Model One SG (pair) – Ebony

Natural sound. Natural beauty.

Ebonizing turns solid oak a deep black while leaving the grain visible beneath the stain. This pair began as flat-sawn oak, and the cut gives it a flame-like figure that stands out against the dark finish.

A pair with its own character

No two oak enclosures are alike, and this pair shows it. The flame pattern is bold on the left speaker and calmer on the right. They are a matched pair, but each has its own personality, and the figure is something a photograph can only partly capture.

A natural listening experience

Like every Model One, this individually numbered pair (S001225 L&R) is designed to reproduce music with naturalness, clarity and realism, whatever the genre. Close your eyes and the loudspeakers disappear, leaving the musicians performing in your listening room, from an intimate voice to a full orchestra.

Each drive cone has a 360-hour run-in on a wide variety of music, then is tested, matched and paired before being fitted in its enclosure and given a final listening test.

Pure engineering. Handcrafted simplicity.

The Model One is a single-driver, floor-standing loudspeaker with an internal front-loaded, quarter-wave Voigt pipe. Its shallow, all-alloy drive cone sits in a substantial 3 cm solid oak enclosure, handcrafted without nails, screws or internal battens. Apart from the silver-plated, copper-cored wiring, terminal posts and carefully selected damping, nothing else sits in the signal path.
