Pros

Produces a larger, more enveloping soundstage with strong imaging and a big sweet spot.

Delivers smoother, well-integrated bass that avoids muddiness or room pooling.

Keeps vocals and midrange highly realistic, clear, and cohesive even as scale increases.

Beautifully finished, furniture-like cabinetry and straightforward module setup add to the appeal.

Cons

The premium pricing places it firmly in the high-end category, especially in larger configurations.

Tweeter placement changes dispersion, but some listeners may prefer one configuration over another for coherence versus openness.

What Reviewers Are Saying

"You haven't heard everything your system has to offer until you have listened to it with the Gingko Audio Sextet installed."

— Enjoy The Music — Brett Rudolph -- Enjoy the Music.com

SOUND QUALITY PERFORMANCE 92/100

Reviewers describe a system that noticeably expands what the speakers can do, especially once the Sextet Swarm is engaged. The overall impression is of a smoother, more cohesive presentation with added substance, bigger scale, and a very enveloping stage, while the vocals stay vivid and lifelike.

Bass

90/100

The bass is repeatedly described as smoother, better integrated, and free of muddy buildup or room pooling. Reviewers say it contributes to the music without overwhelming it, and one notes its visceral impact when everything comes together, which is especially strong for this kind of modular monitor/subwoofer setup.

Mid

94/100

The midrange is a clear strength, with reviewers calling the vocals exceptional, realistic, and lifelike. They also emphasize cohesion and natural vitality, suggesting that voices and instruments remain intact and expressive even as the low end and scale increase.

Treble

88/100

There is less direct treble commentary, but the available comments point to a crisp, clear top end with a smooth overall presentation rather than glare. The off-center tweeter is described as a dispersion choice, implying flexibility in how the high frequencies are thrown into the room.

Soundstage Imaging

96/100

This is one of the system’s standout qualities. Reviewers repeatedly describe a richer, larger, more enveloping stage, with an expansive and exceptionally lifelike presentation and a large sweet spot that makes the music feel like it surrounds the listener.

Dynamics

91/100

The system is praised for letting listeners hear attack and decay clearly while also handling louder playback with a more impactful sense of presence. Reviewers suggest it brings more energy and drive without becoming overbearing, which suits its modular powered design well.

Assessments of Build Quality, Usability, and Overall Propositions.

Build Quality

91/100

Reviewers speak positively about the physical execution, describing the speakers as beautifully made, good looking, and furniture-like rather than typical audio boxes. They also note that the monitors fit together simply and cleanly, and the overall presentation feels carefully thought out.

Value for Money

88/100

At its high asking price, this is clearly a premium purchase, but reviewers still speak of it as highly desirable and worth auditioning. The recurring message is that it reveals a lot more from a system and is memorable enough that one reviewer was reluctant to give it back, which supports a strong premium-value case within its niche.

Manufacturer's Description — Gingko Audio

The Sextet is a collaborative effort that builds upon the Tubulous™ technology from Gingko Audio, the Swarm™ from AudioKinesis, and unique cabinet construction from Salk Sound.


Components

The Sextet can be configured to heighten the listener’s experience with a richer, fuller sound, with up to six components – monitor speakers, a variety of matching subwoofers, and stands:


  • The Monitor Speakers are built on Gingko Audio’s Tubulous™ technology and experience with the ClaraVu™ and Clarissa LE™ speakers.
  • Built on AudioKinesis’s Swarm Subwoofer System, the Powered Subwoofers incorporate a built-in amplifier and digital crossover to match the Sextet Monitors.
  • The Primary and Outboard Passive Subwoofers (up to four units) can be driven by an external sub amplifier in various configurations to suit the room’s acoustics.
  • The Dedicated Stands are designed for the Sextet Monitors and can be weighted with sand or lead shots for added stability and vibration control.

All Sextet subs and stands incorporate Gingko Audio’s patented ARCH Acoustic Resonance Clarifiers for vibration control and leveling on all kinds of floors.


All prices are for standard walnut, cherry, and matte black finishes. Other custom finishes are available at extra costs (contact us at gingko@gingkoaudio.com for details).
