H head_unit Junior Audioholic Aug 10, 2004 67 0 6 Dec 31, 2024 #2 This is a bit old, but anyway a friend has Buchardt actives-A400 I think. - Speaking as a loudspeaker engineer that huge waveguide on a tweeter is the way to go, I'm surprised it has not caught on sooner. - I have not heard his speakers, but he quite likes the sound. They measure well (See below). - Understand there is something called "Hoffman's Iron Law" which says small speakers designed to put out low bass will be power hungry. If you want to play loud you'll want an amplifier rated for a good chunk of power into 4 ohms...or better yet 2Ω. Here's a test of those https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...t-s400-mkii-spinorama-and-measurements.30251/ and of the original, showing a low impedance. https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/buchardt-s400-speaker-review.12844/ Reactions: Mikado463

Format wise, they remind me of the March Audio Sointuva, which, while considerably more expensive, are much more drool worthy. Maybe the exchange rates would bring them into contention.
