Tidal's Sunray loudspeaker outdistances Jeff
Fritz by almost a foot. Features of this 250kg loudspeaker include a 3cm diamond tweeter
and black ceramic midrange and woofer drivers. The price, commensurate with its size, is
68,890 € per pair.
Germany's Acapella Audio Arts, makers of the
High Violon loudspeaker you can find reviewed on Ultra Audio, debuted the new LaCampanella horned-based
loudspeaker. The price is 12,400 € per pair.
 
If you don't have enough money to buy the
LaCampanellas, you can look at Acapella's new LaMusika loudspeakers, priced at
6700 € per pair. The LaMusika speakers feature a leveling system consisting of a
top-placed steel ball on a thin track that aligns with a mark when the speaker is leveled
correctly.
 
360-degree radiating loudspeakers seem quite
popular in Germany. Mega Globe's Transglobal I is a four-way loudspeaker for which all but
one of the drivers is reflected by another driver's enclosure. It has a top-mounted,
upward-firing tweeter (that can be turned off), as well as a downward-firing tweeter,
midrange, and woofer. The enclosures are made of aluminum and feature a metallic paint
finish. The price of the Transglobal I is 9200 € per pair. |
