The Square Two is a 2-way, floorstanding loudspeaker 
and is the entry point into Wilson Benesch High-End 
loudspeakers.
 
The latest incarnation of the Square Two sees important 
developments over it’s predecessor. The most notable 
of these is the addition of bass ports on the underside of 
the enclosure, carefully developed in conjunction with a 
higher mass driver cone to enhance bass performance 
and extension.

Trickle-down technologies from the Odyssey Range 
guarantee outstanding dynamic capabilities and like 
all Wilson Benesch loudspeakers, an exceptional signal 
to noise ratio to bring you closer to the musical event.

Like all floor standing designs, the laws of physics dictate 
that cabinet noise becomes more problematic when 
the cabinet surface area increases, in the Square Two 
a multitude of new technologies counter the problem.

Viscoelastically bonded critical mass damping has 
been added to absorb energy from the cabinet wall 
and dissipate it silently. In common with the original 
Square Series, the Assisted Bass Radiator (ABR) remains 
at the rear of the cabinet to absorb and control the 
energy generated by the powerful Tactic drive unit.
 
Unhindered dynamics and coherent time alignment 
come as standard, thanks to the absence of crossover 
components on the Tactic drive unit and a simple 1st-
order tweeter crossover. With these measures, the Square 
Two achieves unrivalled transparency and accuracy, at 
this price point, with all the subtleties of the performance 
conveyed intact.
 
Aesthetically, the Square Series II range sees the addition 
of high quality wood veneers, residing beneath a new, 
low profile grill. Laser cut from two sheets of steel and 
finished with turned metal links, the new grill offers the 
lowest diffraction of any loudspeaker grill. 
 
Built by the same technicians as the award winning 
Geometry Series and employing the Tactic Drive Unit 
technologies akin to the Chimera, the Series II Square 
Two pushes the boundary further from its award winning 
predecessor.
