Contour 2
(Taken from the original brochure)
Børge Jensen on sound:
"I once heard a horn that sounded just like it.
But that was back in '51 in Chicago - and it wasn't something you'd find in this world."
"Music. Music isn't a bunch of little dots flashing on your amp, or how many points something scores on some test. You don't hear with your laboratory; you hear with your ears and with your heart. Music - to me - is when after the first bar I'm not in my living room anymore. I'm back at the "Three Deuces", "Minton's" or one of the other places where they used to play. I remember the times, when musicians were real people, playing every single note themselves. Just as we build every single driver ourselves today. It's too bad that there aren't a whole lot of people who feel that way about things, these days. Maybe that's because most people can't even feel the difference anymore."
The unbelievable transparency and breath-taking stereo imaging of the sound of a Contour 2 are not the result of a development of spectacular tricks, or pseudo-scientific solutions. They are the result of a comprehensive overall design concept involving every detail - no matter how unimportant it may seem. Two completely separated chambers with different resonance frequencies (computer-designed over several months) provide minimal cabinet vibrations.
