Our New Canton Forum is Open!

I have the last one.

They only made 100 pairs and my serial is 100/100
It will be like two weeks when they arrive at my house

I bet they will be awesome! Congratulations Nelson.

Finally Master Lu granted Canton a place in the prestige AudioAficionado forum. I was a big fan of Canton loudspeakers and I still have a pair of the Ergo 1002 DC in Cherry finish in my bedroom. In my opinion, Canton is way under appreciated in the US market. Eventhough I now have the Sonus Faber Cremona as my main listening room. I will keep the Canton forever.

Thedo,
And Canton is here to stay !!!
With many Excellent promotions on the days to follow
Exclusively on AA only.

My pleasure! :tiphat:

The reference line has been of interest to me for some time but unfortunately there is no dealer close to where I live to give them a listen.

Canton Fan!
 

Another Canton fan here! I fell in love with my Canton Vento 830.2's and after trying a half dozen or so full range floor standers, I found myself continuing to come back to the Canton's. So about a month and a half ago, I decided to go for the Canton floor standers and ordered a pair of Canton Reference 7.2 DC's. Unfortunately FedEx destroyed them enroute. I just found out that the dealer can't get them replaced so back to the drawing board I go. At least I still have these to listen to :D

Welcome to AA, beautiful setup.

Thanks, Ivan and David - glad to be here :D

David - where are you in India? I spent a week there back in June in Bangalore - the weather was beautiful and the culture was so nice!

Sorry, this is getting too far off the Canton topic :)

Wow, nice to know. I am in place called Chennai, very conservative and very core culture wise. Wish we had known before in this forum, I'd have invited you to my home.

Hey! Nice system!

Thanks, Byron - nice to see you - let's see your Cherry Vento's :D

Ivan: would it be possible to post a retail price list here in the sticky? Thanks!

Roni - you must be an AudioAficionado "Subscriber" in order to post pic's or make use of the no-cost Marketplace.

Brian... Canton does not have a retail price sheet, sorry.

Thought I'd say Hello. I'm a proud owner of a pair of Vento 890.2 DC's. I purchased these nearly five years ago around the same time this forum started and have been a frequent lurker here since then. To me these speakers create sonic bliss, sublime sound. I'm extremely happy with my system.

The rest consist of a Bryston 4b3, BP25 and Teac PD-H600 CDP with Blue Jeans in between.

Most excellent. Welcome to the forum.

Objective Canton owners - the mrs accidentally damaged my forever speakers so with that currency I re-entered the speaker rabbit hole. I'm a used speaker (deal) buyer and there are few speakers that are a better used value than canton (from what I've read). A bonus for buying but not for selling which is why i want to exercise some caution. I've gone through a battery of speakers on this journey, goldenear triton 2, ML 60xt, Zu essence, dyn s3.4. The dyns are the clear winner though there is something engaging to me about the martin logans just hate that they're so ubiquitous. I've read a bunch of Dynaudio Contour and Canton Vento comparisons and from my memory people (Europeans) seem to prefer the cantons. I've found 2 lcr packages for sale Canton 809DC+805c $1000 and Canton 890.2DC + 856.2C $2200. I feel the 809 is the far better/safer deal. Is the 890.2 package $1200 better? Or am I just chasing the dragon and should just be content with the Dyn Contour s3.4? They just seem a little laid back for me, though keep in my the 3 other speakers I've had in this house are ribbon tweeters. Time could be on my side with re: to the dyns. Thanks

Duke777. Become a subscriber to AAf and talk to Ivan about Canton speakers. He is a dealer and members here get his terrific pricing. Read some of the reviews on the Canton Reference line (including mine) and you may want to give them some serious thought.

Duke777, I think Glenn and I are on the same page here. Canton's are beautiful sounding speakers. Talk to Ivan first, before you make any firm decisions. It can't hurt.

Hello fellow AAs. I'm new in this forum. I have always found Canton an attractive speaker; however, it seems to me that Canton does not have small high efficiency speakers of 93db or more. I wonder how good it would be to drive a Canton speaker with a low power, 7 watt, class A, SET tube amp?

I was very pleased with my Ref 9K being pushed with 20wpc of Class A push-pull tubes. The Ref 8K, 7K & 5K are slightly more efficient (88 & 89db vs 87db with the 9K). 7wpc might work in a small space at low volume.

Hi Glenn, thanks for your feedback. I want to build up a good sound system around a small SET tube amp, probably a DecWare or an Inspire 300B-v. I've been looking for suitable speakers for those types of amps; Klipsch Heritage and Zu Audio, but for some reason I always end up looking for a Canton. I guess it's because it's an attractive speaker. My living room is 12'x16'...14' high ceiling.
