Remarks[edit]
- Top speaker of the "T-Series" in the last update level "E".
- Seven drivers and a tall slim cabinet with modern shape design.
- Great maximum volume and level deep bass.
- Good room resolution with slightly too aggressive treble.
- Very good workmanship with a cabinet without visible screw connections.
- The "E" stands for Electronic Bass Equalization and is similar to the Canton DC system. Also, the T 230 E has no internal line drivers compared to its predecessor. The same applies to the entire Criterion T series. All E versions have this bass equalization and have no more internal drivers.
