This model has been designed with low power amplifiers in mind. At home with a variety of amlifiers both valve and solid state. The high impedance means that less power is needed to obtain realistic volume levels. The crossover is housed in a seperate cabinet that forms the plinth and the speaker cabinet is de-coupled from the floor. This also enables us to provide an active option for this model. Like all other models in the range AK5 is available with 6 different Real Wood Finishes. AK5 can blend in with almost any decor scheme and at £1399.00 per pair, it represents good value for money given the amplification it is designed to partner.
