I saw that regarding the remote. Now that is clever. I have to say I hated my big Wilsons because of the adjustments and timing needed to be done “manually” and as we audiophiles are OCD you can only imagine how much I had to get up and “micro-adjust” and was never satisfied. Kudos to them for feeding our OCD with a remote
Don’t worry Ron we “audiophile peons” forgive you for your transgressions and please just have some fun, while those of us stuck listening to our systems, in the duldroms of our listening rooms suffer
Hard to say. At those prices and size #1 I would have to be worth much more than I am, #2 I would have to hear them properly setup with gear I would be using on the front end and #3, I would have to have a BIG room able to handle their massive air movement.
Of course I would need to own a crane to find their sweet spots.
Plus both could be used as a good start to a family mausoleum, I guess making the Stenheim a better deal as you get 4 cabinets instead of just two.
I went to listen to the Divin in the new 2nd showroom of Audioexotics twice.
IMO the Divin is so huge that 99.99% of audiophiles' homes can't accommodate it.
It's like a "concept speaker", similar to concept cars in car shows.
And I heard that Goebel is making a more practical and smaller model for the Audioexotics Show this summer. It's about the size of a Wilson Audio Alexx.
You're welcome Ron, and please return the favor when called for! I'm sure the moment will come, sooner or later. While I try to be accurate, often I'm not.

I just spent 45 minutes in the Divin Majestic room listening to vocals with simple acoustic accompaniment and bit of classical. Please rest assured this speaker does it all!

Find it curious that Gobel elects a very different topology/technology for their statement speakers....struggle to see how this meshes with their distinctive bending wave...
Ron, this is not a test for doing it all. This is a typical high end audio show demo.
Did you listen to any Electronica, ambient, Americana, prog?
Some jazz and classical is not a wide enough test.
Infinitely Baffled has turned down the Zellaton Statements for precisely this reason.
I’m sure they sounded nice on the usual Munich show musical fare.

During my visit they played:
Kraftwerk; female and male voice; Toccata and if I remember correctly: Daft Punk Get Lucky
In my opinion the Divin reproduced all of them to the "same" level.
The bass on the Kraftwerk track was amazing. Best I heard at the show.
Fremer also stoped by and listend. He had Louis from Kronos spin his records.
I think he liked it, because he said he stayed longer than he had planned.
