New HifiStatement report of our big listening room

Dirk Sommer, the worldwide renown chief editor of the audiophile magazine hifistatement.net and the owner of the audiophile label "sommelier du son" visited us again in our new company headquarters in Landshut. He also brought with him a special made - near uncompressed - recording of Shostakovich's Symphony No. 11, which he had recorded by himself. (You can also find the exact recording specifications in the report)

His statements were:
... what fascinated me even more than the dimensions and airiness of the image is the extremely harmonious temporal interaction of the two subwoofers and the Majestic with its five drivers each. There is no need for audiophile recordings to hear transients that are otherwise only known from unamplified live performances.
I've never experienced such a small difference between a recording and a live event!

Show report with Best Sound of Show award

The internationally renown reviewer Roy Gregory wrote a comprehensive Munich High End 2023 show report. After the show Roy also visited our new company headquarters and listened to the systems we installed there in our 2 new auditioning rooms.

Here is a short extract from Roy's report about our big system in our new headquarters:
"The best sounding system in Munich - but NOT at the show!"
"But despite the sheer size of the soundstage and the speakers generating it, what really impressed was the combination of absolute stability, musical authority, subtlety, micro dynamic discrimination and musical nuance within the sound. Benedetti Michelangeli’s piano was a solid three-dimensional presence, his playing energising the instrument’s strings and body, recreating its layered harmonics and textures, its complex construction and materials. Note weight was wonderfully clear, the playing characteristically fluid, dynamics suitably sudden: you were never left in any doubt that this was a percussion instrument, or that the person playing it was a genius at the height of their powers. If the mark of a great pianist is their ability to make their instrument dance, if the mark of truly great, large loudspeaker is the ability to ‘do’ small, then this is one of the most naturally balanced and capable systems I’ve ever experienced. I have NEVER heard an audio system reproduce a piano with such natural grace, ease and devastating realism. What goes for the solo instrument goes for the orchestra too, while Giulini’s contribution is equally explicit and powerful.
This is a huge and hugely expensive system. But it is also a compelling demonstration of what is possible – and the yawning gulf between the best systems working at their best and the rest. Nothing available to the public at the MOC came close to this. In fact, very few systems anywhere come close …"
Many thanks for visiting our new headquarters and for this great report.

The Absolute Sound review of our Divin Noblesse and Divin Sovereign

Robert Harley, the worldwide renown reviewer and editor in chief of the audiophile magazine The Absolute Sound, wrote an awesome review about our Divin Noblesse loudspeakers and Divin Sovereign subwoofers. Robert Harley was so enthusiastic of the tremendous sound qualities and the impeccable craftsmanship of the Divin Noblesse and Divin Sovereign, that we also got the sole front cover of this February 2023 issue. Many thanks Robert for this great review.

Here are a few statements from Robert Harley out of his review:
- This clearer articulation allowed me to hear nuances of vocal expression with
  new- found ease and clarity.
- I must conclude that the Divin Noblesse is, through the midrange and treble, the
  highest-resolution dynamic loudspeaker that I’ve heard in my listening room.
- It has tremendous life, air, light, extension, and speed, yet never sounds etched
  or fatiguing.
- The speaker had superb resolution of bottom-end information, with no smearing
  of transients, blurring of pitch, or dilution of timbral detail.
- Kickdrum was tight and controlled, with no overhang or bloat.
- Bass guitar was reproduced not just as low-frequency information, but as strings
  plucked by fingers on the fretboard, with superb resolution of the starts and
  stops of notes and precise inner detailing of the instrument’s texture.
- The combination of this level of resolution with weight and fullness was
  immensely satisfying.
- The speaker had an exciting, visceral, upbeat immediacy that was reminiscent of
  a horn design but without horn colorations.
- In fact, the Divin Noblesse’s dynamic performance was one of its best qualities;
  it went loud effortlessly, reproduced transients with speed and articulation
  but no fatiguing etch, had virtually no overhang or smearing, and never sounded
  congealed even during the most complex passages.
- This is an immensely communicative speaker by virtue of its stunning midrange
  and treble resolution, dynamic verve, and transparency.
- I had many thrilling listening sessions with the Divin Noblesse—thrilling in a raw,
  visceral, almost primal way.

