Horn Porn tour 1: Voxativ Ampeggio Due

These retail for USD 100k, and 88k EUR

High WAF, as they go flat to the wall, like 4 inch wide TV screens. Reflective front surface you can use as a mirror for shaving.

Each of those field coil drivers is separately powered, and the bass is downward firing, well integrated. The speaker is crossover less, and the resonant frequency of a 15-inch woofer. They can be swiveled on the stands to adjust positioning. Very correct and detailed, top to bottom, good impact.

As you can see from the other two pics, the guy also owned some vintage radio

Not sure about the waf on that one bro...

1st time I heard these at Munich I thought they were rubbish. 3 years later at Munich I really liked them

Did they have these? They had the lower models

No they had these or Due 2. And in 2011. I have pics to prove it!

Ok, I heard there smaller ones, must have missed this. Btw, in your Munich report (or somewhere) you mentioned that you heard the Focals with the Naims and those were the best you heard the focals. Do you know if they were playing them with the Naim Statements, because those amps are 150k or something

Yeah it was Bristol last year was there with Jon and his brother. Naim Statements. That was a great system TBH.

Just discovered the Vox's are £21K. Sometimes I really wonder about hi-fi pricing. It is just insane. IMHO while they can sound good that is a joke.

The 21k is a different model - I think that is the only Ampeggio.

Haven't heard Naim Statement, but one guy in Australia heard them on Omnicrons (lol) and was blown away by the speaker, only to later realize the amp was Aussie 250k

$100k?
:rofl:
