Latest News: Richter Harlequin S6 Stereonet Review;

THE VERDICT

I tried hard to find flaws in this affordably priced loudspeaker, but it pretty much stumped me. What’s not to like about a sub-$2,000 speaker that’s designed in Australia, with an engaging and detailed sound and superb imaging to match? Factor in the fine walnut finish, proprietary drivers and excellent accessories, and Richter Audio’s Harlequin S6 makes an incredibly strong case for itself in value for money terms. Some may find its balance a little too bass-light, but this tonality will suit other people – especially with smaller listening rooms – and you can always add a subwoofer should you so wish. I tried to play “spot the compromise”, but it looks like I lost the game this time.
