The fullest expression of Arendal Sound, without limiting decisions to fit rooms, conventions, or restraint.
CRAFTED WITH PRECISION.
INSPIRED BY NORWAY
Inspired by the Norwegian town of Arendal’s rich history, the flagship 1528 Series represents over a decade of meticulous design, analysis, testing, and most importantly, listening.
At Arendal Sound, we are committed to delivering an outstanding quality of materials and fidelity. The 1528 Series is the pinnacle of our range — where innovative Nordic engineering meets a serious passion for incredible sound.
THE NEXT LEVEL OF ARENDAL SOUND
Designed for discerning listeners who demand immersive, high-end audio for both music and movies, the 1528 Series builds on lessons learned from the award-winning 1723 Series in a fresh 3-way design, delivering even greater power and precision. We know you don’t buy premium audio equipment on a whim, but 1528 Series speakers are an investment in sound that won’t simply fill your room; they will transform it.
PERFECTED IN NORWAY
The 1528 Series stands out with precise, innovative Nordic engineering and each hand-built speaker undergoes rigorous testing to meet our uncompromising standards. Built with higher-grade components, such as the unique 28mm lithium-magnesium tweeter, every detail is crafted for exceptional clarity and depth. Backed by meticulous design, an unyielding commitment to quality, and a risk-free 60-day home audition, this is sound you can trust.
LET US TAKE YOU ON A TRIP
Let’s be clear — 1528 Series speakers are BIG. Not only in terms of sound, but also size. But a wide selection of speaker types caters for a variety of room dimensions, and there’s a choice of either Basalt or Polar finishes. Whether you’re after full-size towers or slim bookshelves, our dedicated team of in-house customer experience specialists are on hand to find the perfect audio solution for your space.
THE 1528 EFFECT
Great sound has the power to evoke emotions, to transport you to another time and place, to create unforgettable memories, and even improve mental well-being. Equally at home in a two-channel stereo set up, or as part of a thrilling home cinema, the 1528 Series aims to take your listening experience to a new level, bringing you ever closer to the music and movies you love.
Like a live concert
in your living room
The 1528 Series makes this possible with its unique 3-way design, custom Carbon-Graphene midrange driver, lithium-magnesium tweeter, alongside other extraordinary features we designed with the discerning listener in mind.
CABINET
AHEAD OF THE CURVE
Every speaker in the 1528 Series line-up features a stiff, 25mm thick HDF (high-density fiberboard) cabinet construction designed to eliminate resonance. The curved, 85mm hand-crafted, front baffle ensures that each driver is perfectly directed to the listening position, eliminating phase discrepancies. The result? Outstanding transparency, dynamics and soundstage.
Tweeter & waveguide
ON A HIGH NOTE
At the heart of every speaker in the 1528 Series, is a custom premium 28mm lithium-magnesium tweeter, offering unparalleled detail and dynamics. Housed within a controlled directivity waveguide, and finished with an acoustic lens, it ensures that high frequencies are stunningly clear, detailed and precisely directed for optimal sound dispersion across your listening space. It contributes to an expansive soundstage that fully immerses you in your favorite music and soundtracks.
Midrange
LIFELIKE CLARITY
The light and stiff materials in the custom 5″ Carbon-Graphene midrange driver provide exceptional accuracy and dynamics while reducing distortion to the bare minimum. It delivers rich, natural sound that seamlessly blends with the crisp highs generated by the tweeter, making dialogue and musical detail come alive with incredible realism. A perfect partner for the tweeter-waveguide combination.
Woofer
DEEP, DYNAMIC BASS
Our new, custom-designed 8″ aluminum long-throw bass drivers feature a prism structure for added stiffness and have inverted surrounds for a sleek, integrated design. They give a dynamic performance with deep, impactful bass that you feel as much as you hear. A stylish, rubber-backed, magnetically attached, steel grille will keep sticky little fingers away from the action.
Reviews from our customers
NEW
The 1723 Subwoofer Series, Refined in Basalt
Real power speaks for itself. The 1723 Subwoofer 1S and 2S have long set the benchmark for performance that rivals hi-end models costing many times more. Now, they carry a finish that reflects their true place in our lineup.
Many of you have asked for subwoofers to visually match your 1528 setup. With Basalt, that match is here. A perfect companion to our flagship finish, alongside White Satin for those pairing with Polar.
BUY DIRECT from
ARENDAL SOUND
Buying direct removes uncertainty — about pricing, advice, and long-term ownership.
By selling without distributors or retail layers, we stay accountable for the entire experience: how our products are built, how they’re explained, and how they’re supported over time.
No Hidden Margins
By removing distributors and retail markups, pricing reflects the product itself — with more of your budget going into engineering, materials, and quality control instead of sales layers.
Advice Without Sales Pressure
With no dealers, quotas, or commissions, guidance is based on your room, listening habits, and system goals, by specialists — not on what needs to be sold.
Proven Where It Matters: At Home
Because sound depends on the room, evaluation happens in your own space, with a 60-day home audition, free returns (USA & EU mainland), and support during setup.
Support That Extends Beyond the Sale
Selling direct creates a long-term responsibility, backed by consistent platform design, spare parts availability, and a 10-year warranty.
Direct-to-consumer isn’t about shortcuts.
It’s about clarity, accountability, and long-term confidence.
