Audio Insider, an AXPONA Podcast
Audiophiles Are Ditching Crossovers in Speakers (here's WHY)
27 Jun 2025
In this episode of the AXPONA Audio Insider Podcast, Lenny Florentine is joined by Harley Lovegrove from Pearl Acoustics. Broadcasting from Belgium, Harley shares the fascinating story behind the Model One loudspeaker, a single-driver, crossover-free design built from solid French oak. It's a minimalist speaker with a massive following, known for its lifelike sound and handcrafted quality. Harley talks about building his first speakers at age nine, his deep roots in classical music, and how Pearl Acoustics became a global company with a focus on purity, simplicity, and sustainability. He also introduces the company's new amplifier designs, including a tube amp and a class D model that features a unique relax mode for more laid-back listening. We also explore Harley's YouTube journey, his favorite videos, and his approach to reviewing both gear and music. From Sibelius to Billie Eilish, Harley brings the same passion to everything he does.
