FinkTeam KIM Standmount Speakers Previewed
FinkTeam KIM standmount loudspeakers were previewed at the Hamburg show.
FinkTeam, the creator of the incredible Borg loudspeakers, has outed its latest creation, dubbed KIM, at the Norddeutsche HiFi Tage 2020 Hamburg.
It appears that FinkTeam's room at HiFi Tage was consistently busy, and with good reason as KIM's preview was drawing the crowds.
FinkTeam KIM Now Released
Hinted back in October, the "large-ish standmount" is set for its official launch at May's High End Munich show. KIM will become available in Q2 2020 and cost "less than €10,000" in Europe, according to FinkTeam.
There will be, of course, a choice of several standard finishes to the cabinet which features multiple Strunk Absorbers and damped double-layer sandwich panels with one-dimensional bracing, as well as a CleanPort resonator. KIM also appears to borrow Borg's AMT tweeter and a smaller version of its larger stablemate's mid/bass driver.
Around the back of the unit are a pair of switches, one being a three-position Tweeter level control while the other has two options for Woofer damping. The terminals use high current single wiring of pure copper.
We are looking forward to hearing Borg's smaller sibling at High End Munich 2020.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