Many thanks, it’s a great honor.
Their statement:
And now, for the Best Sound in Munich – Göbel High End, True Life Audio and Kronos. When my show report on this room went live, I realized that merely hinting that this was the best room at High End 2022 was enough to get the PR machine a’pumpin’, and it did. I’d break hearts across Europe if I didn’t follow through and crown this system King of the Mountain.
That’s not why I’m picking this amazing system. I’m picking it as Best Sound in Munich because I’ve never heard reproduced music at a trade show sound closer to the real thing. Unlimited dynamics. Unlimited soundstage. Unlimited excitement. This is what high-end audio is all about.

Roy Gregory reviewed our Divin Marquis loudspeakers

We are very happy to share another raving review! This time about our Divin Marquis loudspeakers.
Roy Gregory, the worldwide renown reviewer of the audiophile magazine hifi+ and TheAudioBeat, wrote a raving review about our Divin Marquis loudspeakers, which is published on his own new website gy8.eu

In the following you will find a few review statements.
- The first thing that strikes you about the musical presentation of the Divin
  Marquis is its overall coherence – a coherence that extends from the musical
  to the rhythmic, the spatialto the tonal.
- The integration between the drivers is exceptional, the linearity and lack of
  colouration likewise.
- Its low frequency clarity combined with a natural pace and dynamic response
  means that sudden shifts in level or density still shock or surprise, even
  from familiar recordings.
- This ability to communicate musical purpose, to capture and hold your attention –
  that’s the Göbel Divin Marquis’ ‘Super Power’.
- This is a speaker that punches well above its weight, both sonically and musically.
  Given its not inconsiderable size and mass, that’s impressive indeed.
- … ,this Göbel loudspeaker is re-writing the rulebook – and doing it in one of the
  most competitive market sectors in the whole of high-end audio.

Divin Noblesse review by Roy Gregory

We are thrilled to share a new review of our Divin Noblesse loudspeakers.
Roy Gregory, the world wide renown reviewer wrote an awesome review about our Divin Noblesse loudspeakers and published it over theaudiobeat.com

Here are a few of his review statements:
- the Divin Noblesse delivers bass that’s pitch-agile, articulate and fast on its feet
- The notes are so clearly defined in terms of spacing and placement, frequency
  and timing, that you can almost picture Charlie’s hands working the strings.
- The Divin Noblesse captures all the floating agitation of the low frequencies,
  perfectly reproducing the frisson of excitement that’s generated by the piece
  played live.
- ..., but the Göbels take it to a new level, investing it with a combination of
  concentrated energy and focused delicacy.
- It’s this ability to sound dynamic and energetic but at the same time poised and
  precise, cultured and controlled, that makes the Divin Noblesse stand apart
  from the crowd.
- The Göbels manage to be both impressive and natural in their musical vocabulary
  and presentation,...
- If you want to define (or redefine) high-end audio, that’s a pretty good place to start.

Divin Marquis review by Fidelity magazine

We are thrilled to share a new review of our Divin Marquis loudspeaker.
The world wide renown magazine „Fidelity" published a review of our Divin Marquis
loudspeakers in their 53 issue for January/February 2021.

Their review statement:
- The Divin Marquis is an uncompromising loudspeaker that can handle all amplifier
  concepts without any issues. It also can’t fail to impress with its out-of-this-world
  level of precision and detail.
- The Marquis achieved exemplary nuance of sound right down into the deepest
  ranges, and the spatial placement of the individual sound events below the
  fundamental tone was absolutely amazing. Many can achieve that above the tone, but
  such a precisely projected series of double basses was something we hadn't ever
  heard before.
- ..., and we wandered from one virtual concert hall to the next all the while feeling
  like the musicians, singers, and conductors were physically right in front of us.
- Given all its many positive qualities, the Divin Marquis is, well, simply divine.

