Commentary
A floor-type speaker system with a large variety of units.
Similar to the Paragon, the inside of the enclosure has a structure in which two sets of speaker systems are integrated, and the listening area is expanded by installing a semicircular reflective panel in the center.
Unlike the Paragon, the front loading horn is not used.
There were so many variations in unit configuration that there were 14 different configurations, basically 2 way configuration, but it seems that there were 1 way configuration with full range unit and 3 way configuration as well.
Also, as for D45201, D45S82 and D45S92, the composition seems to be different depending on the age.
The finish of the enclosure was described as Handler with oiled walnut or Torny walnut in the catalogue of Sansui around 1965.
