Totem Acoustic KIN Architectural LCR

Fluently Ambidextrous Audio

It’s the principal speaker flanking the big screen and cranking out the main action. It’s the horizontally mounted speaker with pinpoint precision that brings vocals and actions to life with a biological accuracy.  It’s the KIN Architectural LCR.

Fit for any musical, cinematic or gaming genre, the KIN’s sound precision and full spectrum projection allows for a deeper emotional connection with the music. The KIN’s non-shifting image, on-or off-axis, stands clear and defined no matter where one stands in the room. It delivers an incomparable presence in the mid and high frequencies with a breathy and detailed musicality.

KIN LCR is equipped with interrelated proprietary Totem drivers like the jewel high-performance MHEX woofers, MAC passive radiators, and titanium infused tweeters. This level of engineering allows KIN LCR to present perfect sound staging and phase correctness for an emotion-filled musicality.

• Dozens of magnets securely grip the grill preventing resonance and gaps
• Rear-wire management channels
• Integrated wood back box ensures reliable and superior performance
• Shallow design and slim proportions easily fit the majority of ceiling cavities
• Twin 4”/10.16cm MHEX Phenolic Honeycomb Woven Hybrid woofer in die-cast basket
• Twin 5” Metal Amalgamation Compound high excursion passive radiators help create deep bass from a sealed enclosure
• High-torque angled wall clamps for an even structural tension

Integrated Wood Back Box

Integrated back boxes ensure optimum performance regardless of the wall cavity size or content. Wherever they are installed, they react as if the wall was custom made for them. Metal, plastic, or aluminum enclosures have inherent distortion issues that wood does not. Back boxes also provide substantial sound isolation and protect against materials in the wall that can damage the drivers.

Enormous Dispersion

KIN Architectural diffuse sound in an enormously wide, expansive manner comparable to a flood light and illuminate a room with Totem’s holographic sound. Most others function like a focused, narrow spotlight, creating small acoustic “hot spots”. The dispersion is almost twice that of competitive speakers, so it takes fewer Totem speakers to thoroughly fill a room, and listeners enjoy the same sound whether seated or standing.

MHEX Woofer In Cast Baskets

Multiple layers of phenolic honeycomb and woven synthetics are extremely rigid, have sensational transient capabilities, and a pure, flat response in the critical 100Hz to 2.5kHz range. Cast frames are tremendously strong, resistant to distortion causing resonances, and the open framework design allows larger spiders and voice coils to be implemented. The result is high power handling and formidable bass.

Titanium Infused Tweeters

The soft dome material exhibits characteristic smoothness while the added titanium element imparts highs that are detailed, airy, and extraordinarily lifelike.

Metal Amalgamation Passive Radiators

5” passive radiators are made of a proprietary compound of metals chosen for their strength to weight ratios. They are unyieldingly rigid yet perfectly weighted, so bass is both forceful and musical. These passives function in tandem with the MHEX drivers to tune the sealed enclosure to perfection with size defying bass output.

Connectors

High conductivity gold plated connectors efficiently capture the incoming signal for superior speaker performance. They accommodate a variety of connection options such as bare wire, banana plugs, and spades.
