Danish audio specialist Audiovector has unveiled two new limited edition finishes for its signature Trapeze Hi-Fi loudspeaker.
To be launched at High-End Munich (May 15-18), the Trapeze will now also be available in Italian Walnut with a pearl gloss, and refined Birds Eye Maple, in a matte finish. Just 30 pairs of each will be produced, making them as rare as they are ravishing.
Included in the package is a bespoke cable and spike set. The limited editions command a premium, £2,200 or £2,400 above the standard £15,500 price of Trapeze loudspeakers, depending on finish.
The Luxe Review enjoyed a preview of the new models, at Audiovector’s Copenhagen HQ, and can confirm that both do indeed look sensational. However, when Audiovector says the new models are limited editions, it means it. The complexities involved in producing such premium finishes preclude any additional releases, CEO Mads Klifoth told us.

The Trapeze loudspeaker does not adhere to the contemporary notion of minimalism. This is a enclosure designed with warmth, eccentricity, and – most importantly – purpose. The cabinet leans, asymmetrically, toward the listener, yet remains parallel to the rear wall. This ‘lopsided’ geometry is no aesthetic indulgence; it’s a functional solution to combat standing waves and unwanted resonances.
Crafted from hardwood board and hand-veneered in Copenhagen, each speaker is a testament to Danish artisanship. The new Italian Walnut finish shimmers with a depth that suggests candlelit concertos, while Birds Eye Maple radiates the quiet dignity of classic Scandi furniture design. There is nothing off-the-rack here. Every unit is a collector’s piece.
While the finishes are new, the heart of the Trapeze remains unchanged, and that’s a good thing. The 5-inch midrange driver is agile and expressive, perfectly tuned for vocals and acoustic textures, while a 12-inch bass driver delivers low-end that is not only powerful but precisely marshalled by an 8-inch isobaric companion mounted internally and ported to the rear.
The high-frequency duties are handled by an Air Motion Transformer (AMT) tweeter, a rare breed in modern speaker design. Unlike conventional dome tweeters, the AMT uses a pleated diaphragm that moves air with greater velocity and efficiency, yielding high frequencies that feel simultaneously airy and tactile.
The entire cabinet is acoustically braced to minimise colouration and distortion. There’s no guesswork here; this is engineering guided by ears and executed by hand. Click here to read our full review of this five star loudspeaker.
