IN THE ABILITY TO CONVEY
MUSIC’S DYNAMIC EXPRESSION.
RHYTHMIC FLOW. AND TIMING,
THE EMINENCE IS SIMPLY
UNEQUALED.


In 2018 Wilson Benesch unveiled Eminence – the most ambitious loudspeaker design in the company’s three-decade history. The Eminence became a messenger for the next generation of reference Wilson Benesch loudspeaker design, introducing for the first time the A.C.T. 3Zero Monocoque, the Tactic 3.0 drive unit and the Fibonacci Tweeter. The Eminence quickly received acclaim from the most important critics in the industry and without exception, it was identified as a landmark achievement not only for the brand but within high-end audio design.

The Eminence is the brand and series flagship, but this loudspeaker is not simply about scale; it is a remarkable achievement in product design, integrating seamlessly its ten drive units with stunning coherency in such a way that allows the loudspeaker to disappear effortlessly into the listening space leaving only the recorded artist and the listener – an amazing achievement for a product that is physically taller than most of the audience to which it plays. But the Eminence also sets a new benchmark in terms of materials and responsible product design – signaling a clear direction of travel toward renewable and sustainable solutions – a baton that as the leader in high-end audio product design and manufacturing Wilson Benesch is taking up and pioneering into the future.
