Acoustic Design Art. 8
3-way floor-standing speakers with a coaxial driver and two 22-cm carbon woofers
The Art.8 is the result of a collaboration between our development team and Belgian industrial designer Stan Maes—the pinnacle of Salzburg’s art of sound.
The Art.8 is much more than the sum of its parts: the interplay of all its components, its technical sophistication, and its perfect tuning combine to create an extraordinary listening experience. The stereo image and spatial presentation are reproduced with remarkable realism—the sound feels seamless, and the music becomes immediately palpable.
3-way design featuring a coaxial midrange/tweeter driver (magnesium/beryllium) and two carbon woofers in a resonance-optimized, wall-damped enclosure.
