There are various great loudspeakers on sale at this price – all of which have differing visions of what constitutes superb sound – and the German Physiks HRS-130 is one of them. Of course, the best model for you is one that fits in with your taste, musical preferences, your system and your room – all of which are highly subjective. Yet, I can see many taking to this and loving it. Its engineering depth and build quality confer unique attributes that mark it out as
an extraordinary high-end design

They instantly home-in on where the singer was in the recording studio's microphone booth and/ or where the producer had placed their feed on the mixing desk. There's a laser-like accuracy to the positioning of voices in broadcast studios, too; it was almost as if I'd set up a secret spy camera in a BBC news studio when listening to World Service radio!

When you've got over the initial shock of not being assaulted by banging bass, screeching upper mid and/ or sibilant treble, things become far more enjoyable. It's only then that you begin to appreciate this speaker for its many fine qualities
With Fine Time by Yazz, a tremendous late eighties dance single; this track has a massive synthesised baseline that chugs along, over which the singer's voice calls out mournfully. Again, I was once more surprised by the sheer scale of the occasion – the expanse of sound left to right and front to back. Contrast this to conventional high-end floor standers such as B&W's new 804D4 that I had to hand, and it was more like the latter was beaming sound waves at me, rather than circulating them ethereally all around. That is no small compliment because the latter is nobody's fool

It is as if the HRS-130 tears down the walls between the listener and the recording, then doubles back and hangs a very light, almost acoustically transparent black curtain between the two
The genus of the HRS-130 is its smoothness, spaciousness and subtlety, then. Even with loud and histrionic classic rock records, it's able to convey a great deal of their appeal
... the German Physiks never sounded less than highly enjoyable and insightful, with wondrous stereo imaging. No matter the programm material, the HRS-130 performed well across the board. From micro dynamics and low-level detail resolution to spatiality, treble delicacy and timbral resolution. It did an excellent job of reproducing most things, giving insight into the music and the recording without getting too analytical
Of all the music genres I tried, it shone brightest with classical. Here, its clean, open and natural sound – almost wholly devoid of coloration – was a revelation. The superb London Symphony by Ralph Vaughn Williams was an unalloyed pleasure, as the HRS-130 played majestically to all its strengths. What amazed me was its sheer resolution of the depth and breadth of the concert hall, with all the air and space inside it. At high volumes, one could virtually hear a fly land on the fire exit door handle. As the music began, the orchestra's unique sound was beautifully carried, and the music had a brooding, almost menacing quality as it built up to a crescendo. The timbre of acoustic instruments was a joy, as was the way the piece pushed along in a clearly rhythmic way. Dynamic accents sometimes felt like firecrackers going off, such was the intensity of the listening experience
