HAGEN²
The “Herb Reichert” Speaker (Stereophile 04 2025)
Pure sound, uncompromised: The Hagen² Monitor delivers a remarkably linear response across the entire frequency range — free from any coloration caused by crossovers or passive components. The signal remains unaltered and crystal clear at all times.
What’s new in the H² generation?
An optimized horn contour and the newly developed AF-1.9 and AF-2A drivers offer enhanced linearity and significantly deeper bass. The exclusive AF-2A driver introduces the unmistakable, magical ALNiCo sound into the compact format of the Hagen².
Also new: The Full Metal Edition. Crafted entirely from 13 mm (0.5") thick aluminum panels, it weighs an impressive 50 lbs (26 Kg) and delivers a sound with equal substance and finesse.
The H² enclosure is designed as a short back-loaded horn, refined with our proprietary Voxativ Acoustic Stealth Technology® (AST®). This innovation suppresses unwanted resonances and standing waves, ensuring a pure, richly detailed soundstage.
The finish is no less refined: genuine piano lacquer gives the Hagen² a striking, high-gloss appearance that mirrors its sonic excellence.
Perfectly matched stands are available as an option, placing the drivers at the ideal listening height.
For extended low-end performance, we recommend pairing the Hagen² with our active Voxativ Alberich woofer system — tailored to your room and system.
The Purest Sound in a Compact Monitor
Hagen² delivers the full Voxativ sound signature to the listener: a naturally musical frequency response, unmatched resolution and transparency – all carried by exceptional signal purity and perfect phase accuracy.
Small, yet formidable
Three distinct driver options – each with its own musical soul:
AF-1.9 – The true fullrange performer: deep, dynamic, and effortlessly coherent.
AF-2A (ALNiCo) – For those who seek the legendary Voxativ Magic: warm, emotional, alive.
AF-2B – Engineered for ultimate resolution and micro-detail: precise, fast, revealing.
