The main innovation of Totem Acoustic Tribe Tower Thunderbird is 6” Totem Torrent drivers with a multi-layer voice coil, improved magnet and optimized geometry, they guarantee an impressive bass response for such dimensions from 28 Hz and an extended midrange/high-frequency range up to 7 kHz. This design allows the dual driver circuit to operate without a crossover for improved phase accuracy (the two Torrent drivers are complemented by a proprietary 1.3” Totem tweeter that operates up to 29 kHz).
