GoldenEar T66 Floorstanding Loudspeakers With Active Sub Bass - Santa Barbara Red Finish - Pair

These are our Ex-Demonstration pair of GoldenEar T66 floorstanding loudspeakers in Santa Barbara Red Finish. These are in as new condition, the grills have never been removed and they have not left out showroom. They have sat at the end of our showroom in the same place since they arrived.

They have had very low use as were only put on when customers asked to hear them so we would say that they are not even run in yet. The finish is very luxurious and will look good in any room.

Comes with all original packaging and accessories.

Comes with 12 Months Warranty.

The GoldenEar Voice

If an audio product were perfect, it would have no sound of its own. It would be invisible. It would have no “voice.” In the real world, DACs, amplifiers, turntables, and especially the transducers — microphones, phono cartridges, and loudspeakers — all have distinct sonic characters.

A competently finessed “voice” comes from consciously managing the sonic effect of every design decision and every part, and then coordinating the combined effect of all those many little imperfections into a whole, creating a voice with as little overt character as possible. At least, that’s the objective for all GoldenEar loudspeakers.

Introducing T66 - Red is the new Black

T66 Tower Speaker with Powered Bass

The T66 is the first model in GoldenEar’s new T Series. While it boasts several significant refinements of our time-tested design concepts, the T66 is undeniably a GoldenEar loudspeaker, placing beautiful sound and music before all else.

Honoring the Triton Series

The T66 honors the critically acclaimed Triton Series, sharing a similarly tall, slender profile; built-in DSP-controlled subwoofer amplification; and a driver complement comprising GoldenEar’s High-Velocity Folded Ribbon AMT tweeter, cast-basket mid/bass units, quadratic planar radiators, and long-throw powered sub-bass section.

Onward and Upward

Several important cosmetic and sonic refinements distinguish the new T66 from previous GoldenEar speakers. These include a dramatically augmented crossover design, high-quality internal wiring, a new cast-aluminum base and metal grille, and, in addition to GoldenEar’s Gloss Black cabinet finish, a vibrant Santa Barbara Red.

Elegant Cabinet

Designed for performance and beauty, the T66’s tall, slender cabinet contributes to the speaker’s holographic imaging and is proportionately the strongest cabinet GoldenEar has ever made.

High-Velocity Folded Ribbon (HVFR™) Tweeter

Rather than pushing air like a traditional tweeter, an HVFR tweeter propagates soundwaves and moves the air by squeezing it with its accordion-like pleated diaphragm. Its efficiency, low mass, and large radiating area ensure lower distortion than other tweeter designs in its price range. 

These HVFR tweeters attributes contribute greatly to GoldenEar’s effortless sound and 3D imaging. The T66, Triton Reference, One.R, and BRX (Bookshelf Reference X) use a “Reference” version of this tweeter with a larger magnet structure for greater efficiency, control, and lower distortion.

High-Definition Cast-Basket/MVPP Midrange/Bass Drivers

For this crucial frequency range, nearly all GoldenEar speakers employ open but ultra-rigid cast-basket bass/midrange drivers, often in a D’Appolito array. A Multi-Vaned Phase Plug (MVPP) creates a single radiating surface for a more linear or even response. 

This technology contributes greatly to the uncoloured sound that is so essential to GoldenEar’s voice.

Quadratic Bass Drivers

With their relatively long, narrow shape, these bass drivers are designed to maximize the cone surface area of GoldenEar’s slim and attractive enclosures, which diminish unwanted signal reflections, smearing, and cabinet resonances. When coupled to the built-in amplification used in T66, Triton's Three+, Two+, One.R, and Reference, these Long-Throw drivers produce powerful but nuanced bass. 

This highly efficient ampdriver combination also allows even modest audio/video receivers to achieve performance far beyond their rated power output.

Quadratic and Planar Bass Radiators

Passive radiators are a more sophisticated and costlier alternative to ported designs. GoldenEar`s approach increases the volume of air the bass drivers “see” in the cabinet while greatly minimizing any negative effects and/or stresses within the speaker cabinet itself. Further, when ported woofers are subjected to demanding home-theatre material, they can produce an unpleasant “chuffing” sound. This can’t happen with a passive radiator — there’s no pipe to whistle through.

With GoldenEar’s Quadratic and Planar Bass Radiator technology, the result is bigger, more muscular bass with fewer artifacts and more nuance.
