WOLF VON LANGA 12739 ULTIMA

The premier class: WOLF VON LANGA ULTIMA

WVL 12739 ULTIMA

The WVL ULTIMA was designed to be a loudspeaker without economic or technological limitations. The goal was to create a loudspeaker with unrivaled sonic potential. A very demanding task - but also the dream of every loudspeaker designer.

Since his youth, Wolf von Langa has questioned the potential of various existing devices. Because of his love of music, analyzing individual audio components and looking for ways to develop and significantly improve them has always been one of his favorite pastimes. The ULTIMA project was a dream come true, based on his vast knowledge of loudspeaker manufacturing.

For the ULTIMA project, Wolf von Langa drew on the most innovative technologies - material sciences, state-of-the-art component technologies and research results. So it's no wonder that the new ULTIMA incorporates the best of Wolf von Langa's concept. ULTIMA's key technologies and features are new and unique.

This speaker takes the naturalness, order and finesse of musical performance to a whole new level.

Let us surprise you and visit us in Chicago, Illinois, USA, Axpona 2024, and Munich, Germany, High End 2024, in Atrium 4.2 room F231C and room F231F where we celebrate the premiere.

Others about the electromagnetic technology:

J. Hughes about the difference between permanent and electro magnets: This new version features a driver with a field coil — an electromagnet where a DC current creates its magnetism. An ancient technology by audio standards, field coils were used back when permanent magnets had limited strength. Nowadays, nearly all modern loudspeaker drive units use a permanent magnet for the motor — it's a simpler, cheaper, more elegant solution. Consequently, the field coil has largely been consigned to the dustbin of history. Yet the field coil principle never entirely disappeared...

A. Grove, Chief Designer, Audio Note (UK): This is where field coil drivers are conceptually, and audibly, superior to permanent magnet drivers: They are more transparent and detailed, not with unnatural filigree but by way of lower signal-related hash. The effect is not that there is more in terms of quantity from the speakers, there isn’t, there’s actually less. They sound calmer, more relaxed and graceful, yet there is now more information – in terms of tonality, subtle inflexion, and atmosphere. What was previously obscured is now revealed. The scales have fallen from your ears!
