USA company DCM enjoyed great success in the mid 80s with their “TimeFrame” series speakers, tall slim columns that looked unlike anything else on the market.
An evolution of their earlier “Timewindow” products, TimeFrame TF-250 speakers are a tall, very slim enclosure with minimalist design cues – a solid piece of oak at floor level, another solid timber top plate, and then a four sided non removable “grille” based around foam padded dark brown grille cloth.
The speakers use a 6.5” woofer, and a dome tweeter. Smooth bass response is coaxed out of the smallish woofer and slim line enclosure by using a transmission line design that terminates in a tube outlet near the bottom of the speaker.
The units have a small footprint of 320mm x 140mm deep (plus a fold out stabilising arm at the rear of base) and stand a full 860mm high.
