Boenick Audio W13 loudspeakers (pair)
The W13 is the current flagship of the W range.
While appearing similar to the W11, like with all Boenicke models there's more than meets the eye. Utilising an active bass array with balanced-force woofers and programable DSP settings radically changes perceptions of bass performance for a home audio speaker.
Each aspect of the W13 improves over the other models and Sven uses all available tuning tricks to take performance to unprecedented levels. The result is a speaker that pulls on your heartstrings, excites and wows and ultimately lets you hear deep into the soul of the musicians you have chosen to share your space with.
A few loudspeakers can offer breathtaking imaging, texture and realism or rhythm and timing. None can combine all of these qualities as cohesively and convincingly as the W13. As a speaker, it truly fulfils the design ethos and desire of Sven Boenicke to not just to listen but to feel; To Feel It All.
