Verity Audio Otello Loudspeakers - Beautiful Macore Finish!

This is a near mint pair of store demo Otellos in Verity's popular high gloss Macore wood finish. As .long time Verity dealers, we consider the Otello to be possibly the finest speaker (per dollar) on the market. Trust us when we say that we know this is a bold statement given how much we admire a great many loudspeakers. Our demo discount makes this offering an even greater opportunity for the new owner.

The condition of this particular pair is excellent with the exception of the original carton packaging which is in rough but useable condition.

"The Otello is a floor-standing, single-tower, three-way, bass-reflex loudspeaker comprised of two isolated yet attached cabinets. The top cabinet features a proprietary neo ring dome tweeter and a wide-spectrum midrange. The bottom cabinet houses two bass-reflex rearward woofer. Both cabinets are isolated by a constrained layer platform coupled with special elastomers and the bottom cabinet is floor-coupled via a dedicated isolating system."

"This commanding loudspeaker boasts impressive dynamics and true musicality, qualities for which all Verity Audio loudspeakers are recognized. Like all Verity Audio products, Otello offers an outstanding performance for its price point and a remarkable intelligibility level for a speaker its size. Its smooth impedance curve, high-efficiency characteristics and proficiency in listening rooms of all sizes and conditions make it an exceptionally adaptable and versatile product. With an input sensitivity of 93 dB and even, nominal 4-ohm impedance, Otello excels alongside a strikingly wide array of power amplifiers, including single-ended triode designs."