Stereophile review of our Divin Marquis

John Atkinson, the worldwide renown reviewer and technical editor of the audiophile
magazine stereophile wrote an awesome review about our Divin Marquis
loudspeakers which is published as the front cover review in the October 2020
issue of the stereophile magazine. Many thanks John for this great review.
We appreciate a lot.

Here are a few statements out of this review from John Atkinson:
- "The deep organ notes at the climax of Philip Ledger’s performance of Franck’s
  Chorale No.3 in A minor (24/192 AIFF needle drop from Organ Music from King’s
  College, HMV HQS 1356) were reproduced with seemingly limitless power."
- "The Göbel loudspeakers were chameleons. They sounded small when appropriate,
  as with Chris Thile’s transcriptions for mandolin of Bach’s Sonatas and Partitas
  for Violin, Vol.1 (16/44.1 AIFF, Nonesuch 5353602) but massively powerful
  when the recording called for it, as with Joe Walsh’s “Rocky Mountain Way”
  (24/192 AIFF needle drop from a 12" 45rpm single, ABC ABE 12002)."
- "My ears frazzled by giving in to the temptation to play Joe Walsh as loud as the
  Göbels would allow without strain."
- ... "the lowest notes were nicely fleshed out by the Göbels but without any boom:
  There was no indication that these are big loudspeakers with big woofers."
- "But it was the unexpectedly delicate way in which these speakers got right the
  country-dance character of the third movement, the bassoon punctuations in
  particular, that impressed."
- "And the glorious restatement of that I-vi-IV-V chord sequence — so overused
  since Beethoven’s time — at the end of the finale rocked my world on the
  Göbel speakers."
- "Full range, low distortion, no coloration: The thoroughbred performance of the
  Divin Marquis confirms that Göbel High End presents serious competition to
  the Wilsons, Magicos, Rockports, Tidals, von Schweikerts, and YG Acousticses
  of the cost-no-object loudspeaker world."

HifiStatement review of our Epoque Aeon Fine

Dirk Sommer, the worldwide renown chief editor of the audiophile magazine
hifistatement.net wrote a raving review about our Epoque Aeon Fine loudspeakers.
He was so impressed that after the review he bought the Epoque Aeon Fine
loudspeakers for his auditing system!

As the review is in German language, we translated a few of his statements in English language:
- "The transient playback makes the Göbels unparalleled to me."
- "... the homogeneity of the reproduction and the expansion and plasticity of the
  spatial representation are outstanding."
- "... especially the ability to reproduce transients, almost like real instruments,
  fascinates me about the bending wave loudspeaker in combination with the fast,
  small bass drivers."
- "I have now lived with the Göbel High End Epoque Aeon Fine for over a year and a
  half and have learned to appreciate it so much as a work tool and as a luxury
  item that I don't want to part with it anymore and bought it a few months ago!"
- "A real dream loudspeaker!"

New Epoque Aeon loudspeaker line

After 6 years in production, we are happy to announce our new updated Epoque
loudspeaker line.

As our new Epoque loudspeaker line will for sure be THE milestone for loudspeaker
technology worldwide, we called it very self-confident Epoque Aeon!

It is the starting point of a new calculation of time for loudspeakers! We are sure you will
instantly fall in love with them. They will represent your music in a way you never
experienced before. Emotional, musical, flawless, complete, …, in one word real! Your
goosebumps will tell you. All our researches, technologies and efforts have only one reason,
to really bring the music alive! That is and always was the passion of all our work!

