WORLD PREMIERE OF THE STENHEIM ALUMINE TWO.FIVE AT HIGH END MUNICH 2023
The new entry-level Stenheim Alumine Two.Five two-way tower features all aluminium construction and high-efficiency drivers.
Stenheim, the Switzerland-based speaker company that makes speakers with aluminium cabinets and high-efficiency drivers will show the new Stenheim Alumine Two.Five, a passive two-way, floorstanding, loudspeaker at High End Munich 2023.
STENHEIM ALUMINE TWO.FIVE
The new Alumine Two.Five like other models in Stenheim’s Alumine series of y speakers, builds on the simplicity of the original bookshelf Alumine Two, but with greater cabinet volume and double bass drivers for lower extension. The high efficiency concept means it is compatible with a wide range of currently available amplifiers, including low-power amplifiers.
SWISS ENGINEERING
“The Alumine Two.Five is an important introduction for us because its price puts it within reach of a greater number of music lovers who want to experience the Stenheim sound for themselves,” said Jean-Pascal Panchard, CEO-Owner, of Stenheim Suissa SA. “Although it is our entry-level floorstanding speaker there is nothing entry-level about its performance.”
The new tower, which, like all Stenheim speakers, was designed and will be hand-built in Switzerland, features two 6.5” woofers and one 1” soft dome tweeter in a front bass reflex design.

NEW STENHEIM REFERENCE PLATFORM
Also at Munich, Stenheim is introducing a solid aluminium billet platform for the company’s Reference Ultime Two and Three speakers.
Designed to enhance stability and ease of setup, the new Reference platform creates an enlarged footprint and a high range of adjustment. In addition, the platform simplifies the task of switching from castors that enable the speakers to be easily positioned, to the spikes that provide permanent support. Three different spike ends are designed to be optimized for thick carpet, hard, and delicate floors. Optimal set-up is achieved through knurled knobs that provide 10 cms/4 in. of height adjustment.
