Loud & Clear invite you to audition another model of loudspeaker from those wonderful chaps at Verity in Canada.
We have a pair of Rienzi loudspeakers on demo in Glasgow at the moment, and they have blown us away.
The Rienzi was conceived to bring the vision and design philosophy of Verity Audio to a wider audience of music lovers and high-end audio enthusiasts. Modeled after their acclaimed Parsifal Ovation, it has been praised for its richness, soundstage and scale. And we wouldn’t disagree. The bass cabinet allows a rear or front woofer configuration, with a bandwidth spread of 35Hz to 40,000 Hz!....and to top it all the top cabinet is a high-quality standalone studio monitor!
Available in a beautifully hand crafted finish with exquisite Italian lacquer.
£5,800 per pair.
Call for more details or pop in for a listen.
We were hoping that you could join us for an evening of music and movies brought to you by Loud & Clear in conjunction with Arcam.

We also plan to demonstrate the rDock from Arcam, arguably the best sounding iPod dock on the market at the moment. As a further incentive we will also be giving away an rDock on the night.
We look forward to seeing you at Bonnington Mill on Thursday 15th November between 5pm and 8.30pm. Please RSVP: Simon Dougherty on 0131 555 3963 or simon.d@loud-clear.co.uk
