Truly amazing sound
HTM6 S3 introduces our new and even more acoustically transparent tweeter grille mesh, first developed for our revered Signature models. Alongside the new Titanium Dome tweeter, the resolution and realism is exceptional.

Precision and transparency
Thanks to its composite construction, the Continuum cone avoids the abrupt transitions in behavior that can impair the performance of a conventional drive unit. With HTM6 S3, experience a more open, neutral performance that delivers voices and instruments with precision and transparency.

Upgraded speaker terminals
Derived from those recently introduced in our 700 Series range, the speaker terminals on the new HTM6 S3 feature an improved layout and a cleaner signal path between your amplifier and your loudspeakers.
