Theophany Loudspeakers

Theophany Loudspeakers Aerodynamically unleashing the full spectrum of sound In March of 2005 after much experimenting and prototype building Theophany Loudspeakers was established.

A Short History

After a life threatening illness in 2002 Garth Murray, who is part owner with his wife Stephanie, incurred a brain injury. It seemed that after the injury Garth's creative side was more prominent and with his background in both electrical and mechanical aeronautical engineering he was able to engineer new and quite unique speaker designs. At the time there were very few if any c

ompanies building aerodynamic speakers but this turned out to be one of the key factors in improving speakers to a whole new level. Since that time the models have improved as we have learnt more and more about varying aspects of speaker construction and design from some of the top audio engineers and companies around the world. Our philosophy has never been focused solely around standard speaker construction theory. While we do believe in the many advancements that our competitors have made we have found that some key and quite critical areas are often neglected. Accordingly we have chosen to focus on several very specific areas of design. Namely elimination of Harmonic distortion in both the drivers and the cabinets, very fast transient response or attack, aerodynamic airflow around the cabinets and very precise quality control of all the components we use. All of which improve the overall listening experience to a point of near reality. These efforts have not gone unrewarded. We have had many favourable magazine reviews both here in New Zealand and overseas. We have also been awarded several business awards including Champion Canterbury Business of the Year, Producer Manufacturer, Small Enterprise 2008, an award which we are very proud of. Our speakers are also being used by some very well recognised and awarded people in both the Hifi and Home Theatre industry including Nathan Haines and Hammond Peek. Our clientele is continuing to grow as we market our product both in New Zealand and internationally with markets continuing to grow in Australasia, Russia, USA, Europe, the Middle East and Asia

Our goal is that the speakers disappear and the music or home theatre audio becomes the attraction. Only by re-producing sound that is real does this happen and do people become truly emotionally involved with the experience of enjoying audio.

We have a few factory items that we are going to special off for an amazing price prior to Christmas.

We have a Ex Demo Psuche Centre speaker in Walnut. It has been moved around a bit so has a few marks but is otherwise fairly new with the latest upgrades and does sound amazing. The RRP on these is $3499, I will do this one at $1750.

Psallo Centre speaker second hand but upgraded in Black oak. RRP is $1899. I will take $500 for this.

Psuche three way bookshelf speakers. These are amazing and being used in homes and studios. The RRp is $4499. I will take $2750 for this pair in Theophany Grey oak.

Epiphany wall hanging Katharos speakers in Walnut. These have done very little work and still have a brand new warranty. RRp is $2999. I will take $1500 for these.

Psallo Tower in light brown oak hard wax oil. These are a rebuilt pair of Psallos that sound amazing and have a new warranty. The rrp new is $4499 but I will take $1950 for them.

We have also just released a new range of Subwoofers called the Kratos Carbon subwoofer. We built several variants of the 12" as a trial and I have two of these here. I am going to special out one of them at an amazing price. RRP is $5499, I will sell this one for $2999.

We also have some brand new Rhapsodies, Airos, Psuches and Pneumas that I would take a reasonable offer on.

Contact us if any of these are of interest to you. I have to return to Auckland on the 9th of December delivering stock that we sold last month so if you are in Auckland or the north island we could get any of these up to you before Christmas.

I have just visited one of our clients homes in the USA and was able to upgrade his Airo’s and then have a good listen to them. His care and attention at treating the room has really paid off. The speakers sound absolutely fantastic in the amazing room he has created, I was so proud of the Airos we had made for him.😁

We are very excited to announce the release of a brand new range of Subwoofers. Kratos Series 2.

As I listen more and more often to music I have come to realise the importance, in some rooms especially, of one or more sub woofers. We have built many different types of subs but I wanted to produce a new one that truly embodied the sound Theophany has become renowned for. Tight, clean, accurate, dynamic and musical. I needed it to integrate so well with our speakers that the transition from speaker to sub was not noticeable. It also had to have a cabinet with as little resonance as possible. Essentially it had to have good airflow around the cabinet to feed the driver (something we discovered a long time ago is essential in obtaining not only the best detail but the best image). Of course they needed to be powerful enough to fill very large rooms. It was also important that they be fast enough to actually hear the resonance of a bass note not just a muffled dooff sound, but the actual musical note vibrating. I am very proud and happy to say I believe we have achieved all of those things and more.

We have a range of them from 10 to 15" and can also offer custom built 8" and 18" as required. This is one of our new 12" Kratos series 2 Subs. I have been enjoying it in my lounge for the last few weeks and have to say I have never enjoyed a subwoofer as much as I enjoyed this. With a frequency response extending from 18hz to 150hz it has the ability to bring music and movies even more to life than ever before.
