Prana From Goldmund: wireless active speaker

Posted on 6th February 2019

Within an aluminium-finished Z-frame design, the new Prana includes a full active speaker system spouting 600W

The Prana offers a 3-way “Smart” active design plus a large, 229mm Audio Technology bass-driver and a 250W Telos amplifier within the lower, reflex-loaded enclosure.

Additionally, you’ll find a 25mm Scanspeak tweeter plus a 178mm Audio Technology mid-driver in the upper, sealed enclosure. These units are both powered by a 175W Telos amplifier each.

The Prana also uses Goldmund’s proprietary wireless system. By using either the supplied USB Dongle and a computer based music library or a suitable Goldmund wireless preamp-hub, you can connect multiple analogue and digital sources.

The speaker can also be connected using a wired SPDIF co-axial cable. Spanning 48 x 99 x 48cm, each speaker weighs 80kg. Price? £67,500.

My wife thought these speakers look like a weights rack that you might find in a gym.
I thought they look like an old robot out of Star Wars or Dr Who.
Might just about be the most ugly speakers around.