What are the improvements:
- Improved bending wave driver (improved mechanical parts, improved lossless behavior,
  improved heat dissipation, improved distortion behavior, improved phase behavior)
- improved bass drivers and alignment (improved loss less behavior, improved distortion
  behavior)
- improved and adjusted crossover (topology and parts quality)
- improved mechanical coupling (new materials for the foot and new ceramic ball feet)
- improved electrical behavior (impedance behavior, electrical phase behavior)
- improved lacquer finish (Now real piano lacquer finish! And we are talking about real piano
  lacquer finish of the highest quality! As always completely made in Germany!)

What will these improvements result in:
- even better frequency linearity
- even better frequency dispersion
- even better impulse response over the whole frequency range
- even better and max. realistic soundstage
- even better small signal behavior
- even better bass response (control, speed, integration)
- +4 dB higher max SPL!
- easy to drive for the amps!:
The min. impedance in single wiring of the Epoque Aeon Reference is now 3,4 ohm, and
only between a very narrow area!
The min. impedance in single wiring of the Epoque Aeon Fine is now 2,8 ohm, and
only between a very narrow area!
The min. impedance in single wiring of the Epoque Aeon Wall is now 4,0 ohm, and
only between a very narrow area!
So now, you can drive the Epoque Aeon line with nearly every amplifier!
- last but not least, highest possible sophisticated appearance through the real piano
  lacquer finish (which is also made in Germany!)

And the final good news is, that we were able to keep the same gorgeous outside
industrial design!

The magazine AD Style published one of our customers projects

We are delighted to share one of our customers projects, where we were responsible for the
complete audio part. Lately it was also published in the Italian AD Style magazine.
(ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST)
This project included a high end stereo system in the library, where we installed our Epoque
Wall loudspeakers, a high end home cinema system in the cinema room where we installed
5 derivates of our Epoque Wall loudspeakers with two subwoofers and additionally several
multi channel systems with custom made solutions for the dining room, living room, the terrace, …
Beside the highest possible sound quality, one request for this project was the possibility to
integrate the loudspeakers and electronics very discrete, so they doesn’t interrupt the total
architectural work of art.
Many thanks, that we could be part of this great project.

- When the Epoque Fine is playing, the enormous homogeneity and the degree of
  authenticity with which sounds, voices and instruments are displayed is breathtaking.
- This loudspeaker is an extremely revealing window and simply let you hear everything.
- Further noticeable, the Epoque Fine has a gigantic drive in the low frequency range.
  Hereby the sound stays perfectly balanced, but the power of the layering is phenomenal.

Fidelity report of the 2017 Munich HIGH END show

The world wide renown “fidelity magazine” wrote a nice statement in their final Munich High End 2017 report:
Aber auch im klassischen Zwei-Kanal-Stereobereich gab es einiges zu bestaunen, was die Grenzen des Machbaren neu auslotete. Bei Göbel Audio beispielsweise spielten zwei übermannsgroße Säulen plus zwei massive Subwoofer – bestückt mit jeweils acht Chassis – an Elektronik von CH Precision. Das mag zunächst einmal den Eindruck von „sehr laut“ und „ultramassiv“ erwecken, doch das Gegenteil war klanglich der Fall. Ein Klang mit schwer zu beschreibender, geradezu unendlicher Leichtigkeit und Selbstverständlichkeit erfüllte den Raum. Und das nicht nur in bestimmten Frequenzbereichen, sondern über das ganze Audiospektrum hinweg. Göbel Audio dürfte damit, was Zwei-Kanal-Stereo betrifft, ein absoluter Maßstab für sehr viele andere Hersteller sein, die sich am obersten Ende einer virtuellen Klangskala tummeln.
Many thanks Ingo Schulz for this great report.

For our presentation on the Warsaw Audio show 2016 we additionally won another “Best Sound of Show” award from the worldwide renown German loudspeakers magazine “Fidelity”. Many thanks for this award, we really appreciate it.

1. Göbel High End with electronics from CH Precision.
Göbel High End was one of the rooms that you enter and you are immediately able to summarize: Yes, it has to be exactly like this! That's really, really good: no unnatural sharpness, a tremendous perceiving of the individual sound nuances, an incredible naturalness, plasticity and spatiality - acoustically the technology disappears completely. What remains is pure music and nothing but pure music. For us that is the very highest level!

