The Auditorium is designed to preserve and convey the artistic merit, energy and nuance in a musical performance.
While this may seem a stunningly obvious goal for a manufacturer to strive for, in practice many loudspeakers discard much of this vitality and expressiveness in pursuit of a ‘better’ technical specification.

The Avatars build on the fundamental qualities of the Auditorium to provide a more refined, sophisticated loudspeaker for a serious and demanding music lover.
Possessing a broader tonal palette and greater degree of ‘organisation’ and musical insight,the Avatar provides body, weight and purpose which add a physical believability to the musical experience.

The Avatar OBX-R2 is a natural evolution of the standard Avatar. There are many differences and refinements – the most obvious being the use of external crossovers for optimum performance (OBX variant) and the employment of the exceptional Scanspeak Revelator high frequency unit.
Such refinement means the OBX-R2 is stable, organised and unfatiguing. The speaker presents music in a manner which has consistent, believable proportions and maintains natural dynamic relationships. Music that you had previously regarded as indifferently performed or poorly recorded can often become highly accessible, convincing and engaging. Music you have always loved can find fresh expression and meaning.

The RW loudspeaker is the ultimate expression of our Auditorium design.
Developed with the insight afforded by our Kondo KSL electronics, the RWs benefit from almost four years of meticulously painstaking auditioning, re-considering every detail and part of the loudspeaker from cabinet construction to component choice.
The result is a speaker which simply lets more music flow through, offering a palpable performance of coherence, scale and musical significance irresistible to a true music lover.
