Description: Freakuence!<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Weird little speakers? The Guru 8 doesn\u2019t do anything weird, but it reveals a surprising amount of space between instruments, with a clean tone in the high frequencies that never gets shrill. Great speakers! The driver integration feels seamless; you can\u2019t tell where the midrange driver ends and the soft dome begins.<\/span><\/div>\n

Background Information<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
The Guru 8 is a masterpiece of the hi-fi industry, developed with a focus on precision and clarity. The design philosophy, led by chief engineer Johan Ekelund, revolves around delivering natural sound reproduction. High-quality materials, such as Scandinavian plywood\u2014known for its acoustic properties\u2014were chosen for the cabinet. The internal wiring consists of pure copper for optimal signal transmission. Components are manufactured locally in Sweden, with a special emphasis on sustainability and quality. Thanks to advanced manufacturing methods, unwanted resonances are minimized, resulting in an unparalleled listening experience.<\/span><\/div>\n
Brand History<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Guru is a Swedish company based in Stockholm. It designs and manufactures loudspeakers, with all critical components manufactured in-house or under close supervision in Europe. The products are built to the high standards Scandinavian manufacturers are known for. Guru speakers are designed to be placed close to or against the rear wall and take advantage of the characteristics of the room to achieve high sensitivity and bass extension. They have low phase distortion and create a sweet field rather than a sweet spot, allowing multiple people in the room to enjoy the sound reproduction. The speakers maintain the correct sound image height whether the listener is sitting or standing.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