“Best Sound of Show” at the 2016 Munich HIGH END show

After his visit in our room at the 2016 Munich HIGH END show, Mujtaba from Moiz Audio awarded our system, which consists out of a pair of Epoque Reference loudspeakers together with two of our new active compact subwoofers Epoque Baforce Petite for “Best Sound of Show”.

You will find the video of our setup:

Best Sound of Show 2016

New active versions of our Epoque Baforce and Epoque Baforce Petite

Our new active versions of the Epoque Baforce and Epoque Baforce Petite will result in an unbelivable realistic bass reproduction, which you have never experienced before.

In the now also available “no compromise” active versions of our subwoofers Epoque Baforce and Epoque Baforce Petite, each bass driver has it’s own 250 Watt/sin. amplifier and is directly coupled to it. That means 16 times 250 Watt/sin. = 4.000 Watt/sin. in total for the Epoque Baforce. And 8 times 250 Watt/sin. = 2.000 Watt/sin. in total for the Epoque Baforce Petite.

Hereby we reach a stunning high damping factor and get the best possible control over each bass driver. Additionally, we hereby also avoid influences through back EMI from the outset.

The massively oversized power supply can shortly deliver 4 times higher peak current as the amplifiers will need at maximum level. Always controlled by a mirco controller to permanently have monitored secured conditions.

Everything mounted in the loudspeaker foot, which is milled out of a full block of a specific aluminum alloy in order to get the perfect control over EMI, crosstalk, heat dispersion and resonance patterns.

New companct subwoofer Epoque Baforce Petite

We are happy to anounce that we finally extent our subwoofer range with a smaller, more compact subwoofer Epoque Baforce Petite.

Instead of the 16 pcs. special developed ultra lossless 9 inch subbass drivers of the Epoque Baforce, we are using 8 pcs. of exactly the same ultra lossless subbass drivers in the Epoque Baforce Petite.

Also, we are of course using exactly all the same proprietary technologies, like our stunning composite housing material, the impulse compensation and the multible bass array, wherein every subbass driver has it’s own closed chamber. Only everything in a more compact size.

The internationally renown chief editor Clement Perry of the American high end
online publication “Stereotimes” and one of his major reviewers Moreno Mitchell,
awarded our Lacorde Statement cable series the highly respected titels “Most
Wanted Component 2015 Award” and the “Publishers Choice Award”.

Their conclusion:
“2015 has been a banner year for me as far as audio equipment is concerned.
Upgrading all my audio cables with the Gobel Lacorde Statement series has taken
my system to a level I never thought possible. Extremely expensive, they bring so
many sonic goods that I might dare qualify them as affordable.”

A new review about our Lacorde Statement cable series

Moreno Mitchell from the audiophile magazine Stereotimes published a new review
about our complete benchmark loudspeaker cable series Lacorde Statement.

A few of his conclusions:
- For the first time, I get the sense that I can tap into the very soul and essence of
  the musician.
- The Göbel Lacorde Statement provided an upgrade to my system that usually
  comes by way of a new loudspeaker, amplifier/preamp - never a mere cable.
- The Göbel Lacorde Statement cables infused my system with such musical vitality
  and potency that I found myself hyper-ventilating on occasion, leading me to dis-
  cover, these Göbel Lacorde cables can produce a level of excitement that goes
  beyond just emotional.
- For the first time in my audio travels has a cable taken hold of my system with
  such conviction and grace.

