Totem Acoustic Bison Standmount - White Oak Finish - Pair

Totem Acoustic Bison Standmount - White Oak Finish - Pair

Totem Bison in White Oak.

Customer who purchased these asked if it was possible to have these swapped for another pair as due to light within his home tended to highlight the variation in colour tone on the front of one speaker. These are within tolerance so most people will take no notice.

Whilst inspecting them our customer noticed a very small (i mean small) just under the tweeter which as can be seen from a screw on the tweeter it is small!

Not used for longer than a day or two so a good time to purchase a set of these wonderful speakers at a reduced price and with full warranty.

Bison Monito - Defying All Expectations

The Totem Acoustic Bison Monitor redefines what performance can be expected from a bookshelf loudspeaker category by defying the visual expectations associated with such a small volume enclosure. Purposefully designed to engage the broadest music lover audience to date, the Totem Monitor Bison marries the signature Totem characteristics of enormous imaging, phase coherence, and remarkable bass response with broad amplifier compatibility and prodigious power handling.

Design Highlights:

• Custom engineered 134mm (5.25") Bass/Midrange drive unit

• Custom engineered 33mm (1.3") tweeter

• Handmade crossovers

• Artisan cabinet construction

• Magnetic Grilles

Customized Drive Units

Every single drive unit is completely unique to Totem Acoustic and proprietary in design, engineered by Totem and then manufactured to the strictest standards to meet our parameters by the finest drive unit suppliers in the world. In some cases, where the technology is beyond the capabilities of suppliers or is wished to be kept secret, Totem Acoustic can and will build their own driver units. Every drive unit exhibits phase linearity, speed, emotion, off axis natural presentation, and spatial articulation.

Handmade Crossovers

Totem Acoustic crossovers don’t require many parts because of the synergy between the customized drive units, but the components used within the crossover are  world class. Totem Acoustic crossovers aren’t built on PCB’s because the laminated conductive tracks can be weak and inconsistent.  Instead they are secured to a thin piece of fiberboard or insulated polymers and components are mechanically crimped together because it simply sounds better. When soldering is required WBT Silver Solder is used, the purest in the industry.

Artisan Cabinet Construction

Meticulously hand crafted for peak performance that lasts decades. Lock-Mitred assembly is an intricate woodworking procedure where edges physically interlock together. The resulting cabinet is up to 5 times stronger than conventional V Groove cabinets. Internal and external veneering resists warping, structurally fortifies, and ensures consistent peak performance. Industry unique Borosilicate damping manages dissipation, keeps the cabinet musically alive, and never deteriorates.  

Popular materials like poly fillers eventually decay, dramatically affecting the performance.  Variable Density Fibreboard is denser at the extremities than the interior to reduce repetitive nodes and resonances.

Binding Posts

Two sets of high conductivity gold plated connectors allow for traditional, bi-wire, or even bi-amplification options. They accommodate a variety of connection options such as bare wire, banana plugs, and spades.
