ABOUT THESE FINE SPEAKERS

Ideal for (but not limited to) small single ended amplifiers of 2 watts or more, these little bookshelf monitors make a supremely respectable audiophile speaker when mounted up on stands.  

They feature a fabulous wool cone driver with no crossover.  With a sensitivity of 94dB 1w/1m this is an extremely quick driver. To mate with it we added an isodynamic planar ribbon tweeter using only a single capacitor to cross it over around 8kHz.

The result is as one might expect, excellent dynamics common to high efficiency drivers with the coherency and openness only found in crossoverless speakers.  

What one may not expect is the outstanding frequency balance. This is one of those speakers that you have to really work hard to make it sound bad. Incredibly musical and smooth with layer upon layer of micro detail.

These speakers have a very natural sounding midrange that leaves an impression when you hear vocals, male or female. The most surprising thing about these speakers are their bass character.  It provides a solid foundation for the midrange ensuring female vocals are never dry or strident sounding.

Supremely controlled and effortless they deliver a presentation with the weight and size you would never believe possible from such a small cabinet. (In fact they have more weight then many of the higher efficiency floor standing towers out there.)

With the vast majority of bookshelf speakers being less then 90dB efficient and limited to a max SPL of 106dB or less you won't find a lot of real competition for this speaker no matter if you're running 2 watts, 25 watts or 100 watts.

Combine this performance advantage with the coherency gained by eliminating the crossover and you have a speaker fully adept at showing off the merits of a really fine tube amplifier.  In fact on low or no feedback designs you can expect imaging to be holographic, huge, no holes and well focused.

 


Custom woods and finishes are available at additional cost (shown left) and are non-refundable.  

Standard finishes come with a 30 day money back guarantee.  If you don't like these speakers for any reason you can return them for a complete refund less a 10% restock fee. Our way of making it as easy as possible to audition speakers in your home for a minimal risk.
