(All prices in Canadian Dollars)
Introducing Virtuosa Anniversario – our ultimate statement in a limited edition of only 50 pairs.
“I designed these loudspeakers to make me look forward to music every time I listen, just like I did at the beginning of my career.” - Roberto Barletta
"...a limited edition that could easily cost 3x as much for another brand with a purely commercial approach. ....the value that the Virtuosa Anniversario represents for the given price, we have seldom seen in the last 15 years." - HiFi Voice
"Absolute control, purity of the whole and finest detail, lightning response, speed combined with ease, overall fullness of the carried band. ....XAVIAN's Anniversary model is the best demonstration of their abilities and also proof that they can deliver a product that can satisfy even an extremely demanding listener. And we were no exception. The enchantment was so strong that right on the spot, still in the listening room, me and my colleague decided that Xavian Virtuosa Anniversario would join our reference editorial audio collection."
