Overview

The Audiovector R 10 Arreté is the pinnacle of Danish loudspeaker engineering—an ambitious culmination of over a decade of innovation and craftsmanship by the Klifoth family. Designed to rival flagship offerings from DALI, Estelon, and Focal, the R 10 is a statement in performance and aesthetic sophistication.

Handcrafted in Denmark from premium piano-lacquered hardwoods—African Mahogany Crotch, Canadian Birdseye Maple, and Italian Walnut Burl—each speaker is as much a piece of fine furniture as it is an audiophile instrument.
