Torus

About the Torus

The Torus Infrasonic Generator by Wilson Benesch represents a paradigm shift in low-frequency sound reproduction, departing from traditional subwoofer designs. It features an 18-inch ultra-stiff, lightweight, multi-axial carbon fiber diaphragm in a toroidal shape, driven by a powerful push-pull motor with a 16kg steel core that grounds energy to eliminate cabinet noise and drone. The diaphragm is geometrically optimized and weighs less than 100 grams, yet can support 1000 times its own mass, enabling lightning-fast transient response and exceptional control. The Torus delivers a frequency response from approximately 10Hz to 150Hz, producing deep subterranean bass with musicality, precision, and integration with main speakers. It comes with a separate 200W monaural amplifier/interface box featuring independent frequency adjustment, gain controls, and phase control, with both low-level (RCA, XLR) and high-level (Speakon) inputs. The design emphasizes minimal cabinet resonance, high build quality with materials like carbon fiber and polished chrome, and a distinctive black piano glass finish. The Torus has won multiple awards for innovation and performance and is handmade in Sheffield, England. It is suitable for audiophiles seeking highly accurate, tuneful bass that enhances the realism and impact of music and home theater systems.
