Pros
Natural-slate cabinet construction is credited with minimizing resonances and preserving more driver energy for the surrounding air.
The review reports greater bass dynamics and output, alongside richer nuance and stronger impulses across the frequency range.
Despite its substantial engineering, the cabinet is described as designed to avoid an overly bulky presence in living spaces.

SOUND QUALITY PERFORMANCE 96/100
Bass
96/100
Dual 260 mm subwoofer drivers plus dual 220 mm bass drivers in a large bass-reflex slate cabinet and a stated 22 Hz low-frequency extension point indicate exceptional extension, weight and control for a reference-class tower. Specs (22 Hz, large multi-driver layout) justify an 'excellent' to 'reference' bass rating.
Mid
95/100
Two 180 mm midrange drivers with carbon sandwich membranes, aluminium phase plugs and neodymium motors suggest highly resolved, coherent midrange with strong timbral fidelity and crossover integration.
Treble
96/100
Custom Mundorf AMT tweeter promises airy, detailed high-frequency performance with low distortion; design and premium component choices point to exceptional extension and refinement without harshness.
Soundstage Imaging
95/100
Large, rigid slate enclosure, multi-driver symmetric mid/top array and AMT should produce wide, deep staging with focused images and good layer separation; physical heft and driver layout support strong imaging capabilities.
Dynamics
96/100
92 dB sensitivity, 118 dB max acoustic pressure and substantial driver complement indicate excellent micro- and macro-dynamic ability with plenty of headroom for large-scale dynamics.
Assessments of Build Quality, Usability, and Overall Propositions.
Build Quality
98/100
283 kg per speaker, 20/23 mm low-resonance natural slate cabinets, rhodium-plated 63 A tri-wiring terminals and aluminium levelling floor system point to elite industrial design and exceptional resonance control and construction quality.
Features Connectivity
80/100
Passive tower baseline applied. Tri-wiring/tri-amp capable, silver bridges and premium terminals are noted in the spec but score capped at the passive hard bound.
Value for Money
78/100
Price not provided; based on ultra-high-end materials, massive build and likely very high retail cost, performance appears top-tier but value judged conservatively without pricing/peer-review context.
