The Living Voice R25A model was released in honor of the anniversary and has many improvements over previous models. The acoustics cabinet is built of a 750 wood mixture, the crossovers use copper coils with an air core, Living Voice's patented metallized polypropylene capacitors, and Living Voice's patented ductless wire-wound resistors. The crossover board itself is mechanically decoupled from the speaker housing.
In the Living Voice Vox Olympian horn speakers, almost everything is handmade in England, with the exception of the Japanese tweeter and super tweeter, as well as the silver Kondo KSL-SPz internal wiring cable. There is not a single parallel plane in the two-meter-long bass horn. The cabinets are made of solid oak, beech, wenge and maple. The upgraded Vitavox 300 Hz scattering horn is responsible for reproducing the medium frequencies here.
The Living Voice R80 design is based on the elliptical Scan-Speak tweeter and a pair of 8" drivers with an elliptical coil and is designed to work with vacuum tube single-ended triode amplifiers (sensitivity is 92 dB). As in all Living Voice speakers, the precision crossover components are located in a separate external unit.
