AV123 has formally announced that their new X-Statik Open Baffle Loudspeakers are now for sale on their website. We snapped some pictures of the X-Statiks at the 2007 Rocky Mountain Audiofest and they were very impressive. The speakers were co-designed by Mark Schifter (AV123) and Danny Ritchie (GR Research), and feature a pair of custom built Peerless India 6.5″ curvilinear treated paper cones along with an all new Peerless India fabric dome tweeter in an open baffle configuration. The low-end is provided by another pair of custom Peerless India 6.5″ woofers in a sealed enclosure. Frequency response is 65-20Khz (+/-3dB) and the speakers have an impedance of 8 ohms nominal with an efficiency rating of 90.5dB
The X-Statik Open Baffle Loudspeakers start at $699 per pair and are currently available at the AV123 online store in a variety of hand finished custom cabinets.
