Rene van Es has posted a review of the Concrete Audio N1 loudspeakers (€32,000) at The Ear. His conclusions:
“The purity and low distortion levels of these loudspeakers are exceptional, probably mostly due to the cabinet material. The use of concrete is not new, for instance many Karlsson resonators were built in the past from concrete (as were Electrofluidics in the nineties, Ed.). Concrete Audio not only shows that this material does not have to look industrial and rough, they also show us that an acoustically dead cabinet doesn’t necessarily sound dull or shut-in. On the contrary they produce a lively soundstage. Add a high class source, bring in a fine amp and treat yourself with music.”