Some press comments about our Munich High End 2015 presentation:

- “The sound quality of the Göbel High End Epoque loudspeakers is phenomenal, the
  appearance is beautiful beyond belief and the workmanship is fabulous! Unfortu-
  nately, that of course comes with a high price.” (fairaudio.de)
- "The Chopin Nocturnes on the big Fazioli grand piano sounded so marvelously real
  and relaxed.” (hifistatement.net)
- "A highlight of course was the installation of Goebel High End. As always it
  sounded unbelievable detached, clean and natural. Also the refined aesthetics
  exudes highest quality efforts. Without any doubt the best!” (hifilive.es)
- "Last year Göbel High End had the best sound of the show, and sure enough this
  year the sound was even better!" (MoizAudio)

Stereotimes review of our Epoque Reference and Epoque Baforce

Clement Perry the internationally renown chief editor of the American audiophile
magazine “Stereotimes” reviewed our Epoque Reference loudspeakers together
with our Epoque Baforce subwoofer and visited our premises during the Munich
High End show 2015.

Just a few of his conclusions:
    - “I have never heard a planar, electrostat or anything of its ilk perform to such
      high standards especially when it comes to melding its ultra-natural midrange
      and high-frequencies with its low-end.”
    - “Covering the frequencies between 30kHz - 170Hz essentially makes this
      Bending Wave driver a marvel of science. Listening to it perform this marvel
      was even more impressive than its specs.”
    - “In fact, I would have to say outside of the Epoque Reference's outstanding
      midrange it was its bass power, control and performance that stood out almost
      as much.”
    - “The clarity, speed and harmonic intonation of the bass going further up the
      frequency ladder was just as impressive as the lowest bass notes.”
    - “A speaker, dare I say, that I would enjoy owning and growing old with.”

Mono&Stereo review of our Lacorde Statement cable series

Matej Isak the chief reviewer and editor of the audiophile magazine “Mono&Stereo”
reviewed our complete benchmark cable series Lacorde Statement.
His judgement is absolutely clear:
    - “They were among the best; well actually the best cables I’ve pleasure to
      hear in my reference system in the terms of universal liquidity happening not
      only in the mid frequencies, but subordinately in the high and lower range.
      Yet, the radiant power and the “magic” of the mids were so captivating, that
      on the moments I’ve completely forgot about the designated labelling. One
      could say everything was harmonically correct and RIGHT!”

awarded the highly respected title “Best of Show” to the patented Göbel bending

“(...) There is something special about the Göbel speakers, likely due to it’s
unusual wideband driver and the crossover’s inherent lack of intrusion on the musical
signal. Digital sounded as resolved and easygoing as great analog, the highs
remaining pure, the lows resolving to the very depths of the recording -
impressive stuff in a less-than-ideal room.”

In the latest edition of HD+TV, the editors take a closer look at the bending wave
loudspeakers of the new Detaille Series.
- “The stage emerges incredibly spacious, with all the instruments and soloists.
Localization, dynamics and coherence time are excellent. Due to the vigorous
subwoofer, the lower octave segment plays smoothly.”
- ”The excellence of the bass range powerfully unites with the clarity of the bend-
ing wave speakers. The symbiosis is entirely successful and fascinates the listen-
ers. (...)” - “Once the stage is set, the ambitious listener is rewarded with a loudspeaker
which is unique regarding fine dynamics, dispersion and coherence."

Report: BFS Audio Report #188

"I walked up the aisle and was astonished, The Detaille loudspeaker from Göbel
High End was an eye catcher. (...) Astonished not only by the radical styling, the
Detaille's technology had me wondering where I had been the past few years.

It is a flat panel consisting of 9 layers of wooden membrane with precise laser-
cut incisions. The panel is housed in a metal frame. The grill attaches magnetically.
Sensitivity is 85dB. That small flat panel has a frequency response of
150Hz to almost 30 kHz. (Martin-Logans only go down to 400 Hz these days.)
Dispersion is 180 degrees front side, and 180 degrees rear side from 150 Hz to
5kHz. How they do it? I got no idea. They also have wall hanging models available.
The subwoofers have impressive specs. These are gonna sell like hot cakes
in Scandinavia."

the brilliant white or black finish, the Detaille series has been face-lifted with a
new magnetic cover made from exclusive acoustic cloth. In addition to this, the
driving units of the bending wave loudspeakers Detaille S and Detaille C have
been optimized which led to an even better performance in terms of resolution
and speed.
The Lacorde cable family has been extended with a top quality XLR-cable and

Review of our Detaille series from “The Wave” (Thailand)

"(...) Even most gentle sounds of classical instruments are reproduced and
become entirely audible (Masters of Classical Music Vol. 2: Beethoven). The violin
notes, from quiet to loud, are incredibly vivid.”

