Totem Acoustics Bison 5.25" Floorstanding Speakers

The Bison Twin Tower combines two high-performance woofers that operate in the same frequency domain, allowing them to provide a lush, thick midrange and the ever-important bass fullness, which is unique in the floorstanding speaker category. Thanks to carefully selected components, custom driver development and evolved hard-wired crossovers, this tower manages to achieve symbiotic, synergistic and remarkably musical relationships between all of its interconnected parts.

Available in White Oak, Satin White and Black Ash

Bison Twin Tower drivers are completely unique and proprietary in design. They are engineered by Totem and manufactured to the strictest standards to meet their parameters by the finest raw driver suppliers in the world. In some cases, where the technology is beyond the capabilities of suppliers or is wished to be kept secret, Totem can and will build their own drivers. Every driver exhibits phase linearity, speed, emotion, off axis natural presentation, and spatial articulation.

The Bison series employs a brand new, custom-designed 1.3-inch laser etched textile soft dome tweeter that is neodymium magnet activated. This tweeter extends up to 30kHz and plays low enough to contribute to the midrange band, creating a seamless and captivating interplay.

The double or single rear ports use the energy generated by the movement of the woofer to not only enhance the bass response of the Bison series but fine tune this bass response to be in perfect phase anywhere one listens to them in a room. These ports are carefully tuned in conjunction with the cabinet size, volume, and an internal critical labyrinth design to eliminate smearing at lower frequencies.

Bison Twin Tower crossovers don’t require many parts because of the synergy between our customized drivers, but the components are the world’s best. Our crossovers aren’t built on PCB’s because the laminated conductive tracks are weak and inconsistent. Instead they are secured to a thin piece of fiberboard or insulated polymers and components are mechanically crimped together because it simply sounds better. When they must solder, they choose WBT Silver Solder, the purest in the industry.

Meticulously hand crafted for peak performance that lasts decades. Lock-Miter assembly is an intricate woodworking procedure where edges physically interlock together. The resulting cabinet is up to 5 times stronger than conventional V Groove cabinets. Internal and external veneering resists warping, structurally fortifies, and ensures consistent peak performance. Industry unique Borosilicate damping manages dissipation, keeps the cabinet musically alive, and never deteriorates. Popular materials like poly fillers eventually decay, dramatically affecting the performance. Variable Density Fiberboard is denser at the extremities than the interior to reduce repetitive nodes and resonances.

Two sets of high conductivity gold plated connectors efficiently capture the incoming signal for superior speaker performance and allow traditional, bi-wire, or even bi-amplification options. They accommodate a variety of connection options such as bare wire, banana plugs, and spades.

The success of Totem’s acoustic decoupling Claw on other towers made it appealing to include but the associated costs were prohibitive for the price point. A new version featuring a high-density Delrin machined composite achieved the cost target and succeeds in breaking up standing waves and controlling surface resonance, tightening bass, and heightening the soundstage. These Delrin Claws are fitted with ¼ 20 thread inserts to accommodate optional spikes (not included). NOT REQUIRED: Bison Towers have been voiced with the claw as is, no spikes, needed nor recommended. It has been integrated should the rare need for a spike arise, as on a thick carpet to add stability.
