Twenty.23-01

Twenty.23-03

Certainly the first and overwhelming impression of the twenty•23 is an open, engaging and communicative loudspeaker. Its size defies both the depth of bass and scale of presentation by taking any music or film material in its stride. The sound is vivid and dynamic and delivered with authoritative bass. Close your eyes and their location dissolves.
