Reviews

• Audio issue 5/2009; 2nd/5th place in test: "very good" (top class; 83 points) Price/performance: "outstanding", "buy tip".
  • "Plus: very neutral, high-resolution and mature, super timing.

Minus: plays very immediately, not for extreme dynamics."

• stereoplay issue 2/2008; 2nd/4th place in the test: "good" (66 points) Price/Performance: "outstanding", "highlight".

Optically and technically elegant compact speaker with sandwich cone and JET tweeter. Sounds wonderfully fine-nerved and remains relaxed even with complex sounds. Price tip!"

• Area DVD Published 8/2008; Single test: "outstanding" Price/Performance: 8 out of 10 points, "Upper mid-range".

"Fine-dynamically first-class, spatially enormously credible shelf speaker with elaborate technology and a processing at premium level."
