Is each speaker made up of a tweeter/midrange cabinet setting on top of a bass cabinet… and are they meant to be biamped?

They can be if you'd like.

IS the bass sections powered or passive? looks like a top port in the cabinet.

Passive.

Gorgeous.  cannot wait to see the full specifications.

Curious as to why the separate enclosures.

Woofer cabinet vibrations are less likely to impact the midrange driver performance if they are not in the same enclosure.

No question about that.  No drivers are lower in distortion and these are long throw drivers so they can move a lot of air. The words that comes to mind when listenig is "effortless."

Our speakers have won many awards over the years.  None come close to the BePure series
speakers.  They are the best speakers we have ever produced. No previous model comes close.

Wow, that is saying a lot, like a whole lot.

Wow!!!

Are these going to become a product in the line up? Looking forward to more details!

Yes.  We'll have the design up on our web site late next week.

Now that's a buzzkill.  :|

I had a feeling it would be close to this number. The driver cost alone (and I don't know what passive radiators they are using) is like $3500-4000. Factor in the rest of the materials, the labor, and what looks to be Isoacoustic feet separating the top and bottom sections and you have a high cost product before any profit is realized.

Jim,

Are you selling the top section as monitors?  Since I already have your sub this might be a good pairing.

The top section contains a midrange driver, not a woofer.  However, the same basic cabinet will be used in a BePure Monitor.  We're finishing up that design now and should have the first pair up and running in the next couple of weeks.  Then it is on to a center channel or two.

If 20k is to much buy the Bepure2’s. After listening to these off and on at CAF and seeing the cost of lesser speakers. 20,000 is a bargain!

I guess bottom line the question is if you're going to pay 3x the price of the BePure2, are you going to get 3x the SQ.

I think you’re getting more than just better SQ for 3x the price.

20 stacks is an outlay begging for buyer's remorse. What happened to manufacturing efficiencies?
These better than something else for more money is only less of a swindle,  not preferable.
Tell me what the attraction is vs everything else.

Perhaps we should suspend the speculation and wait and see how Jim prices these beauties.
