Canton Bookshelf Speakers

Canton is a German loudspeaker manufacturer founded in 1972 by four hi-fi enthusiasts, whose name combines the Latin “cantare” (to sing) and the German “Ton” (tone). Based in Weilrod in the Taunus region, the company has remained family-owned for more than 50 years and is one of the largest loudspeaker manufacturers in Europe. Canton designs and manufactures all its drivers in-house, using diaphragms made from materials such as ceramic, tungsten, and titanium. The brand offers 12 product ranges sold in 53 countries, with around 90,000 speakers produced each year.
