So far Clarisys is not on the brand list of HE Munich 2024, the focus seems to be the US market.
Not really exclusively, although it is our biggest market. We were in Munich last year as a guest of Soulution Audio, which uses the Auditorium as their Reference Panel speaker in their factory, as does Lampizator (Minuet) and Shunyata (soon with Studio Plus). We booked a big room in Munich but only made the waiting list, so we are going to HiFi Delux instead.

There are already 10 customer installations in Europe, and we started like 1 year ago in Europe and are expanding our focus in Europe and Asia in 2024.

I have been following your product line extensively. What speaker(s) will you be demonstrating at AXPONA? I see you have two rooms.



Thank you in advance,

3 rooms and 4 systems.

Convergent Audio Technologies fell in love with the Auditoriums in Florida, we will show the new Auditorium + with CAT

Studio Plus with Hegel as they love our speakers and we think the 590/600 is an excellent price performance piece, plus the guys are really awesome and play cool music :)

Minuet with Electrocompaniet to show the warmer and more relaxing side of Clarisys

Picolo (new model and technology carrier for 2025+) in a yet to be decided setup

Hello Florián,

Thank you for these updates!

How does the new Auditorium Plus differ from the original Auditorium?

We are moving the line-up to a fully coherent driver aspect over 2024 and 2025. The Auditorium + starts this off by using double sided midrange and treble ribbons which makes the material, driver 100% identical. It is also a bit taller. The good news is that since all our speakers are modular, every customer can upgrade their speakers too. This change will make Clarisys the only coherent planar/ribbon speaker available :)
 
Thank you!

So by "coherent" you mean using the same driver material for all ribbons?

Yes, the bass, midrange, treble is the same material, has the same motor etc... 100% identical. Like a Quad Electrostatic Quality but with power and drive.

Florian, care to expand on the Picolo? Is it smaller than the Minuet?

I believe Eminent Technology has been using same material (Mylar) for all its drivers for close to 34 years.

Except the bass, where they use a subwoofer.

What would be the advantages of double side midrange or treble? Louder? Less excursions and lower distortions?

Quite a few things improve. Some highlights: double the impedance, twice the current in the magnetic field, higher resolution, less movement (movement is not good, movement equals non linearity, I don't know why companies proudly advertise that on a ribbon/planar speaker).

But most importantly, the same tonality, decay and texture across the range and crossover regions. Different drivers have different sounds, different textures and speed. By employing the same driver across the entire range, you reduce this problem to non existent.

Will you be at the show? I can show you :)

Double sided as in both sides of the foil is covered or double diaphragms .. ?
