<\/p>\nThe Canadian company\u00a0Totem Acoustic\u00a0has introduced a new series of acoustic systems\u00a0Bison\u00a0, which so far includes three models – bookshelf\u00a0Bison\u00a0Monitor\u00a0and two floor –\u00a0Bison\u00a0Tower\u00a0and\u00a0Bison\u00a0Twin\u00a0Tower\u00a0.\u00a0The manufacturer assures that over time this series of acoustics will be replenished.<\/p>\n
All three new products use a brand new tweeter with a fabric dome with a diameter of 1.3 inches and a powerful neodymium magnet system.\u00a0Its operating range extends up to 30 kHz, and the lower limit is quite low – at the level of 2.5 kHz.<\/p>\n
The Bison series speaker cabinets are characterized by increased rigidity due to the internal bracing system and the original design of the lock at the panel junction, which provides a large contact area when gluing.\u00a0The Variable Density Fibreboard (VDF) used for the Bison series cabinets is 90% density on the outside and 65% on the inside.\u00a0If a dense outer layer helps maintain shape, then a less dense inner layer is acoustically preferable.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Totem Bison Monitor is a two-way bookshelf model equipped with a brand new 5.75″ long-throw cone woofer with a 3″ bass-reflex voice coil.\u00a0The nominal impedance of the speaker is 8 ohms with a sensitivity of 87 dB. The crossover is tuned to 2.5 kHz and uses first order filters.\u00a0The operating range extends from 40 Hz to 29.5 kHz (\u00b1 3 dB).<\/p>\n
The floor model Totem Bison Tower is also made in a two-strip concept.\u00a0But for the mid\/bass range, a speaker with a cone with a diameter of 5.75 inches is responsible here, but this is a different radiator compared to that used in the shelf model.\u00a0The nominal impedance of the speakers is 8 ohms with a sensitivity of 88 dB.\u00a0The band separation frequency is the same as for bookshelves – 2.5 kHz.\u00a0The crossover uses first order filters.\u00a0The floor model plays from 33 Hz to 30 kHz (\u00b1 3 dB).<\/p>\n
The older floor-standing model Totem Bison Twin Tower is also two-way, but the lower part of the frequency range is served by a pair of 5.75-inch woofers – the same as in the Bison Tower model.\u00a0At the same time, the characteristics of the speakers are different – the nominal impedance is 4 ohms with a sensitivity of 90 dB.\u00a0The crossover uses second-order filters, the crossover frequency is the same – 2.5 kHz.\u00a0The operating range of the older floor model extends from 31 Hz to 29.5 kHz (\u00b1 3 dB).<\/p>\n

All three models of the new\u00a0Bison\u00a0series are available in three finishes:\u00a0White Oak<\/i>\u00a0,\u00a0Black Ash<\/i>\u00a0or\u00a0Satin White<\/i>\u00a0.\u00a0The kit comes with protective grills on magnetic mounts.\u00a0The Totem Bison Monitor\u00a0shelf model has a suggested retail price\u00a0of\u00a0$2,500\u00a0.\u00a0The junior Bison Tower\u00a0floorstanders\u00a0are available for\u00a0$3,500\u00a0, while the top-of-the-line\u00a0Totem Bison Twin Tower\u00a0is\u00a0$4,500\u00a0.<\/p>\n
