Xavian have upgraded their Quarta infinite baffle standmount to the Evoluzione version. The Czech Republic based companys says: “In the spirit of classic models with this name, we have slightly improved the frequency response and overall sound quality, especially by adjusting the parameters and components of the frequency crossover, but also a more sophisticated system of internal damping, which makes the music blooms even easier and more natural than before. However, we have not forgotten the beauty for the eye, which is why all Evoluzione models are delivered at no extra charge in a deep glossy lacquer.”
With “luxurious finishes and extraordinary veneers (silver ebony, zebrano, rosewood) and black or white high gloss there are many extreme technical solutions with top class components, extremely rigid enclosures and extreme crossovers.” The recommended retail price remains €11,990 pair.
