## About

The same cabinet as the 343 Exakt Integrated, split down the middle: the tweeter, midrange and upper bass run off an ordinary three-way passive crossover and three pairs of binding posts, while the down-firing 220 mm woofer keeps its own 500 W Power DAC amplifier inside the box. That buys back 6.1 kg and a third of the price, and it leaves the speaker drivable by any amplifier — 85 dB into a nominal 4 ohms. Exakt is still available later, through an external Exaktbox or a Linn network player.
