The Master 2 is a slim floor-stander with two 5,25” carbon-coned drivers and a sealed AMT tweeter. The Master 2 is a 2.5-way speaker with the second woofer assisting in the power demanding bass region. The 2.5’s cabinet is heavy, braced and curved, with carbon reinforcements.
The Master 2 has a solid foundation in the Nordic design tradition.
It is simple, sleek, elegant and visually square when seen directly from the front, and curved and organic when seen from an angle.
The rounded edges of the cabinet reduces diffraction and minimizes the sonic imprint on the frequency response. It does not matter if your home is modern or classic, the timeless design of the Master 2 will fit in any home.

Personal Audio:
“Crazy Violence
…the Master 2 is so infectiously dramatic that I was instantly hooked on this sound.
Conclusion
For me, the Master 2 is a starry-eyed speaker that, when turned on, immediately creates a drum of irresistible gravitas, throwing emotion into the music. I would say that the Master 2 has not only the freshness of Kodély Chapin, but also the frenzy, violence, psychedelia and darkness of MUSE, which can be both naturally elegant and passionate to the end.”
I-Fidelity review:
“The Ars Aures Audio is a loudspeaker with a quality of experience, honest and rich in sound, yet uncritical of placement and an elegant appearance. You can tell that its makers have invested a lot of love, musicality, knowledge and dedication. Elsewhere, it seems, prices are rising exponentially, and this is not always matched by an equal leap in quality. But Ars Aures Audio offers a hell of a lot of loudspeakers for comparatively little money, and that can really be called sensational. A very clear recommendation, outstanding!”
