We still haven't learned the price of Peak Consult's InCognito X two-way floorstanders, but we're starting to believe Per Kristoffersen when he says he set out "to build the best two-way loudspeaker in the world,"
I've never heard a two-way reproduce a tenor saxophone's body and brassy ebullience like the InCognito does. And they're doing it with a 7.5" midrange/woofer? I don't understand how.
The ported enclosures are handcrafted in 1.5" MDF, covered with 1" hardwood veneer. The driver complement consists of a 1" ScanSpeak silk-dome tweeter with non-ferrofluid coolant and a 7" Audiotechnology midrange/woofer with a vented magnet system incorporating Symmetric Drive "to optimize the linear directivity."
Best in the world? I don't know, but even with the tough competition at HE2006, the InCognitos stand a chance for best in show.
