Professional reviews

When the boxes were delivered, I honestly thought Arendal sent me monitors and not towers. When I unboxed them, my initial thought was, wow these are small, did I make a mistake? Upon unboxing, as with all Arendal speakers, the fit and finish goes way above their asking price. Dynamically, without question, the 1961 towers outperform what their smaller size would imply. Regardless of volume knob position, there is zero strain, and zero tonal change when the volume is raised way beyond normal listening levels. They produce a wide and deep soundstage that is far beyond what a speaker of this size should provide. Movie after movie, TV episode after episode, I’ve been extremely impressed with this tower and the rest of the 1961 speakers that I have purchased, so much so, that I’ve been eagerly looking through my video library for titles to rewatch. Highly recommended for sure...Luis Vazquez

Frequency response
Frequency response does not reflect maximum output but shows its true response in a anechoic chamber. Typically you will see an elevated response in the bass response below 40Hz in room due to room gain, which can add around 6dB pr. octave under 40Hz depending on the size of your room.
Polar response
The charts display frequency response measured at different angles, the sum of which is referred to as power response. Much scientific research has been undertaken on this subject and a linear power response has proven a substantial impact on the overall sound, because the frequency response is more even in all directions. This means an Arendal Sound speaker will be more tolerant of differences in room shape, size, construction and materials.
Impedance response
The impedance charts are electrical measurements of the loudspeaker’s resistance vs frequency.
Product compliance
CE marking is an administrative marking with which the manufacturer or importer affirms its conformity with European health, safety, and environmental protection standards for products sold within the European Economic Area (EEA).
RoHS is an abbreviation for “Restriction of (the use of certain) Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic Equipment”. This directive restricts the use of ten hazardous materials in the manufacture of various types of electronic and electrical equipment. It is closely linked with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE) 2002/96/EC which sets collection, recycling and recovery targets for electrical goods and is part of a legislative initiative to solve the problem of huge amounts of toxic electronic waste.
