We try to publish all independent tests about our
loudspeakers.
Cameleon Princess: Design and sound in harmony
Tested by Jan-Gert Dekker from HOME STUDIO - The Netherlands.
This article was written in Dutch. It's possible to

(Dutch).
 ... What struck me the most when listening to the
Cameleon Princess is that it has the same characteristics as every other Floating
loudspeaker...
The high frequencies are very smooth, detailed and extremely precisely placed. Other
loudspeakers often sound muddily and sharp at a higher sound, whereas the Cameleon
Princess continues to sound as open and precise as it would on a lower sound level.
... The voice is very accurate and stable in space and has precise dimensions of depth and
wideness...
The bass sounds - also on high level - are well controlled.
Conclusions
- Floating Cameleon III Princess has a well balanced
sound-image. Appraisal must surely be shown for the higher frequencies.
- I couldn't find any shortcomings, besides the fact that more
attention needs to be given to the placing of these loudspeakers compared to any other one
in the same price-range.
- The Floating Cameleon III Princess proves that it is indeed
possible to create a great and powerful sound in a relative small cabinet.
- For this Floating uses the most modern components and
technologies without dropping stitches on other points.
- The finish is very professional and the design is in my
opinion extremely trendy and original.
Synthese II loudspeaker: This can hardly be any
better.

 ...
Immediately it became clear that the "Synthese II" reproduce music to the very
highest level....
The extreme transparent sound and the spatial image are fabulous. I can
hardly imagine a loudpeaker performing better. The placing - for as far as the
recording contains the information - is holographic and precise....
The instruments are placed more precise, more stable and more accurate than I've
experienced with any other loudspeaker.
The loudspeaker is dynamic without being superficial and without sounding weary
(tired). The high-fequencies are beautiful and clear with no sign of hardness or
sharpness...
Conclusions
- This is indeed a really very musical and well balanced
loudspeaker. And, for as far as the placing and the setting of the stereo image go,
it's one without an equal.
- In addition it has the advantage of being a rather easy
loudspeaker. Compared to many other loudspeakers it integrates better in a variety
of rooms, this thanks to the "acoustic cards".
- As always, a listening session is recommended for those
interested. However, since these Synthese II are such extraordinary good
loudspeakers, it is hardly necessary.
Cameleon Princess (Floating Sameleon M): Regeneration
Artist
Tested by Hifi & Records - Germany
This article is written in German. It's possible to
read a summery below, or click here to read the original article
(German).
... The hearing-tests prove that Schellekens has attached as
much importance to the sound as to the design....
... The first sound-impression: 'very good overall'.
The little Floatings do not sound extremely spectacular, but are very well
balanced, without any special preference. Schellekens has managed to build a speaker
with a broad application-range, instead of a sensitive only in specific areas.
The Cameleons easily adapt to all music-styles: with Jazz,
the spattering of the tweeters is f.e. extremely convincing, with Classical music, it's
the all-round-equilibrated, never nervous reproduction, with pop-music, it's the really
strong placing of the base sounds;... with vocal music the movements of the singer's mouth
are simply 'shown'.
... It especially struck me that the little loudspeaker-boxes
were not as vulnerable as many other loudspeakers in the same category..
Conclusions
- The Floatings Cameleon M are not angular, black boxes.
They are elegant loudspeakers with a curved front and colourfull covers.
- With the Cameleon M Floating has succeeded in making a
Synthesis of excellent allround sound and attractive design, for people, that appreciate
good and easy HiFi.
