System One SB-15B is the replacement for the popular H388S, with a fresher design and a more vivid, detailed sound. These discreet and elegant tripod speakers do an excellent job as stereo / front speakers in a smaller system or as surround speakers together with the series' larger floor-standing speakers. On the back there is a keyhole bracket if you want to get the speakers out on the wall.

System One has done it again!
After many years, the Swedish brand's popular 388 series has received worthy loyalists. The new models were launched on the market early in 2020. The new decade has had a fresh start, you could say.
The development work has taken place in Sweden, but thanks to efficient production in a factory in Asia with few intermediaries, System One offers something completely extra - at a rarely seen price!
With a new and fresher design, you are ready to enter the market with a bang. Take the series' tall floor-standing speaker SF168B as an example. This large 3-way design offers both an amazing resolution in the sound, while the speakers can move copious amounts of air. The design means that they easily blend into the home, with a lacquered front panel and slightly recessed elements.
The sides are slightly arched. A detail that contributes to its elegant design language, while at the same time reducing any diffraction problems. A black fabric front grille covers the entire front seam of the speaker, so that children with clumsy fingers are not tempted to touch the speaker elements.
The new 100 Series includes three models. The SF168B floor speakers, the SC155B center speaker and the SB15B tripod / surround speakers. They have deliberately tried to keep the impedance even at 4 Ohm, in order to be able to extract more power from the amplifier. An important ingredient is of course to have a strong one, to get both purity and dynamism to the reproduction.
The intermediate register and base elements are built around cardboard cones, which have an excellent relationship between lightness, rigidity and internal damping properties. Together with a resolved treble built in a material called Cortina, you get a whole in the reproduction that will amaze many, considering the models' extremely modest price tag. The SF168B floor-standing speaker actually has double treble, to be able to match the larger elements in resolution and at the same time provide a wide scattering pattern.
The cabinet is built in MDF for best resonance attenuation.
So whether you're planning to build a music or movie system, System One will impress in many respects!
