AURUM WOTAN VIII
With its sleek figure and noble air, the AURUM WOTAN VIII gives an astoundingly musical performance. No fewer than three mid/bass drivers with tried-and-true quadral Altima® membranes lay a foundation of solid undertones with considerable dynamic reserves. And flawless reproduction of overtones is one of the quadral ribbon tweeter’s strengths.
Intricate frequency separating filters and bi-wiring terminals with gold connectors, as well as choice genuine wood and piano varnished housings round out the image of this gem of sound.

(…), offers an exceptionally transparent reproduction in the mid and high tones in combination with an incredibly solid bass base.
(…), what is perhaps even more surprising when listening to them for the first time, are the exceptionally clear, detailed and fine high tones, produced by the mentioned hi-tech ribbon tweeter.
The form of delivery can be compared to the extremely transparent character of reproduction of the high frequencies on expensive electrostatic systems.
“Rock” solid, fast, clearly articulated and really very dynamic basses are simply a joy to listen to. The universally sounding quadral Aurum Wotan VIII, which does not shy away from any musical genre (perfectly reproduces acoustic and electronic music) without a doubt deserves a recommendation from the editors.

Pronounced to almost piercing presentation of higher basses may not appeal to lovers of gentler high tone presentation.
