Thanks the hundreds of people: reviewers, dealers, distributors who took time out to listen to some of the fine high-end audio components we import and distribute. We met and talked with lots of wonderful people who enjoy music as much we do. Here are sample write-ups from various magazines.We also want to mention that the Larsen 8 was being heard with the amazing GamuT Di150 Dual-mono integrated amp, their CD3 CD-player and all GamuT cables, which was essential to showing off just how good the Larsen 8 can sound and which helped make these reviewers enjoy the music as much as they did.

“This highly unusual design is designed to be placed against a wall, and features a tweeter firing into an angled baffle. At CES, Larson distributor Audio Skies positioned the Model 8s against the hotel-room wall between a large, immobile, and acoustically reflective dresser. Despite this hostile acoustic environment, the Model 8 sounded spectacular. The imaging was at least as good of that of a first-rate speaker placed in a large room well away from the sidewalls. As REG concluded in his review, Larson is really on to something with this unusual design.”

“As it turns out, although I may not have heard of the Larsen speaker brand, I have some familiarity with the speaker that that was its predecessor: the Sonab from the 1970s, designed by the late Stig Carlsson, was a speaker that utilized the principle of matching the speaker for against-the-wall placement. John Larsen worked with Stig Carlsson, and the current Larsen 8 ($6995/pair) represents an evolution of the original design by Carlsson.

And a lovely-sounding speaker it was: a smooth, easy-on-the-ears presentation, tending toward the warm side, avoiding the sharp, forward, clinical sound that characterizes many modern loudspeakers. I can appreciate why the Larsen 8 would attract adherents.”
