TINTORETTO
- Positioning: The entry-level model in the Alsyvox lineup.
- Description: Features a compact design, making it ideal for smaller rooms ranging from 15 to 50 square meters. Maintains the same high-quality components as larger models but in a smaller form factor, which makes it more accessible for those with limited space and budget. Offers high sensitivity at 93dB, allowing compatibility with a wide range of amplifiers, similar to the Botticelli but with a smaller woofer surface.
BOTTICELLI
- Positioning: Positioned as a mid-range model, suitable for medium-sized rooms.
- Description: Features a balance of size and performance, recommended for rooms between 25 and 100 square meters. Offers a slightly higher sensitivity of 94dB compared to Tintoretto, providing a broader dynamic range and deeper bass response. The option to upgrade with external crossovers enhances its resolution and transparency, setting it apart from the Tintoretto and aligning it closer to the Caravaggio in terms of performance.
CARAVAGGIO
- Positioning: A high-end model, made on request, and is more exclusive than the Botticelli.
- Description: Features an advanced four-way design, which includes a new ribbon midrange, making it suitable for larger rooms from 40 to 120 square meters. Offers a more complex soundstage with its additional midrange compared to the Botticelli, and its high sensitivity of 94dB allows for versatile amplifier pairing. The option for dedicated subwoofer panels further distinguishes it from the Botticelli and Tintoretto.
RAFFAELLO
- Positioning: A premium model, offering a symmetrical design for improved room interaction.
- Description: Features a double midtweeter and woofer configuration, providing higher dynamics and resolution than the Caravaggio. Recommended for rooms larger than 50 square meters, offering better imaging and interaction with room acoustics. The inclusion of XX quality crossovers as standard elevates its performance.
MICHELANGELO
- Positioning: The flagship model of the Alsyvox lineup.
- Description: Features a groundbreaking fully symmetrical three-panel design, offering the highest dynamics and resolution in the lineup. Designed for very large rooms, with a minimum width of 6 meters, and features a sensitivity of up to 98dB, surpassing the Raffaello. Its extensive emission surface and advanced crossover design provide exceptional soundstage and bass depth.

Our take on the brand
Used
AlsyVox
What if you spend a bit more?
Its width is 0.69m (27″) with a total height of 2.03m (80″), a weight of 150Kg (333lb) per channel excluding crossovers and a woofer surface of more than 1 sqm (11sqft) on the two channels. It comes with 2 acrylic external passive crossovers using exclusive topology, connecting cables between speaker and crossover are included.
These standard crossovers have dimensions of 510x330x130mm weight 30Kg including acrylic transparent base and are using same quality components to X crossovers for Botticelli or Tintoretto, also XX quality is available on request with a size of 680x450x130mm weight 50Kg each. Difference is clearly audible with higher resolution and transparency, like upgrading the speakers by one or two levels.
Also a separate dedicated subwoofer panel (one each channel) is available and it is recommended only in very big rooms from 80sqm (800sqft). High sensitivity of 94dB makes possible to use virtually any amplifier. It is recommended for rooms of 40sqm (400sqft) to 120sqm (1200sqft).

Our Summary
Product Strengths
- Vivid and lifelike realism in timbre, imaging, transient speed, resolution, physical energy, and dynamics make it sound closer to live music
- Presents a kind of physicality to the sound, not just in bottom-end weight—but in tangibility and presence of instrumental and vocal images
- Extraordinary vividness and tangibility of instrumental and vocal images, with a very present, immediate, and upfront spatial presentation
- Remarkably easy to drive, it will play loudly, and delivers fabulous bass weight and low-end dynamic authority
- Presents a uniform voice, tonally and dynamically, from the bass to the top treble, with zero discontinuity between drivers
Product Considerations
- To realize its full potential, you need to position the speakers away from the backwall, which can be a challenge in many homes
- Moving the speakers back toward the wall behind them slightly diminished the depth and feeling of the soundstage having no boundaries
- Removing the speakers from the flight cases and assembling the base and feet is a delicate and time-consuming process
Comparisons (according to reviewers)
- The Rhapsody room in Dallas was built to house both AlsyVox and the Magico M9
Takeaway: The AlsyVox Caravaggio is a high-end loudspeaker that delivers a thrilling and realistic music experience, unlike any other. If you want amazing sound, this could be the speaker for you

Our take on the brand
Experience Clarisys Audio's Auditorium for ultimate sound quality. Boasting neodymium magnets and a double-sided bass panel, double-sided midrange, and double-sided treble. All drivers are 100% identical, giving you perfect coherence. The Impedance is 7ohm on average and never drops below 6ohm! The ribbon midrange starts at 600Hz and is a multi-segmented 7-trace design with 42mm width--the widest ever put into a speaker. The three-trace ribbon tweeter starts at 9000Hz, and the rigid aluminum substructure prevents flexing. High-quality copper foil internal wiring ensures exceptional signal transfer and musicality. Each speaker weighs 604 lbs plus an external crossover, which is color matched.
Our Summary
Product Strengths
- Experienced a 'wall of sound' from the speakers
- These speakers do not need room treatment
Product Considerations
- Extremely well-built, resulting in a thousand-pound shipping weight
- Speakers purchased at Audium come with a service, where if the buyer has issues, someone will fly to the buyer's home and fix them
Takeaway: The Audium speakers offer a phenomenal sound experience without needing extra sound treatment in the room. The build is solid, and the company will even fly to the buyer's house to fix them.

Our take on the brand
The Model C speakers is for those who seek the live dipole sound and demand enhanced bass for music and movies. The formula is simple: take the legendary Model D, then scale down the footprint and add powerful boundary woofers. The result is an attention-grabbing statement system that sets a new standard for full-bodied bass reproduction. Dipole speaker The Model C’s compact, floor-standing dipole design emits equal, natural sound from both sides of the cabinet – forward and backward. Thus it produces sound that interacts with the room much like a live musical instrument, creating audio that can’t be compared and a statement that can’t be ignored.
Our Summary

- Replicates the resonance of live instruments due to open speaker design
- Digital from source to driver, minimizing sound distortion

Product Considerations
- The only weak link might be musical taste
Takeaway: The Model C delivers incredibly precise audio, replicating live instrument resonance with minimal distortion. If pure sound is desired, and taste in music aligns, it is a great pick.
