Our Take
We believe the R1 Mk4 sets new standards for sound and features! With acoustic treatment the enclosure is strong and acoustically inert, providing an ideal housing for our electronics and NS+ driver.
A linear amplifier along with our NS+ driver and adaptive equalisation produce an eminently listenable sound at all volume levels.
