“The company’s engineers have gone further than most – the crossover is cryogenically frozen down to-238ºC”

There are some great high-end speakers on the market, but most of them need larger rooms to shine. So, what if you have a generous budget, but a compact listening space? We think we’ve found the answer in Audiovector’s R1 Arreté.

Audiovector is different from most rivals in that it offers upgradable speakers. The entry-level R1 is called the Signature (£2300) and it features a good-quality dome tweeter and a carbon-coned mid/bass driver all housed in a neat, nicely made, curved cabinet.
