Reviews[edit]
- Japan baroque speakers in the typical wooden design. However, the coverings are made of plastic. The veneer is really unbreakable, unlike some manufacturers where the plastic just comes off after a while. The basses don't go quite as deep as one would wish. But the mids and highs are extremely clear and strong. Especially for higher classical music a pleasure. The price range today looks quite good, a good pair costs around 400€. Weight and size are a problem, especially for small apartments, but the depth is manageable.
