Marantz, the Japanese hi-fi stalwart, has just announced its first all-in-one wireless speakers: the Horizon and the larger, beefier Grand Horizon. They're big, circular beasts made with a luxury look and materials, and packing in huge amplification power and a lot of speakers. And they'll come at a high price when they launch in January 2025, with the smaller Horizon costing $3,500 / £3,250, and the Grand Horizon costing $5,500 / £5,250. (No Australian pricing has been confirmed yet.)
The circular design works in combination with the speaker arrangement, which is filled with multi-angled drivers to deliver Dolby Atmos audio, as well as expansive stereo sound. The Grand Horizon is equipped with eight drivers in total, comprising three tweeters (firing up, left and right), four mid-range drivers (firing up-left, up-right, down-left and down-right), and one "Gravity" bass driver in the center. That's all backed up by 860W of peak amplification power. This is contained in a 493 x 255 x 529.2mm (19.41 x 10.04 x 20.83 inch) body, with a built-in plinth made of marble.
