With the uniquely twisted side panels, the High Resolution cross-over and Danish designed drivers, the Twist is an optimised 2-way system for the serious listener. As a moderate sized elegant floor standing speaker, the Twist can blend in with many different styles of homedecor.

Driver Quality

All loudspeakers may look alike for the untrained eye. But to reduce cost, usually chassis are made from plastic, the magnet and voice coil are too small and the magnetic motor will be from simple, unoptimized geometry, to name a few. Now let's take a look at the woofer that is used in the Twist that has been optimized for quality instead of cost: (1) The magnetic structure is optimised using advanced Finite Element Analysis software. The result is a magnetic field with a better than 95% symmetry within the voice coil travel range of +/-12 mm. Compared to traditional designs, the harmonic distortion is greatly reduced, especially at higher loudness levels. (2) Large magnet structure with 39 mm heavy-duty fiber glass vented voice coil for better control, power handling, dynamic performance and low-level details. (3) Copper cap on center pole to reduce voice coil inductance and to minimize variations in voice coil inductance as a function of voice coil position.(4) Cone made of a paper/glass fiber mix with improved stability. (5) Rigid die cast alu chassis with extensive venting for lower air flow speed reducing audible distortion.
Our loudspeaker cabinet material of choice is Scandinavian bend plywood. This video shows the steps involved in going from raw material to useable bended wood parts for the Twist baffle, but the principle is the same for all our bend wood panels. First a special glue, vital for the superior damping properties, is applied to the individual layers. Then they are stacked and inserted into the mould. The mould is closed carefully to ensure the layers do not break during bending. Then about 100 tonnes of pressure and heat are applied for about 3-5 minutes. The heat cures the glue and the high pressure pushes the heated glue into the wood layers for perfect adhesion. After cooling, the wood will now maintain this shape indefinitely. Then all the desired details are cut into the part a large 5 axes CNC machine

  • Features:

    Danish loudspeakers

    Danish designed loudspeakers with the latest technology ensure the Twist delivers on its promises: symmetric magnetic motor, solid aluminium basket, extensive venting, to name a few

    Controlled directivity

    By integrating the cabinet design, cross over and drivers, the Twist has a controlled directivity of sound, meaning the Twist is less critical to the listening room acoustics

    Hand build in Denmark

    Build by hand in the for Denmark typical small scale production adds a personal touch to each loudspeaker.

  • Finely tuned cross over

    the elaborate 24 dB/oct Linkwitz- Riley cross over gives more upper mid range energy for a more open sound and improves the tweeter high power performance.

    Clean upper bass

    The acoustic design of the cabinet effectively reduces internal standing waves around 200Hz for improved clarity

    Danish Design

    Carefully considered curves are the heart of each unique Davone design. The perfect rhythm and balance of the design visualize music.
