  • Apogee Stage Speakers

    Product Overview – The Apogee Stage Speakers, released circa 1990, are full-range planar ribbon loudspeakers designed for high-resolution, low-distortion playback, delivering the open, fast transient response Apogee is renowned for.

    Ribbon Loudspeaker Performance – Featuring true ribbon midrange and tweeter elements, these speakers deliver lightning-fast transients, exceptional clarity, and expansive soundstaging that rewards high-quality amplification and careful system matching.

    Design & Sonic Character – The Apogee Stage Speakers use a dipole radiation pattern with large ribbon surfaces, producing natural tonal balance, deep image layering, and lifelike vocal reproduction unmatched by conventional dynamic driver designs.

    Specifications – Nominal impedance is approximately 3–4 ohms with sensitivity around 86 dB, requiring high-current amplifiers capable of stable low-impedance drive to unlock their full dynamic and tonal potential.

    Dimensions – Each speaker measures approximately 1220 mm (H) × 560 mm (W) × 60 mm (D), with a slim vertical profile that still demands adequate floor space and thoughtful room placement.

    Weight – Each speaker weighs roughly 32 kg, reflecting the substantial ribbon assemblies, rigid frame construction, and damping required for mechanical stability and accurate ribbon driver operation.

  • Ars-Sonum Filarmonia SE

    Ars-Sonum Filarmonia SE Overview – The Ars-Sonum Filarmonia SE, a hand-built Class AB push-pull tube integrated amplifier released in 2010, delivers 30W of refined EL34-based musicality with a built-in high-quality tube preamplifier stage.

    Artisan Tube Engineering – Crafted in Spain by engineer Ricardo Hernández, the Filarmonia SE uses premium parts and strict point-to-point wiring to produce holographic imaging, tonal purity, and exceptional long-term reliability.

    Synergy With High-Sensitivity Speakers – The Ars-Sonum Filarmonia SE excels with moderately efficient loudspeakers, offering superb control, rich midrange texture, and a naturally dynamic presentation ideal for acoustic, vocal, and chamber music.

    Stabilized Power & Refined Voicing – Features a carefully regulated power supply, optimized output transformers, and vibration-controlled chassis design to maintain low noise, stable tube operation, and consistently musical performance.

    Dimensions – Approx. 430 mm (W) × 160 mm (H) × 350 mm (D), designed for robust stability and ideal placement on reference-grade equipment racks.

    Weight – Roughly 20 kg, with substantial transformers and a rigid chassis that enhance resonance control and support the amplifier’s authoritative sound.
