Xavian XN Carisma

• Naturally warm, romantic and colorful... A sense of intimacy and realism can be achieved in many ways. Dynamics and transparency seem to be the most obvious, but Barletta can achieve this and by the intensity and variety of colors. I like this diameter. That's what makes it unique Carisma. 
• Carisma is a very good column. They have a soul and they know how to convey emotions stored somewhere in between waves. To really enjoy them, you have to satisfy two basic requirements - have a big room and amplifier speakers holding an iron hand. If they are assured, you will have more fun than some sets for more money.

Xavian XN Carisma

• The XN Carismas were not in the least intimidated by the densely arranged music, nor the tonal range of the recording. They treated the recording with poise and dignity, digging deep into the emotion of the music, and also allowing the acoustic ambience and scale of the performance to come to the fore.
• ... Those with smaller rooms should look to Xavian’s extensive stand-mounted speaker catalogue instead. 
• Beautifully presented, with bespoke drivers, these floorstanders find a satisfying mix of presence and finesse. Best in larger rooms, and upper treble can sound uncompromising.
