Virtuoso

About the Virtuoso

The Beauhorn Virtuoso is considered by many audiophiles as the ultimate Lowther loudspeaker design. It features beautifully designed, modern rear horn cabinets loaded with 16 ohm Lowther DX4 full-range drivers, boasting a claimed efficiency of 106 dB/W/m. The design includes a large mushroom-shaped wooden phase plug that helps cancel the characteristic 'Lowther Shout' and mechanically equalizes the frequency response. These speakers are large and imposing, originally They excel at revealing low-level detail and produce a realistic soundstage, though they require sufficient volume to fully open up and can be fatiguing or nasal with certain recordings. The horn is carefully formed with foam to ensure smooth impedance and ease of driving. The speakers are known for their speed, dynamic range, and ability to mimic live music, making them highly regarded among single-driver horn loudspeakers. Dimensions are approximately 13 inches wide, 41 inches high, and 26 inches deep. They are best paired with high-quality single-ended valve amplifiers for optimal performance.
