ALBERICH² SYSTEM

A Masterpiece of Integration
The Alberich² is the brilliant fusion of our celebrated Hagen monitor with a perfectly tuned bass system.

THE ALBERICH² – MOTHER & SON REUNITED IN MUSIC

The name Alberich harkens from Wagner’s Ring Cycle. She is the king of the dwarves and the powerful mother of Hagen - both are small in scale, but when combined, they pack a powerful punch. Following the worldwide success of our modular 9.88 concept, we set out to apply the same formula to a more affordable, room-friendly model. It can be driven by any amplifier that is able to handle the complex load of our widebanders. A preamp output should be present to drive the woofer section.

More Than Just a Subwoofer

At first glance, the Alberich² system may seem unconventional. After all, it pairs our compact Hagen monitor with the AST Ripol – a bass module that, in many ways, defies expectations. Some wonder: why such an elaborate solution for low frequencies?
The answer lies in our philosophy. The AST Ripol is not a subwoofer in the traditional sense. And Alberich² is not a hybrid system, but a fully unified two-way design that redefines what is musically possible in a compact footprint.

What makes the AST Ripol so unique?

  • Perfect Time Alignment – The AST Ripol works purely in the analog domain, without digital correction, latency, or artificial shaping. It is matched to the monitor both acoustically and mechanically, preserving the natural flow of the music.

  • Bass With Soul – Unlike conventional subwoofers that emphasize mass over nuance, the AST Ripol delivers agility, texture, and an almost electrostatic responsiveness – even in the lowest registers.

  • Seamless Integration – Alberich² sounds like one voice, not two components. Vocals stay anchored, spatial cues remain intact, and the emotional intensity is simply elevated.

We understand that others may offer simpler or less costly solutions. But we build for those who listen not with their habits, but with their hearts.

Alberich² is not a compromise. It is a statement.
