Jasper 23 loudspeaker.
Jasper 23 - the smallest of the Jasper series: sound signature, class and design of bigger brothers in a form intended for smaller rooms.
As we did in it’s bigger brothers case, we entrusted the playback to proven speakers of the Danish Scanspeak. The transducers used have been specially selected in a series of acoustic measurements and hours of subjective tests. Lows and mids are run by a pair of famous 15 cm Revelators, with their characteristic cuts designed to reduce membrane’s distortion and its standing waves. We entrusted the treble to a silk tweeter with an ultra-light 0,18-gram vibrating system. This tweeter is characterized by extreme speed, and effortless reproducing the smallest details.
When designing the cabinet, we made every effort to create the perfect conditions for the operation of the speakers used. Taking advantage of our experienced engineers and extensive research facilities (including an anechoic chamber and laser accelerometer), we have ended up with a housing without any cuboidal forms, with aligned acoustic centers of the speakers in the most critical mid-treble section, and minimalised diffraction. The extreme stiffness of the cabinet was achieved thanks to high-class, thick MDF boards, while the front is made in the sandwich technology. These treatments, together with precisely placed structural reinforcements, ensure the signifficant reduction of all self-resonances and distortions.
The effect of the above efforts fully met our assumptions: design, quality and character of the Jasper line enclosed in a small, slim and elegant cabinet. Jasper 23 offers enormous possibilities of rendering sound space and huge (considering its size) potential of reproducing the lowest frequencies.
The columns are dedicated for use in rooms with a floor area from 18 to 35 m2.

A pair of our Jasper 23 fell into the hands of Tomek Karasiński, the editor-in-chief of Stereolife magazine. After the test, he awarded our Jasper with the "High End" award! Oh Boy… We still can't believe it! 😊
The StereoLife editors were astonished not only with superb finish quality of the Jaspers, but also with engineering virtuosity and, most importantly, with their sound.
"(...)First-class woodwork quality, curved casings with a front wall made in the sandwich technique and beautifully placed varnish create a spectacular visual effect. (...)"
"(...)All the clicks, murmurs and whistles are substancial, as if the Jaspers 23 had some extra, invisible tweeters responsible only for those noises. To this we should add very good dynamics and space, which (...) allows the listener to virtually sit in the room with the artists. (...)"
"(...)The sound is natural, perfectly balanced and coherent. The bass goes low enough, it has a perfect timing and a lot of what we love so much - "the meat". The mids are very organic, maybe a little softened, but still expressive and clear. Treble - probably the best in the whole list, perfectly combining resolution and power with high reproduction culture. (...)"

Jasper's 23 review from Szymon Faber.
We were quite confident, but frankly a bit afraid at the same time of the author's punchiness. Unnecessarily, it turns out 🙂 .
"(...)(Jasper 23) … are in many ways on the edge of hi-end zones for an obscenely low price. I do not know a second, mass-produced set of loudspeakers with such expensive components and a retail price of around PLN 20,000. With a foreign label in the front, it can easily be 5 or 6 in the price and no one would have the slightest complaint. (...)"
"(...)The high tones are nice to listen to, sufficiently tangible and clear. They have a pleasant hint of analog sound, which well compensates for the quick nature of the Revelators. (...)"
"(...)The vocals are delivered in a strong and coherent way. The coherence is not disturbed and the expression and dynamics of the midrange are a very strong asset. Regardless of whether we fancy Metallica albums or Anna Maria Jopek's vocal performances, we will be fully satisfied and thankfull for choosing Jasper for your set. (...)"
"(...)Like its the bigger brothers, Jasper 23 exhibits an outstanding quality of the lowest registers. (...)"
"(...)In the ocean of bass trash in this price range, the Pylons set a new quality. The monotonous bass pulp isn't present in the Pylons, the Jasper bass is very close to hi-end roots. If someone values quality over quantity and prefers to eat a steak instead of a chain-restaurant burger, this is the right choice. Rock, pop and jazz fans will be pleased, enjoying the verve and clarity. (...)"
