Redefining sound
The long, tapered damping tubes were a revolution, allowing the drive units to work optimally by gently absorbing stray energy.
Shaped by sound
At a glance, you can see Nautilus is no ordinary speaker, and after almost a quarter of century it still defines high-end audio.
Making magic
Constructing the complex shapes and precision drive units demands decades of experience and exacting attention to detail.
Crafting a classic
Nautilus is hand-built to order, alongside the 800 Series Diamond™, by a dedicated specialist team in our Worthing factory.
Infinite colours
Nautilus comes in three standard colours: silver, black and midnight blue. But, as befits such a unique speaker, we also offer a special service that can match any colour you specify.
Setting the standard for the future
The striking spirals and tubes of Nautilus came from our research into making speaker drive units behave as we wanted: this Nautilus Tube™ technology, for which we won a Queen’s Award for Innovation, is now found in almost every speaker we make.
Thinking beyond the box
Nautilus is quite unlike a conventional box speaker: to package our unique Nautilus tubes for use in the home, our designers developed the striking, and space-efficient, spiral form from which the speaker takes its name.
But why the Nautilus tube?
We want to hear a speaker driver, not its side-effects – conventional boxes contain sound from the rear of the driver, but bring their own problems. Nautilus tapering tubes soak up wayward energy and reduce resonances to the point of insignificance.
