Mycket bra matchning med rörförstärkare! Väl genomtänkt konstruktion med ett modifierat bredbandselement som täcker 200-12kHz, i samma hornkonstruktion spelar 2st 6.5" baselement för sömlös integration i basen. Egenutvecklad diskant som varsamt ansluter vid 12 kHz. Fanéren är Macassar Ebony och i fint skick. Skickas ej. Provlyssning går att ordna. Nypris drygt 80k.
This is a seller’s market for this category right now: at kr35,000, the asking price sits well above the 75th percentile of kr22,750 and is far over the median of kr10,015, so it reads ambitious rather than fair.
What keeps it interesting is the Lowther angle: these are highly regarded high-efficiency drivers, and a properly executed Horning/Lowther setup can deliver speed, clarity, and dynamic ease that conventional speakers rarely match. If the cabinets are solid and the DX45 units are healthy, there’s real upside for someone who already values that presentation; just make sure both drivers are original, unmodified, and free of rubbing or repair history, because at this price you want a clean, ready-to-play example.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Lowther Loudspeakers stands as one of the oldest and most storied names in British audio engineering, with roots tracing back to 1934 when Paul Voigt released the pioneering Domestic Corner Horn speaker. That same year, Voigt's partnership with O.P. Lowther of the Lowther Manufacturing Company forged an alliance dedicated to producing the finest sound reproduction available. For nearly nine decades, the company has remained based in Great Britain, handcrafting every component using techniques refined over generations, making it a true beacon of British craftsmanship in an industry increasingly dominated by mass production.
Lowther's product focus centers exclusively on loudspeaker drive units and complete speaker systems. The brand is renowned for full-range drivers featuring powerful magnets and ultra-light paper cones, delivering exceptional sensitivity, transient response, and low distortion. Their proprietary designs—including twin-cone drivers and folded horn configurations—remain foundational to their philosophy of single-driver, point-source systems that eschew electronic crossovers. Recent offerings include the Acousta and Edilia cabinets, built in small batches with seasonal veneer variations, alongside the Almira, their first entirely new speaker design in three decades.
Lowther occupies a rarefied position as a high-end, niche boutique manufacturer catering to discerning audiophiles and DIY enthusiasts who value efficiency, clarity, and timeless design over mainstream trends. Their drive units, rated between 96 and 102dB at one watt per meter, enable exceptional performance with modest amplification. Priced at premium levels—the Almira pairs begin at £12,000—Lowther appeals to collectors and serious listeners who appreciate vintage heritage combined with contemporary handmade excellence, representing an idiosyncratic but deeply respected alternative to conventional speaker design.
