes aren't necessary. The TD4.2 stands decoupled on ceramic balls in the feet on a level, load-bearing surface. Distance from the wall and precise toe-in are important so the MTM soundstage holds together. We're happy to handle delivery and professional setup of the 64-kilo columns on site.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Raidho TD4.2 at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause a speaker of this class lives or dies by room, placement and system.
