Auditorium R25A 25th Anniversary
To mark 25 years since the launch of the original Auditorium loudspeaker, Living Voice have created the R25 Anniversary model.
Superficially identical to earlier generations, but fundamentally a different design, this is in all respects the most advanced Auditorium yet.
A distillation of everything learned in three decades, the R25A has a vivid ‘see-through’ presentation, a coherence and freedom that lends fresh insight into all music genres.
The Auditorium was originally designed in 1991 and remained in production until 2001, when the Auditorium MKII was introduced, this was succeeded in turn by the Auditorium R3R in December 2011. The current iteration, Auditorium R25A, announced in December 2018, extends the original design concept while retaining its core strengths. It employs a different crossover topology to the other models in the range and has its own specific drive unit complement and vent tuning frequency. You can read more about the development of the R25A in this interview.
