Up for sale is the pair of Academy speaker designed and manufactured by the Lowther Korea, arguably one of the best speaker makers in the world for Lowther drivers. I am the first owner of this beautiful pair.
This Acamedy set is in outstanding condition with beautiful dark walnut finish.
The drivers are two pairs of the PM6C model with a phase equalizer.
The price of the drivers is £ 535.00 GBP x 4 pc = £ 2140 GBP (US$2687)
The enclosure is made of the world-top-class Baltic Birch wood plywood panel. (strong, rigid, musically consonant, and relatively light weight)
In comparison to the MDF cabinets, this Birch wood enclosure offers far more transparent, detailed sound and great extension to the low end.
Unlike most Lowther cabinets, this particular pair was designed and hand-made by employing the Dovetail Joinery Method to guarantee the world-best cabinet performance.
(This Academy was made to order, costing US$6900 with two pairs of Lowther drivers)
The rigidly-joined horn walls offers the highest structural integrity as well as the best acoustic performance, maximizing the acoustic chamber consonance effect.
The sale price is US$3,299 plus actual shipping. (Buyer pays only actual shipping cost of his/her choice)
The speakers will be carefully packaged for international shipping and safe travel worldwide.

< Introduction of the Academy by Lowther >
The Academy represents the pinnacle of the Bico-horn designs, the exclusive horn-loaded technology from Lowther.
The Academy presents the panoramic sound image through stretching the merits of the Bico horn system to the extreme. At the same time, the Academy performs like a huge horn-loaded speakers despite of its relatively medium size. The secret is hidden behind the ingenuous dual-horn design with two drivers.
Each Academy speaker is equipped with two drivers, one on the front baffle and the other on the top side, emanating the sound both front and upward direction, creating the massive concert-hall-like soundstage.
