One our favourites – the Kudos TITAN 505 is plain and simple Classic British hi-fi.
Stunning on both Naim and Linn (where it can be run in ‘Aktiv’ configuration on an Exakt setup) we have had thrilling results with the 505. The Naim Nova is a terrific all in one partner for the 505, and gives a truly entertaining system on a modest budget.
We have them here on demonstration, and then subsequent home loan for you to thorough try before buying!
EXCEPTIONAL, CUSTOM-MADE DRIVERS
The Titan series features drive units crafted exclusively for Kudos by world-leading specialists SEAS. All four Titans share the same superb K3 tweeter, a version of a legendary SEAS unit specially re-engineered to tailor its capabilities for the Titans. The 505’s use a custom 180mm mid-bass unit with a die-cast chassis with large open areas, a coated paper cone and a 39mm voice coil designed for low-distortion, high linearity and low crossover modulation.
All drivers are precisely matched and aligned to work together seamlessly, delivering an effortless ‘just right’ sound. When you hear it, you’ll know it.
LOW-ORDER CROSSOVERS AND MINIMAL DESIGN FOR PURER SOUND
The purer the signal, the truer the sound. A Kudos loudspeaker preserves a clean and clear audio signal by favouring a minimal design with our trademark, low-order crossover. The Titan series’ superior quality components are tailored specifically for Kudos to stringent tolerances. They include Mundorf’s MResist Supreme resistors and air-core inductors, and ClarityCap’s unique CopperConnect technology capacitors.
INTERIOR DESIGN
The best designs are a marriage of form and function. The Titans’ modernist design blends effortlessly into the contemporary home. Concealed within, however, is highly a complex system of differential panel resonance control. While keeping a rigorously tight grip on any and all unwanted vibrations, this smart system gives full and free rein to the natural dynamics of your music.
