 Yara II Superior :: Stereoplay :: 06/2008
Quality Galore!
Floorstanding loudspeakers in the price range of 2000 Euro are built by many large and small manufacturers. The question is, which of them sound really good? We tested ten candidates to get the answer.

Scorpio II :: HomeVision :: 05/2008
Flaming Passion
The noblest task a loudspeaker can accomplish is to reproduce music as authentic as possible. If the loudspeaker is able to involve us emotionally as well as captivate our senses, it is the work of an exceptional talent which is mastered by very few.
The new Audio Physic Scorpio electrifies the senses of every music loving audiophile.

Virgo V :: Diapason :: 04/2008
Sept enceintes autour de 5000 €
Les enceintes haut de gamme apportent-elles une réelle plus-value par rapport à de très bonnes colonnes moins onéreuses ? Pas nécessairement : la musicalité et l’homogénéité ne sont pas qu’une affaire de coût. On rencontre cependant rarement, en dessous de 3 500 m, le niveau de classe sonore atteint par les produits que nous avons testés. Par ordre alphabétique, nous avons apprécié l’Audio Physic Virgo V que caractérisent à la fois l’ordre et la vitalité. Souverainement équilibrée, la B&W 803S séduit par sa limpidité, sa résolution naturelle et sa fiabilité à toute épreuve. La petite Kef 201/2 se distingue par son expressivité exceptionnelle, dans la meilleure tradition britannique. Enfin, plus exigeante, la Proac D28 se mérite, nécessitant une électronique à la hauteur.

Virgo V :: HiFi+Records :: 01/2008
The Finest Metal
It is nearly impossible to name another loudspeaker manufacturer whose products have been tested by us as often as Audio Physic loudspeakers, and yet the "Virgo" success model has only made it to our test room once before (the third incarnation in 1/2002). Now the fourth generation is ready for kick-off. However, in response to Asian markets where many people believe the number four to be unlucky, the Virgo is jumping from number three to number five and once again is clearing a path for highly interesting innovations.

Yara II Superior :: HomeVision :: 12/2007
Ihre Welt ist bunt
Viele Lautsprecher blenden mit auffällig gefälligem Sound. Das mag kurzfristig Aufmerksamkeit erregen, mit authentischer Musikwiedergabe jedoch hat das wenig zu tun. Die Audio Physic Yara 2 Superior blendet nicht, hält mit ihren Fähigkeiten aber auch nicht hinterm Berg. Ein bemerkenswerter Schallwandler.
Farben beeinflussen täglich unser Leben, ohne dass wir uns darüber Gedanken machen. Sie entscheiden mit darüber, ob wir uns wohlfühlen, sei es im Wohnumfeld oder in unserer Kleidung; aber sie bestimmen auch über uns. Ignorieren Sie mal eine rote Ampelleuchte. Das kann unangenehm enden. Auch Klangfarben besitzen eine gewisse Macht. Sind sie breit gefächert, ihr Bouquet reich, steigern sie den Genuss. Ist ihre Spannweite begrenzt, tönt Musik grau und wie beiläufig, verliert ihre Inhalte und damit an Unterhaltungswert. Blenden uns Klangfarben neonleuchtend hell, ohne das samtig warme Element natürlicher Farbschattierungen, heischt das Aufmerksamkeit, kurzfristig, letztenendes jedoch fehlt die musikalische Substanz, die Bodenhaftung…

Virgo V :: STEREO Review :: 10/2007
THE MIDRANGE KINGDOM
The Virgo has always held a special place in the Audio Physic product range serving as a perfect link to the larger models and incorporating sophisticated technology. The latest version does not fall short of the mark. Has the new Virgo hit the big time again?
Have we really jumped a Virgo generation without even realising it? To date we have been aware of the existence of a third version of the loudspeaker which has long become an Audio Physic benchmark for success. And now the fifth incarnation of the Virgo is standing before us. Yes you heard right! In response to Asian markets – many Asians believe that the number four is unlucky - Audio Physic took a jump from number three to number five. We figure that is what globalisation is all about, and without access to global resources the brand-new Virgo could not have possibly been built.…

A REVERSAL OF TREND
Sonic sensuality instead of infatuation. With the AVANTI V, Audio Physic has said a final good-bye to »No loss of fine detail« Sound.
»No loss of fine Detail« This statemente can still be found on the website of Audio Physic where for years on end the manufacturer made the theme central to the design of new loudspeakers…

Avanti V :: HomeVision :: 04/2007
KÖRPERWELTEN
Die Audio Physic Avanti schrieb Musikgeschichte. Die fünfte Generation ergänzt diese mit ihrer körperhaften Wiedergabe um das spannendste Kapitel.
Ersetzen Sie den Begriff „Reproduktion“ durch „Auferstehung“, und schon sind Sie dem Wesen der Audio Physic Avanti ganz nah. Diese Lautsprecher reproduzieren Musik nicht einfach – was Schallwandler ohnehin vor ungeheure und oft unlösbare Herausforderungen stellt –, sie hauchen Musik den Atem des Lebens ein, schenken Interpreten und Instrumenten Körper und Raum. Sind die Avantis die besten Boxen der Welt? Nein, auch sie besitzen – verzeihliche – Schwächen, doch beherrschen sie das Existenzielle, das wahrhaft Wichtige wie kein zweiter Schallwandler in ihrer Klasse. Was hebt sie so von anderen ab? Ein einzelnes Element zu nennen wäre so vermessen, wie Michelangelo auf die Fresken der Sixtinischen Kapelle zu reduzieren…

Avanti V :: Stereoplay :: 03/2007
PERFECT IN ITSELF
With the Avanti 5 Audio Physic goes back to the roots and re-activates a driver design from HiFi pioneer times. It is this remarkable step which brings forth a trend-setting and relaxing sound.
HiFi journalists simply love to have Manfred Diestertich as a guest. After having worked for IQ for many years, he became Audio Physic’s chief designer where the high-end aficionado remained
true to his concept of lateral thinking and a constant source of new ideas and impetus in the pursuit of even better sound.

Audio Physic :: Tempo IV
loudspeaker: $3995/pair
Audio Physic’s Tempo IV loudspeaker is a handsome, slim floorstander with a suggested retail price of $3995/pair. Its cabinet design is unusually sophisticated for a speaker at this price. Over and above the faultlessly applied, high-quality, bookmatched cherry veneer, the 39"- tall cabinet is raked back 7° to timealign the midrange unit and tweeter…

Audio Physic :: Tempo loudspeakers
as reviewed by John Acton
"No Loss of Fine Detail" has been Audio Physic's slogan since the introduction of the Tempo, its inaugural loudspeaker, in 1986. The company has since expanded its offerings into a comprehensive line of loudspeakers, from bookshelf monitors to subwoofers to home theater packages to no-holds-barred assaults on the state of the art. Despite the growth of the company over the years, its emphasis on the elements required to reproduce music's finest details—spatial realism, tonal accuracy, and dynamic tracking—have been retained.

AUDIO PHYSIC KRONOS
The large-volume floor-standing Krokos speaker system is a current flagship of German audiophile’s Audio Physic company founded in 1985 by designer Joachim Gerhard. It may not be even right to call this huge three and half way system a flagship, but a battle flagship instead. This is a monument from both volume and sound viewpoint.
