StormAudio Launches Core 16+ Compact Immersive Audio Processor

Introducing the Contour 20, a compact marvel that encapsulates everything we know about speaker design. This speaker redefines what it means to be compact, combining a clean aesthetic with outstanding sound quality. It’s not just another small speaker; it’s a testament to our commitment to audio excellence.

Compact Size, Big Sound

When we say “compact,” we don’t mean “compact-sounding.” The Contour 20 is a standmount speaker that leverages advanced speaker technology to deliver an impressive auditory experience. Designed by the renowned Danish audio experts at Dynaudio, the Contour 20 is a culmination of years of research and expertise, promising a sound that belies its size.

Legendary Tweeter: The Esotar2

At the heart of the Contour 20 is the acclaimed Esotar2 soft-dome tweeter, which has earned its place as one of the best drivers in the world. This sweet-toned tweeter has been a staple in high-quality audio for years, and its inclusion in the Contour 20 ensures that listeners will enjoy the same level of clarity and richness that has made it a favorite among audiophiles.

Innovative Woofer Design

The Contour 20 features an original, extended-excursion 18cm woofer designed by a team of experts led by Danny Pasfall Christensen and Andreas Eberhardt Sørensen, under the guidance of acoustic maestro Daniel Emonts. This woofer utilizes a lightweight aluminum voice coil and a vented dual-ferrite magnet system, resulting in a driver that delivers powerful sound without sacrificing finesse.

Crafted from our proprietary MSP (Magnesium Silicate Polymer) material, this woofer strikes the perfect balance between stiffness and damping. This unique material has been a staple in our drivers since 1985, providing the power, finesse, and control that are hallmarks of Contour speakers. Furthermore, we’ve innovated by varying the diaphragm’s thickness, enhancing sound control even further.

Signature Baffle Design

No Contour speaker would be complete without its signature baffle, a fundamental component that enhances both aesthetics and acoustics. The new aluminum baffle is integrated into the cabinet, featuring a chamfer that not only looks stylish but also minimizes high-frequency diffraction effects. This design choice results in clearer treble and provides a sturdy foundation for the drivers, improving high-volume performance at low frequencies though your neighbors may not be thrilled!

A Nod to Tradition with Modern Enhancements

While we have updated the cabinet shape favoring curves over squares the design pays homage to our legacy. Viewed from above, you can see the influence of older Contours in the shape of the baffle. However, this updated design merges classic aesthetics with cutting-edge acoustic science. The multi-layered construction is meticulously damped, directing sound where it belongs: forward.

Redesigned Internal Components for Superior Sound

We haven’t stopped at just the exterior. The internal wiring and crossover have also been meticulously redesigned. While you won’t see these enhancements, you will hear the difference: the Contour 20 offers astonishingly clear sound, even when listening from the sides.

I made short movies with my stuffed animals as a kid, since then I knew from a young age I wanted to be a videographer. My parents always said I had a great eye for video/photo, so I made my job out of it. Now I make professional corporate video's. I love to learn all about new gadgets and electronics that come to the market, that's why I write/edit for "Best Of High End".
