Special Edition Drivers: Richter's new Special Edition drivers are something to behold.

Bi-Wire Ready Cross-Over: A redefined bi-wire ready cross-over design using high-quality acoustic polypropylene caps with air cored and ferrite cored inductors for the midrange and top end circuit have been used with a large separate laminated core inductor feeding the new Bass driver for that Wizard Special Edition experience.

Just remove the Jumper plates for direct speaker wiring access to the High (Tweeter and mid-range drivers) and Low (Bass drivers)
About Richter

With over thirty years of designing and manufacturing speakers renowned for performance and value for money, the company has garnered in excess of 30 industry and government awards for excellence.

Our Take On The Richter Excalibur S6SE Speakers
The Richter design team is headed up by Dr. Martin Gosnell BE (Hons) PhD who has worked with Richter since approx. 2000 and is supported by the very experienced and highly respected Audio Engineer Brad Serhan. Together with the experience of audiophile owner Brian Rodgers they have taken Richter to the next level with the Excalibur S6SE flagship speakers. We always wondered what the talented folk at Richter could achieve if they didn't have to work within their self-imposed pricing limits and the Excalibur S6SE is the spectacular answer. It is, in every way, a major step forward for the brand and will definitely impress anyone shopping at this level. The Excalibur has a sense of dynamics and scale which feels cavernous and a three dimensionality which is uncanny. The top to bottom neutrality is particularly noteworthy which means this speaker plays nicely with any type of music and works in a surprisingly wide variety of spaces. If you are after a speaker to complete a value for money high end system, the Richter Excalibur S6SE deserves your close attention. Give them a listen today.
