"I still have a great deal to learn about the Maxima Amator's design and sonic performance, but I'm ready now to pass judgment on their appearance: The speakers are absolutely stunning. The enclosure is built with 1" (25 mm) slabs of solid walnut and the front baffle and rear panel are covered in soft leather. The plinth to which the loudspeaker comes attached is a gorgeous piece of black marble with extensive white, tan, and brown veining. It is very difficult not to touch these things, to caress them, when you walk past."
