Description

HTM6 S3

The HTM6 S3 is small enough to fit into convenient spaces in your home but mighty enough to partner with the 603 S3 tower speaker. It combines our all-new Titanium Dome™ tweeter with the powerful accuracy and transparency of twin Continuum™ bass/midrange cones. Celebrate clarity with the HTM6 S3 center channel speaker.

Layered, beautiful details

The new HTM6 S3 introduces our all-new Titanium Dome tweeter, which combines exceptional resolution and insight with smooth, refined high-frequency reproduction. The result? An accurate and immersive insight into your favorite music.

Truly amazing sound

HTM6 S3 introduces our new and even more acoustically transparent tweeter grille mesh, first developed for our revered Signature models. Alongside the new Titanium Dome tweeter, the resolution and realism are exceptional.

Precision and transparency

Thanks to its composite construction, the Continuum cone avoids the abrupt transitions in behavior that can impair the performance of a conventional drive unit. With HTM6 S3, experience a more open, neutral performance that delivers voices and instruments with precision and transparency.

Upgraded speaker terminals

Derived from those recently introduced in our 700 Series range, the speaker terminals on the new HTM6 S3 feature an improved layout and a cleaner signal path between your amplifier and your loudspeakers.
