Introducing

A Reference That Scales.

The Black Crown Reference Stack

Start with the Black Crown Bookshelf for a natural, low-fatigue reference sound designed for real rooms. When you're ready for deeper bass, greater scale, and effortless dynamics, add the Reference Stack Modules.

The voicing never changes-- it simply expands.

Time-aligned, phase-coherent, and engineered for long listening sessions at real-world levels.

Life Resistant. Really.

Black Crown has beaten knock-overs, and kept playing through the chaos.

Tough composite materials shrug off drops

Rigid grille fabric keeps tiny fingers out-- and your sound safe.

Unshakable coherence and imaging

Thanks to waveguides and physical time alignment, the Black Crown maintains coherence at all levels. Adjust to club volume (105db) or lower it for quiet hours (55db), these speakers excel in every mode.

Built For Living Rooms, Not labs.

Graph 1: Black Crown Reference Stack playing at 96dB avg @ 8ft, measured from listening seat.

The Black Crown is specifically designed to perform well in untreated, communal spaces-- like living rooms or family rooms.

Top graph: Red line is accumulated peaks, yellow line is live snapshot. We can see usable extension down to 35hz with the speakers 1.5ft from the wall.

Bottom Graph: Spectrogram shows tight bass with short and quick decay, even at high volume (96dB @ 8ft.). Just enough fullness to add character, but response is still tight.
