## About

The most powerful thing Buchardt builds, revised: four class-D amplifier channels per speaker, 150 watts RMS and 330 peak each, driving a 3.5-way sealed tower, now with the RFA19 tweeter first used on the Anniversary 10 and a completely rewritten set of Mastertunings to suit it. Six drivers, but only four face you — two of the 6-inch paper cones sit on the back, and the tuning that makes that interesting is the optional cardioid profile, which uses them to cancel output between 90 and 300 Hz. That is the band where a normal speaker radiates in all directions and hands the room control of the lower midrange, so cancelling it backwards is a way of taking the room out of the equation without treating it. 19 Hz at -3 dB from a cabinet 18 cm wide. Balanced XLR in or WiSA at 24/96, and no preamp inside — you supply the streamer. A €1,500 MK2 Upgrade Kit, on sale since late 2026, swaps the electronics for Buchardt's Axign-based digital class-D platform rated 4 × 250 W with the DAC in the output stage. €6,500 a pair with free worldwide shipping. The LE's page quotes only a 60 kg shipping weight for the pair; the 28 kg each recorded here is the net figure Buchardt publishes for the A700 this is built on. Buchardt publishes the cabinet width as 180 mm; the drawing here uses 246 mm, the span of the included decoupling base, measured off their own front photograph.
