(…), 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.
 

AUDIO Video VERDICT

(+)
These precisely crafted loudspeaker systems have a universal delivery with very solid and dynamic basses, brilliant mid tones and exceptionally detailed, fine and lofty highs.

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