But I also tested the loudspeakers with jazz from Miles Davis and modern music
from Dave Grusin. The mid-frequencies sound especially realistic and very
smooth, so that the instruments are clearly separated.

Above all the depth of the emerging soundstage is much better than with con-
ventional loudspeakers. Yes, it is the loudspeaker system we waited for so long!
(...) And it's the first loudspeaker system, I can hear every day from morning to
night, without recognizing any kind of sound discolouration. Unlike conical loud-
speakers, the natural mid frequencies is the highlight of this bending wave loud-
speaker.

sets the main focus on a high grade sound performance. Therefore Oliver von
Kospoth, Director Sound & Digital Media at Grundig addressed Göbel Audio: "We
want the new Audiorama to be just as cool and innovative as its prototype from
the 70's, while making a quantum leap forward in terms of quality. After all, the
coming year is to host a lavish birthday party for Max Grundig, and only the finest
birthday gift is good enough."

After his visit of the Göbel premises close to Munich, where Oliver von Kospoth
enjoyed a presentation of the Göbel Detaille Series at the in-house listening
studio and gained insight into the development and production capacities of
Göbel, he was convinced. He was especially impressed that Göbel develops and
manufactures all high-end products exclusively in Germany. This supported his
decision to commission Göbel with the development of the new Audiorama series.

Göbel receives national research prize for future-oriented technology

Within the German support program for future-oriented start-ups (BayTOU),
the Bavarian ministry for economics and technology finances a new Göbel loud-
speaker project. After an extensive visit of the Göbel development centre, the
renown professor for electroacoustics at the university of Regensburg, Prof. Dr.
Ing. Manfred Zollner, certifies in his sonic expertise that main developer
Oliver Göbel has:
"good applied knowledge in the field of loudspeakers / acoustics , which consti-
tute a solid base for the necessary technical research. At no time at all did the
impression arise that Mr. Göbel is only going to resell external production goods;
in fact it was very obvious that he wants to launch a product of his own. (...)
Within the company inspection (...), the applying businessman showed extensive
acknowledgment introducing his idea and (...) presented well qualified premises
for it. The advanced prototypes of the loudspeaker were tested with different
kinds of music, whereas both visitors pointed out a very good sound reproduction.
"The fully developed product will be presented to the general public at the HIGH
END show in 2008 - Europe's most important show for audiophile sound
reproduction.

Reports in newspapers: AZ Wochenende & Münchner Merkur

Report: AZ Wochenende (05/2006)
"A small church with glass painting from the early 16th century. A pond, scenic
farm houses. Four streets, and at the end of the last one a modified cowshed. In
this building, in Holzkirchen, a district of Alling which belongs to Fürstenfeldbruck,
Göbel has it's place of business. Göbel manufactures loudspeakers. Loudspeakers?
To a true hifi-freak, this term sounds likely too profane for the bending wave
loudspeaker that founder Oliver Göbel developed. "Detaille" is the correct name
- enthusiasts become ecstatic describing it. (...)"

Report: Münchner Merkur (05/2006)
"Fürstenfeldbruck - The German consumer electronic industry is history. However,

fier specialist "Lindemann" from Gilching, a second hifi developer from West
Munich is entering the market for especially well trained ears. (...)"

Report: IHM 2006 (Messe München GmbH)

- Think tank craft industry: bending wave loudspeaker: canorous marvel from Alling
- innovative loudspeaker system from Göbel provides perfect sound experience and
  three-dimensionality
- demand from artists creates major turnover (...)

