About
A sculptural audio piece for spaces where design matters as much as sound. The Brutalist Speaker from Transparent takes cues from mid‑century architecture and turns them into a monolithic, aluminum tower that looks and feels purposeful. Crafted from 70% post‑consumer recycled aluminum, its clean geometry and raw finish give off that gallery‑grade vibe without trying too hard.
Inside, you get a large acoustic chamber tuned to a 6.5 inch woofer and a bass reflex design that delivers low‑end that’s solid yet controlled. Two 3 inch tweeters sit at 90 degrees on elevated mounts, throwing detailed highs across the room. Place it in a corner and it uses wall reflections to widen the soundstage. Frequency response is rated at 32Hz to 20kHz at -6dB, which lines up with the confident, room‑filling performance you expect at this level.
Day to day, it’s straightforward: dual‑band Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth 5.2, and support for common audio codecs. The footprint stays minimal at 590 x 360 x 260 mm and 12 kg, so it reads like furniture, not tech. Power is universal, 100–240V AC.
If you like products that show their structure and don’t hide the engineering, this is a statement piece with real sonic chops.
