Stenheim will these days present their new "compact" speaker Alumine Three. Knowing Jean Pascal and hearing Alumine two and five I have no doubt this will be a bingo one...

Indeed, I think it looks very very interesting. Unfortunately slightly out of budget for myself, but still very nice. I hope to hear it in Munich in May.

A bit confusing to call it "Three" when they already had the "3 Way" in the product line, and it's often called just Three.
 
So Mike you‘re saying the three needs a big room?

I have heard the Alumine 5 at a dealer where the room in my memory is 6-7 meter long and 4 meter wide , they was placed on the short wall and doing very good. That room is also treated acoustically , so even with the one af the long sides being windows it still plays really good.
 
From AVNirvana forum:

"AXPONA is off to a strong start. One of the first rooms I hit up with my fellow AV NIRVANA-ers was the Fidelis room, where they were exhibiting their Stenheim Speakers. Stenheim is a high end swiss speaker brand of speakers that I've heard a few times before. This time arauond I was able to take a listen to both the New Alumine 3 and existing Alumine Two speakers.

What surprised me was how good these sounded. I've been a fan of their industrial design for some time, but not had a time to hear many of their speakers. The Alumine Two, their entry level speaker, was especially nice sounding for its compact size. Notably throwing a wide and believable soundstage. I found them both tonaly neutral, which was nice to hear."

I'm curious what the differences between Magico, YG, and Stenheim is in aluminum speaker-land. I'm well familiar with the first two.

Two are sealed. One is ported. Au materials are just half the battle. Stenheim sounds great and is super efficient. But like any ported speaker (except maybe downward ported like Salon 2’s), they need room to breath.

I’ve heard them in the big Munich rooms sound incredible.
