These look and sound great. The value is outstanding for the performance and aesthetic.Samuel
Love the fit and finish of this speaker. Packaged well. Sounds great and integrates really well with the 1723 S center for home theater.Humberto De Santiago
Ich bin wirklich sehr zufrieden mit dem Arendal 1961 5.2 Set :) es wird in einem 18 Quadratmeter kleinen Wohnzimmer betrieben, und dafür ist es ja auch gemacht, sehr klare Auflösung, sehr Leistungsstark und das bei der Größe der Lautsprecher... einfach nur Top. Ich werde auf jeden Fall noch auf Auro 3D mit den 1961 Height aufrüsten. Der Kundensupport von Arendal ist wirklich herausragend, egal bei welchen Fragen bekommt man sehr Zeitnah eine Hilfreichen und freundliche Antwort. Absolute Empfehlung von mir! :)))Andreas Bauer
Dont be fooled by the size. Its a truly amazing speaker.Ordinary Clown
Beautiful and powerfulAndreas Grundström
Incredible value for the money: spikes are more than welcome, gives nice aesthetics to the look. The details are there, clear, warm. Sounds excellent for music also, Atmos or stereo. No cheap vinyl, yes it matters! Thank you Arendal!Árpád

More details and features
1961 Tower is a real wolf in sheep’s clothing. It’s a relatively compact tower speaker, but in typical Arendal Sound fashion, it offers dynamics, realism and sound pressure you wouldn’t expect from a speaker this size. Everything about this speaker is custom designed and developed by our engineers, there are no off-the-shelf components found in other speakers. Well, unless you count other Arendal Sound speakers, as its borrowing quite a bit of tech from its larger brothers in the 1723 series. And of course, the cabinets are heavy and sturdy, made in HDF.

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.
