I’m one of the IKEA faithful.

And Norwegian firm Arendal are the latest to make me look at my speaker setup with new eyes.

Arendal 1961

They come in two hand painted colors (as you might expect) black and white.

They’re based around waveguide tweeters and custom drivers for some top notch audio quality.

It’s that aesthetic that pulls me in, though.
