The Luceras responded well to precise placement. They preferred being situated away from the front wall, but placing them farther apart (hence closer to the sidewalls) expanded the soundstage, with no apparent downside. They liked to be toed in to point almost at the listening seat. Reducing the toe-in slightly also expanded the soundstage; moving past that point sacrificed focus.At first, I dismissed Roberts’s insistence on biwiring via the Lucera’s robust binding posts. When I eventually gave in, running Danacable to the bottom and AudioQuest William Tell to the top, the speakers shed any constraints. The soundstage bloomed, and all the most important sonic elements improved: treble clarity, definition, visceral impact. Biwiring the speakers released a level of fidelity that surpassed my original, single-run configuration.Roberts offers a one-year warranty on his speakers, when many manufacturers offer two or even more. His explanation is an affirmation of his commitment to his brand and his customers. “One year is the warranty in writing,” he explained over text. “However, at my discretion, I will replace or repair any components or crossovers on any of my speakers regardless of who owns them, with no time limit. Easy to do, because in the 15 years I’ve been in business, I’ve never had to replace anything. Volti Audio speakers are not poofy high-end box speakers where if you just look at them the wrong way you blow a tweeter. They are extremely durable and will last for many decades.”

Then why aren’t there more single-driver speakers out there? Because they are hard to make. One can create a speaker that produces a flat frequency response, but how will it sound? Inès Marie Adler is not only a talented engineer, but she can also hear the changes in tone as she perfects her creations. Every choice she makes is to serve the music. That’s where the engineering stops and alchemy begins. When I listen to music with the Hagen2 Towers, I hear the passion and care she put into them.

The Hagen2 Towers are special. The big sound they produce belies their small stature. That first watt is their best friend. They are mind-meltingly fast and responsive. While they are incredibly resolving, they never sound harsh or bright. To sum it up, they are magical, wonderfully musical speakers. I congratulate Inès on her amazing accomplishment. If you ever have the opportunity to listen to the Hagen2 Towers or any of her other creations, please do so. You will be amazed.
