Wilson Benesch Odyssey Curve

With Technology drawn from Formula 1, Wilson Benesch continues to grow its shamelessly luxurious range of loudspeakers. The latest development is a new floor standing design. The Curve borrows much of its design elements from the fabulous A.C.T. loudspeaker but is available at almost half the price. In terms of height it is smaller than the diminutive two way Arc but remains capable of achieving 200 watt peak program.

The A.C.T. and the Curve are the most accurate loudspeakers that the company has ever released. (See measurement attached) The Structural elements are all drawn from engineering materials more commonly seen in advanced engineering systems and include advanced composite structures, steel, Neodymium Iron Boron Motors and unique polymer diaphragms. The structural integrity of the Curve is another benchmark and provides a clarity and precision that would be impossible to achieve with conventional loudspeaker materials technology.

The Tactic® drive unit is at the heart of the system and as it is common to all the Wilson Benesch designs makes this the ultimate solution for a compact Home Cinema solution where compromise is simply not acceptable.
