Ascendo C8 Renaissance - A 3 or 4 way stand mount that is actually more like a full range floor speaker.
They are beautiful, very conservatively rated at 8/10.
I am the 2nd owner & have had them for about 2 1/2 years. Other than from manufacturer to Dealer, they have never been shipped, but I do have the excellent original box's & packing material. They will ship in 4 box's - 2 for the speakers & 2 for the stands. (Shipping weight is 115 lb./speaker & stand)I have driven them with:
Audio Mirror 45Watt Set Amps,
Gamut D200 MkIII SS Amp.
They sounded great with either amp. Highly praised by the audiophile press and rightfully so.
