These are the pillars the Founder Series was built on.

Every once in a while, something special comes along and changes the rules. The perfect blend of technology, design, and performance. At the start of Founder’s development, we knew one thing, when Art Embraces Science, anything is possible, and we exceeded our wildest expectations.

Founder is no ordinary loudspeaker. Every component, large and small, was scrutinized down to the tiniest detail. Every component has been thoroughly researched, designed, and engineered, exclusively for Founder’s. New patented technologies were developed for the acoustic platform. The new cabinet platform is not just a stunning design, its unique shape and integrated structural bracing delivers acoustic performance that cannot be matched by traditional square boxes. By leaving no element unaddressed, Founder’s is so much more than the sum of its parts.

During our exhaustive research, design, and engineering process, we looked closely and carefully at how speakers interact with their environment. The contemporary home interior presents design challenges that have become even more prominent over the last decade. Stone, glass, and wood have become the materials of choice and open concepts dominate. Founder’s design has evolved with this trend and is perfectly suited to deliver its maximum performance in rooms that would challenge traditionally designed speakers. Whether you enjoy movies and music in a more traditional listening space, or your home is from the pages of Architectural Digest, you can be sure Founder will sound as good as they look.

AL-MAC™ High-Frequency Driver

The Founder’s tweeter is a 1" (25mm) Aluminum Magnesium Ceramic (AL-MAC™) dome with a proprietary Oblate Spherical Waveguide (OSW™) and a Perforated Phase-Aligning (PPA™) Lens.

	AL-MAG™ Midrange Driver The Founder’s midrange is a 6" (152mm) Aluminum Magnesium (AL-MAG™) cone with Perforated Phase-Aligning (PPA™) Lens, Advanced SHOCK-MOUNT™ Isolation Mounting System, and a 2” high-temp multi-layered voice coil with ventilated Apical™ former.

Ultra-High-Excursion CARBON-X Unibody Bass Driver The Founder’s Bass driver is a 6” (152mm), 7” (177mm) or 8” (215mm) Ultra-High-Excursion Unibody CARBON-X™ Cone, over-molded Gen3 Active Ridge Technology (ART™) Surround with Vertical Mounting System, Advanced SHOCK-MOUNT™ Isolation and a 1.5” high-temp multi-layered voice coil with ventilated Apical™ former.

	ADVANCED Shock-Mount™ Feet Founder Floorstanding Speakers include Advanced Shock-Mount™ Feet which decouple the cabinet from the floor, not just once, but twice, for extremely effective vibration decoupling. Interchangeable hardware is included for both carpet and hard surfaces. The feet can be adjusted from above to level the cabinet with ease.

Partnered with the NRC Paradigm is partnered with Canada’s world-renowned NRC in ongoing research to reveal the true nature of sound and human hearing. Findings influence design and performance specs, resulting in a uniquely realistic listening experience, backed by sound science.

Speaker Types

There are several types of speakers designed for various audio applications, each with its own characteristics and purposes. Here are some common types of speakers:

Bookshelf Speakers: These compact speakers are designed to be placed on shelves, tables, or stands. They are often used in small to medium-sized rooms and provide balanced sound quality for music and home theatre setups.
Floorstanding Speakers (Tower Speakers): These larger speakers stand on the floor and typically consist of multiple drivers, offering powerful and full-range audio reproduction. They are ideal for larger rooms and audiophile setups.
Subwoofers: Subwoofers specialise in reproducing low-frequency sounds (bass). They are commonly used in home theatre systems and music setups to enhance the depth and impact of audio.
Soundbars: Soundbars are elongated speaker systems that provide improved audio compared to built-in TV speakers. They are designed to be placed below or above the TV and are popular for home theatre setups.
Centre Channel Speakers: These speakers are part of a home theatre system and are positioned above or below the TV. They primarily handle dialogue and center-panned audio, enhancing vocal clarity in movies and TV shows.
Surround Speakers: Surround speakers are used in home theatre setups to create a three-dimensional soundstage by placing them behind or to the sides of the listening area.
In-Wall and In-Ceiling Speakers: These speakers are mounted directly into the walls or ceilings of a room, providing a discreet and space-saving audio solution.
Outdoor Speakers: Designed to withstand weather conditions, outdoor speakers are used in outdoor entertainment areas, patios, and gardens.
Portable Bluetooth Speakers: These battery-powered speakers connect wirelessly to devices like smartphones and tablets, making them suitable for on-the-go listening.
Studio Monitors: Also known as reference monitors, these speakers are designed for audio production and recording purposes. They provide accurate and uncoloured sound reproduction.
Gaming Speakers: Tailored for gaming setups, these speakers provide immersive audio experiences, often with features like surround sound and RGB lighting.
Car Speakers: Specifically designed for automotive applications, car speakers are used in car audio systems to provide sound within the vehicle.
Ceiling Speakers: Similar to in-ceiling speakers, these speakers are recessed into the ceiling and are commonly used in commercial spaces, public venues, and home audio systems.
Horn Speakers: Horn speakers use a horn-shaped enclosure to increase efficiency and direct sound, making them suitable for outdoor events and public address systems.
Line Array Speakers: Line array speakers are often used in large venues and concerts to create even sound distribution across a wide area.
Ribbon Speakers: Ribbon speakers use a thin ribbon of material to generate sound, offering detailed high-frequency reproduction.

Each type of speaker is designed to address specific audio needs, room sizes, and preferences. When choosing speakers, consider factors such as the intended use, room acoustics, audio quality, budget, and compatibility with other audio components.
