What can I say about the Loreleis?
They are, in fact the Symphonic Line Legatos. We get the xo from SL, have the cabinets made (1" MDF) in Canada, and use the same Scan Speak drivers, 9700, and 8545 Revelators.
SL right now sells the speakers for $ 7,000. (6,000 Euros) in Germany, and we've had them available for $ 7,600. before we started making them ourselves. List now $ 2500.
As for the xo, figure Audyn caps throughout, SL wiring, and ridiculously large (3) coils, up to 2.7 mH !!!! Special here is that Rolf uses 2.5 mm copper wiring, which pretty much no other manufacturer uses. Even the vast majority of 20 K + speakers only use 2 mm wiring. What does all of this mean??? Well, great performance, of course. Like I said, it's a Symphonic Line design, and essentially a trickle down model from the 21 K BelCantos.
