This High-End 2-Way Stereo Floor Standing Speaker set was designed around Kartesian drivers in a rear ported bass reflex enclosure. The goal was to have a speaker that will perform well above average when paired to good equipment. The Kartesian drivers are very new to the market and untested in terms of it’s performance, however I can certainly attest to the quality of the product and it’s high-end capability when paired to good equipment. But even if you have budget equipment, these will still sing beautifully. We recommend that you use an amplifier that can handle an 8 Ohm load and is rated to produce at least 20 Watts per channel.
The build is split into 3 parts, which you can watch below.
