The companies goal was to reproduce the sound of a Steinway & Sons grand piano so that pianists could not tell whether they were listening to a real piano or a recording.
Speakers include an advanced version of Lyngdorf's RoomPerfect technology, which, the company claims, enables the systems to adapt to the acoustic characteristics of any listening environment.[3] The systems are composed partly of gold, brass and aluminum.[4] Each loudspeaker weighs 174 kg.[5] The systems are handmade and it takes more than 170 hours to assemble each system.[5]
