What kind of speakers do your get for 40 grand? In Verity’s top-of-the-line eXR speaker lineup, you’ll get a pair of the company’s new Sarastro II speakers, priced at half the cost of Verity’s Lohengrin II flagship model. Unfortunately, the $40,000 price tag only includes a standard Italian lacquer finish. If you want another veneer, you’ll have to pony up more cash.

Technical details:

The Sarastro II uses a resonance-free aluminum foil ribbon tweeter, a 6″ midrange, an 11″ woofer, all of which are custom-made and proprietary to Verity. As in all of Verity’s two-piece cabinet designs, the woofer is mounted in a rear-firing configuration.

The Sarastro II’s frequency response is rated at 20Hz - 60kHz, with 93dB/W/m sensitivity. Power handling is claimed from 18 watts to “unlimited.”
