Reviews[edit]

  • stereoplay issue 12/2009; place 1/5 in the test: "good - very good" (73 out of 100 points) Price/Performance: "outstanding", "highlight".

Strikingly high quality manufactured floorstanding speaker with an untypical use of materials. Wonderfully delicate, multi-layered sound, high-resolution and accurate to the room. A hammer piece!"

  • Audio Issue 9/2009; 2nd/3rd place in test: "very good" (top class; 79 points) Price/Performance: "outstanding", "buy tip".
    • "Plus: quite neutral, contoured bass, quite good focus.
    • Minus: somewhat low imaging, voices a bit glossed over."
