There has never been a speaker as versatile as the ultra-flexible KIN Flex.

Put KIN Flex wherever you want or must.  On a table top, in a wall unit, on wall, on ceiling, horizontally, vertically, upside down, even at different heights. Its sealed enclosure, angled baffle, and huge dispersion ensure KIN Flex thrives in any position or location.

Be creative with them.  Position three under the TV for the ultimate sound bar.  Mount them high and upside down for a stealthy yet full room energizing option. The included wall bracket makes any installation possible, and easy.  However you adapt KIN Flex to your lifestyle they will bring your music to life, immerse you into the game, or transport you to the scene.

Listen closely and you can hear the mantra rise from the streets.

Features in Detail

Customized Drivers

Every single driver is completely unique to Totem and proprietary in design, engineered by Totem and then manufactured to the strictest standards to meet our parameters by the finest raw driver suppliers in the world. In some cases, where the technology is beyond the capabilities of suppliers or is wished to kept secret, Totem can and will build our own drivers. Every driver exhibits phase linearity, speed, emotion, off axis natural presentation, and spatial articulation.

Mounting Bracket

The Flex mounting bracket securely holds the KIN Flex in both on-wall or on-ceiling applications. When oriented vertically, included angled pads can be applied to the back, countering the angled baffle, to position Flex parallel to the wall and enhance dispersion.

Sound Isolation Pads

Adhesive backed Sound Isolation Pads decouple the speaker from the surface upon which it rests. They eliminate the distortion created by the vibrations transferred from the cabinet to the furniture.

Connectors

High conductivity gold plated connectors efficiently capture the incoming signal for superior speaker performance. They accommodate a variety of connection options such as bare wire, banana plugs, and spades.

Totem's Exclusive Torrent Driver

Totem Torrent drivers are among the most advanced drivers in the world and represent Totem’s relentless drive to push the boundaries of sonic performance. The driver cradle is outfitted with seventeen 2.5-inch long neodymium magnets which employ a proprietary topology in the way they are magnetized. Incredibly, the Torrent drivers do not require a crossover in their complete frequency path, allowing a completely uninterrupted signal flow. Sonically, these drivers offer a midrange with staggering articulation, organic harmonics, speed, clarity and detail extraction. Please check out our Torrent Technology page to learn more details about the design of these remarkable drivers.

Titanium Dome Tweeter

The titanium dome tweeter is engineered to perfectly match the performance of the Torrent driver. Its chassis, which consists of the front plate and the rear fins, is constructed out of a single solid piece of metal which allows it to behave as a large radiator that is very efficient at keeping the tweeter stable and cool. This tweeter is designed to produce gigantic imaging that does not shift about in the listening position, even during huge dynamic contrasts and swings.

Unique Cabinet Construction

The Element V2 loudspeaker cabinets feature a complex geometric design, without any parallel surfaces. This design allows the cabinets to have a certain amount of energy that quickly dissipates, harmoniously aiding with the spatial attributes offered by the speakers and without blurring the image or reducing the dynamics. Borosilicate paint on the inside of the cabinets acts like a radiator and maintains cabinet stability and sonic performance for the lifetime of the speakers, unlike traditional fillers used by most speakers, which decay over time.

WBT Platinum Bi-Wire Speaker Terminals

The Element V2 loudspeakers are outfitted with the coveted WBT Platinum Bi-Wire speaker terminals. The aluminum terminal plate is custom machined and annealed to reduce reverb. The speaker terminals offer adequate spacing for increased comfort when connecting speaker cables.

Magnetic Grilles

The included grilles attach to the front baffles using hidden magnets which allows the front of the speaker to achieve a perfectly clean and minimalist appearance.

Engineered + Handcrafted In Canada

The Element V2 loudspeakers are meticulously engineered and hand-built at our state-of-the-art facility in Montreal, Quebec.

Speaker Highlights

Artisanal Cabinet Construction

The cabinet design features a lock-mitered, monocoque cabinetry with full cross bracing. Lock mitering produces a cabinet 4 times as rigid as V groove assembly and provides a substantially larger contact point for gluing. Expansion and contraction can occur over many decades without any sonic degradation.

Custom Woofers

The Bison series features custom woofers that are unique to Totem with the integration of critical proprietary elements and magnetics. These woofers are thoroughly engineered by Totem and then manufactured to the strictest standards to meet our especially unique parameters by the finest raw driver suppliers in the world.

Tweeters

The Bison series employs a brand new, custom-designed 1.3-inch laser etched textile soft dome tweeter that is neodymium magnet activated. This tweeter extends up to 30kHz and plays low enough to contribute to the midrange band, creating a seamless and captivating interplay.

Rear Ported Design

The double or single rear ports use the energy generated by the movement of the woofer to not only enhance the bass response of the Bison series but fine tune this bass response to be in perfect phase anywhere one listens to them in a room. These ports are carefully tuned in conjunction with the cabinet size, volume, and an internal critical labyrinth design to eliminate smearing at lower frequencies.

Connectors

Two sets of high conductivity gold plated connectors efficiently capture the incoming signal for superior speaker performance and allow traditional, bi-wire, or even bi-amplification options. They accommodate a variety of connection options such as bare wire, banana plugs, and spades.

In some cases, where the technology is beyond the capabilities of suppliers or is wished to be kept secret, Totem can and will build our own drivers. Every driver exhibits phase linearity, speed, emotion, off axis natural presentation, and spatial articulation.

Handmade Crossovers

Totem crossovers don’t require many parts because of the synergy between our customized drivers, but the components are the world’s best. Our crossovers aren’t built on PCB’s because the laminated conductive tracks are weak and inconsistent. Instead they are secured to a thin piece of fiberboard or insulated polymers and components are mechanically crimped together because it simply sounds better. When we must solder, we choose WBT Silver Solder, the purest in the industry.

Artisanal Cabinet Construction

Meticulously hand crafted for peak performance that lasts decades. Lock-Miter assembly is an intricate woodworking procedure where edges physically interlock together. The resulting cabinet is up to 5 times stronger than conventional V Groove cabinets. Internal and external veneering resists warping, structurally fortifies, and ensures consistent peak performance. Industry unique Borosilicate damping manages dissipation, keeps the cabinet musically alive, and never deteriorates. Popular materials like poly fillers eventually decay, dramatically affecting the performance. Variable Density Fiberboard is denser at the extremities than the interior to reduce repetitive nodes and resonances.
