Features
All technologies at a glance
Berlin's bestseller
For years, the Ultima series has stood for a very good price to performance ratio. You won't get so much sound for such a good price anywhere else. Featuring superior audio technologies, the Ultima speakers deliver a perfectly balanced playback and are suitable for rock, pop, electro, classical and jazz music, as well as gaming and of course films. The new Ultima speakers are recognisable by the logo above the tweeter. They are the successor to the Ultima Mk2 series.
Developed in Berlin
The complete development of the Ultima series, as well as all other speaker series, takes place here in Berlin in our laboratories and special anechoic audio rooms. Optimisation and refinement has been carried out over the years in close cooperation with our design team. Of course, customer feedback continues to act as a crucial factor in the further development of all our products.

Evaluation of acoustic measurements
Building the first prototype
Tweeter with phase plug and waveguide
The phase plug and waveguide built into the tweeter are unusual features for a product in this price range. They create even crisper sound precision in the high-frequency range.
Phase plug
Phase plug for avoidance of phase shift cancellations resulting in improved transparency and directional behaviour of higher frequencies.

Waveguide
Waveguide for a very precise location of individual sound sources and precise stage imaging of all instruments and voices.

Kevlar mid-range driver with phase plug
The mid-range driver is not only particularly large, but also has a phase plug. The result is very good speech intelligibility and a particularly warm, natural mid-range. This also expands the listening area in which listeners enjoy optimum sound.
Compatible with all AV receivers
Thanks to their high efficiency, the Ultima speakers work together with
any AV receiver. If you want to provide sound for rooms over 20 m², we
recommend AV receivers from around the 400 € mark.
Unmatched in every situation
The Ultima 20 is a high-quality bookshelf / rear speaker that makes no compromises. As an individual stereo pair or as part of a home cinema set surround set up, the Ultima 20 comes into its own. The appearance and acoustics fit perfectly with those of its big brother. The speakers can be positioned on a shelf, on speaker stands or wall mounted.
Finish
Beautifully finished. Made from sturdy MDF with inner struts. Teufel speakers have a timeless design and long durability.
Lettering against high-gloss tweeter and matte speaker cabinet
Easy to clean finish with scratch-resistant surface
High-quality fabric mesh with revolving bevel - the frequency response is only minimally affected

After the delivery arrived at my home quickly and without any problems, I found out that the Ultima 20 bookshelf speakers finally fit into my shelf compartment to the millimeter. The "setup", if you can call it that, was simple and quickly connected to my recently "inherited" stereo system from Metz.
The rather small, almost 16m² room is more than just sufficiently sounded by these speakers. Since the "sound quality" can be described as subjective, I can only express my opinion at this point.
In my opinion, however, the Ultima 20's sound is very balanced and more than satisfactory. Modern music, old classics, fairy tales on vinyl - I haven't found anything to complain about so far. The stereo system allows for nice settings, e.g. with stronger bass. Here I like to listen to music.
I personally like the look - which is just as much a matter of taste - very much. With or without cover the speakers look quite good - and additionally, the outer cover seems to be scratch resistant. Without cover they look a bit more stylish for my taste, since you can watch the speakers "working" at a certain volume!
TL:DR:
For my part, I'm completely satisfied with the Ultima 20 and can only recommend: "Just give it a try!".

I had the Consono Mk3 set before, which I was quite satisfied with (small, unobtrusive) but somewhere because of the size limited mid and high room size 5,5x6m sofa 0,5m away from the wall, opposite highboard and lowboard. Bass was well adjustable, but still locatable (tried at different places) and not as in the room as I would have liked.
Now I have four Ultima 20 without sub and without center running on the Yamaha Rxa 1060.
I could have bet that they are good, but that they are so awesome as shelf speakers
I never thought in a million years According to the test the bass doesn't go down as much which is obvious because of the size but since I took four of them it compensates a bit according to my impression. The bass stands and fills the room cleanly.
The middle of the voice and vocals are so clear that you could think the musicians are present. My wife can't hear certain sounds so well anymore, now she says I understand every word

For a wide range of music tastes, from rock to classical, from jazz to folk, and from blues to soul, the Ultima 20 is the best recommendation. On the matching speaker stand, it conjures up a sound that leaves nothing to be desired in our winter garden (20 sqm floor space, 3.80 m average height)!

Bought the Ultima 20 to replace my previous Bose 201 V. The difference in quality to the Bose is considerable. Nice soft basses and excellent highs. If you close your eyes, you get the impression that the sound comes from large floorstanding speakers.
This is now already my 3rd purchase from Teufel. I have to say that what you are doing is just great. From
Internet presence up to the product everything is perfect and of high quality.
