Features
Krypton³“s propriatory paper -papyrus 8" midrange is actually many drivers in one and due to carefull driver placement together with the tweeter forms a perfect time accurate point source which works from 160 Hz up. Inside the critical 600-2000 Hz the cone“s "ribs" transform the unit to work similarly to 4", which leads to air and nuances, but will take full advantage of low distortion and high power handling of the 8" units.
The midrange clarity coupled with the power which can be achieved by kryptons two 8" units working in unison makes you wonder how you ever could live with the 6.5" other manfacturers offer at this price point.
The highly innovative cardioid midrange allows Kryptons to perform well even in
- small rooms
- close to big windows
- under other acoustic irregularities, which traditional speakers cannot cope with.
Krypton³ reduces unwanted reflections from both the side and backwalls (up to 20 dBs), so you can hear less of the room and more of the speaker.
In your current home. Or the next.
Amphion Krypton³ - A dream worth pursuing!
U/D/D stands for Uniformly Directive Diffusion. By creating even dispersion the anomalies caused by wall, floor and ceiling reflections are minimized. This allows the listener to hear less of their room and more of their music.

"The Krypton3 is more than great bass, we“are pleased to report. The treble is a solid act too. It is reasonably sweet, definately open and it gives the music a vivid tonality."
Alvin Gold, Hifi Collection 2010
"with an untreated room the reproduction was much better that one would expect"
Robert Jorgensen, High Fidelity magazine Denmark
"Remarkable"
Jonathan Valin, The Absolute Sound
"This tricky balancing act of delicacy speed and low frequency acoustic slam was delivered in breathtaking fashion".
Neil Gader, The Absolute Sound
"Most surprising demo I heard at the show!"
Clement Perry, Editor www.stereotimes.com
"The system was astonishingly brilliant and
transparent, yet smooth and effortless at the same
time. I was able to achieve the organic emotionality
that I listen for but never expected to hear at a
trade show."
Carlos Sanchez, www.stereotimes.com
"In particular, classical concerts are perfectly reproduced with a clear revelation of the room acoustics in various concert halls. It was fascinating to be alb to recognize the acoustics of the concert hall so precisely on the Amphions and to hear the difference in room acoustics between the (perhaps too) dry sound from the new Danish concert hall and the more open sound from the famous Berlin hall".
