Sound Stage III

The Sound Stage III is our, top of the line speaker system for audiophile recordings. After years of development, we finally presented the SS III at the 2014 Toronto Audio Video & Entertainment Show (TAVES). 

We are currently developing the Sound Stage IV which will be a major improvement on the Sound Stage III and should outperform even our current top-of-the-line Entrant model. We expect to launch this new flagship by 2026.
                                                           
We handcraft each Sound Stage III loudspeaker in Canada, to meticulous specifications. They are built for a lifetime of enjoyment. Many of the parts that are utilized are of a caliber expected from much costlier systems. Crossover designs with impedance equalization increase efficiency, allowing the SS III to be easily driven. The smoothness, transparency, accuracy and imaging of this speaker are qualities immediately observed, independent of electronics; this is what inspired Devine Audio's slogan “Audition & Believe”.  

"All my best-recorded classical and jazz discs came out, and in all honesty, I’ve never heard my music play with such a palpable and realistic sonic image."

"Soundstaging needs to be mentioned here. All my best-recorded classical and jazz discs came out, and in all honesty, I’ve never heard my music play with such a palpable and realistic sonic image. The Deccas and RCA’s, the Blue Notes and Columbias. Scale and spatial effect were so well articulated: but rather than distract, this aspect just augmented the experience, by adding a dramatically real sense of being there. I would put the SSIII up against any speaker in this respect; the stage is deep, wide and tall – and not in an exaggerated or artificial way. Absolutely incredible, even in my less than ideal room (low-ish drop ceiling)."

Designed specifically for Turntables, CD Players and audiophile recordings. They are revealing yet produce an immersive sound stage where the speakers truly disappear. While maintaining neutrality these speakers still add vibrance and warmth to the music. The tonal qualities were made to reproduce the sound of live instruments. They bring out the best in electronics but work best best with electronics aiming reproduce live, warm music. As some of the show reports suggest; it is surprising what this speaker is able to achieve with an apparent "mishmash" of "outdated" electronics (paraphrased from Robert Deutsch of Stereophile. At 98 dB sensitivity it's driven easily by most electronics.

It is rare to find a speaker with this level of imaging, soundstage and rich tonal qualities but our flagships Entrant & Challenger manage improve even on this by bringing out the best in all recordings. One of the comments we saw about the SS3 sum it up perfectly:

"these things image like crazy and had a rich tonality where guitar is concerned" - Tim Smith, 6Moons

We are developing an External Crossover in anticipation with a new technology for better results with steaming music and music of all genres. Our new flagship Entrant and Challenger tackle this challenge with dynamic intensity.

We recommend this speaker out of all our models if you're primarily listening to audiophile recordings and using they pair exceedingly with tube amplifiers, although as always our speakers bring the best out of all electronics.
