Moon by Simaudio creates their first Loudspeaker: Voice 22. Here and in Stock!

Moon by Simaudio has just unveiled their very first loudspeaker, the Voice 22. A unique bookshelf speaker that literally appears to float/hover above wherever it stands.

We have our black floor models ready to audition, and have both the black and white options in stock. These speakers will be offered at $3,000/pair, and come with floating table top stands. (There are optional dedicated metal floor stands available to order). We are loving their first foray into loudspeakers. You can read more on these speakers here and here.
