Vimberg has a bookshelf coming out


The Amea is $14,000.  There Diamond version price is $22,500.
The speaker is in the final production stages and will be available end of November - right on time with the production of newly announced products.  ****supposed to sound fantastic like other vimbergs...but 8500 upgrade for diamond version is steep.

I wonder how far into a room the Amea has to be placed. This is a 3 way design with a rear firing woofer.

The ceramic version of the Amea is in the ball park price range of the TAD ME1, The ME1 is an amazing monitor speaker (the best I have heard).
I wrote the Canadian importer of Vimburg speakers to ask him the following question.

Sorry for the late reply, we were very busy preparing for Toronto Audio Fest.

The woofer at the back is actually a passive radiator. It’s using the air pressure inside the cabinet to move so you can put it close to the wall without any problem.

Your room is perfect for Amea and you wouldn’t have bass problem even if you put it close to the front wall (let’s say 20-50cm distance).

The price of the Amea is USD $14,000 and the first batch should arrive in mid-November.

If you have any other question, please don’t hesitate to ask!

I am a little slow when it comes to audio, so I will need to figure out how  this passive radiator concept works.