With it's appearance at the innovation park of the 57th international craft show in
Munich, the loudspeaker system caused a sensation. Meanwhile, the specialist work-
shop is working to full capacity. The assembling of one system takes about ten
hours and the demand is huge: Göbel's loudspeakers are treated as an insider tip
amongst artists who guest in Munich and follow the recommendation of their
fellow colleagues to pay Oliver Göbel's specialist shop a visit. There, the loudspea-
kers are being produced in small series of 20 units. Apart from artists, the customers
are mainly people with high expectations regarding crystal clear sound reproduction
with a remarkably high proportion being women. It is probably the design of the
loudspeakers which looks more like a modern plastic than a box that attracts
women."

"Young man gives up secure job at a global player, founds a start-up in a former
cowshed and sells his high-end products even to the Far East. (...)
The results sound impressive. "An experience for true connoisseurs" the
renowned magazine "Image Hifi" certifies, and the "Hifi Test Design Edition"
praises the "isochronic and in phase dispersion characteristics of the bending wave
panel with an accurate impulse performance, very good fine dynamic as well as an
outstanding resolution." (...)
It is people like Göbel who fight successfully against the tightened crisis within
the craft industry: "They are looking for high-end niches, are innovative, develop
service ideas and use the opportunities abroad. "Only those will survive who know
their business", says the president of the craftsmanship Hannover Walter Heitmül

Review of our Detaille series from “What Hifi” (Indonesia)

„It is only 109.3 cm tall and its shape is very unusual for a loudspeaker. But you
will be enchanted by its sound. (...)

One thing is for sure though, this piece of equipment will transform your living
room into a world of sound you have never experienced before. (...) The sound of
Jheena’s voice is weightless and untainted by any background noise, and the
accompanying instruments are separated from one another and clearly audible.
Notice the ‘light’ voice and the pure, woody reverb of the guitar. (...)

Combine the loudspeaker with the Detaille C loudspeaker and the Detaille Sub
subwoofer to enjoy the latest films or music. Wow.... I promise they make your walls
shake! (...) The music detaches itself from the speakers completely and appears
weightless. This allows you to locate individual voices and instruments on the
soundstage."

Review of our Detaille series from “Image Hifi” (Germany)

"(...) In terms of color as well as due to it’s discreetly curved body, the active
subwoofer goes perfectly with the Detaille S anyway. (...) It is really doing a very
good job, which means nothing less than a big recommendation. (...) the perfect
in-phase and isochronic dispersion, as well as the low resonance level of the
system exemplify perfect high end harmony. Absolutely astonishing is the crystal
clear and completely detached sound characteristic of the Detaille S, which shows
without any hardness, loosely and very clearly, what electronics and cables
(recommendation: Göbel’s own cables) are capable of.

(...) Another outstanding feature is the fantastic phase locked sound dispersion
of 180 degree, what supports the dipole characteristic of the Detaille S: The living
room is being acoustically and atmospherically flooded; the smallest details
become three-dimensional - and stay on the particular position, even if you leave
the (already very generous) “sweet spot”. An experience for a true gourmet.“

Review of our Detaille series from “Hifi Test Design Edition” (Germany)

“Most fresh faced speaker producers debut with conventional loudspeakers and
concentrate on engineering with a particular approach to detail. Not Göbel - the
newcomer presents a bending wave speaker as their first product - Respect! (...)

The use of the advantages of bending wave technology in the case of the Detaille
S has been just as successful as the overcoming of its weaknesses. Thanks to an
isochronic and in phase dispersion characteristic of the bending wave, the “Detaille
S” indulges you with an accurate impulse performance, very good fine dynamics
and excellent resolution. For relaxed enjoyment of sound, a long-winded position-
ing process is not needed, as the 180 degree sound dispersion in the listener’s
direction is very broad, so that exact location and tangible spacial depiction are
possible in many different set-ups - therefore the Detaille S does not restrict its
auditorium to one exact spot. (...) Well done for this successful debut!
