Danish audio innovator OePhi has introduced its highly anticipated Lounge Series loudspeakers at HIGH END Munich 2025, earning widespread acclaim for bringing the brand’s signature sonic purity and holographic soundstage to a broader audience. Comprising the Lounge 2 stand-mount and Lounge 2.5 floor standing models, this new range represents OePhi’s most accessible designs yet, blending precision engineering with elegant aesthetics at a price point that defies expectations.

Precision Engineering for Truthful Sound

Founded by former Harvard scientist Joakim Juhl, OePhi has built a reputation for crafting loudspeakers that prioritize “truthful sound” through meticulous design and proprietary technologies. The Lounge Series upholds this philosophy, delivering musically engaging and emotionally resonant performance free from distortion and coloration. Handcrafted in Denmark, both models reflect OePhi’s commitment to sonic neutrality, ensuring every musical detail is reproduced with exceptional clarity and realism.

The Lounge 2, a compact stand-mount loudspeaker, boasts a bandwidth of 45Hz–27kHz, 87dB sensitivity, 8Ω nominal impedance, and 75W power handling. Measuring 35 x 18.5 x 30 cm and weighing 6.5kg, it offers remarkable imaging, transient speed, and control, making it ideal for smaller spaces or discerning listeners seeking precision in a compact form.

The Lounge 2.5, a 1-meter-tall 2.5-way floorstanding speaker, extends the range’s capabilities with a 35Hz–27kHz bandwidth, 89.5dB sensitivity, 6Ω nominal impedance, and 150W power handling. Weighing 15kg, it delivers greater low-frequency extension and scale while preserving the clarity and openness that define the Lounge Series. Both models are available in Oak, Walnut, Black Ash, and Satin White finishes, blending seamlessly into any living space.

Innovative Technologies for Unparalleled Performance

The Lounge Series incorporates OePhi’s proprietary technologies to tackle core challenges in audio reproduction. The Time Compensated XO ensures phase-accurate driver integration, while Transient Integrity Circuitry preserves dynamics and reduces system noise. Additionally, low-energy storage cabinets minimize resonance, supporting a natural soundstage and exceptional temporal accuracy. These innovations work in unison to deliver a performance that punches far above the series’ price point, rivaling more expensive systems.

According to reviews, the Lounge 2 and 2.5 have been praised for their transparency, coherence, and ability to reveal musical nuances without artificial embellishment. The Lounge 2, priced at £2,695/€2.990, has been lauded as a gateway to high-end audio, while the £4,495/€4.990 Lounge 2.5 offers floor standing scale with the same meticulous attention to detail, making both models exceptional value for handcrafted Danish designs.

Availability and Demonstrations

The OePhi Lounge Series is now available through Airt Audio’s select UK retail partners, with demonstrations underway across the country. Retailers and prospective partners can order the full range directly through Airt Audio. For those interested in experiencing the Lounge 2 or Lounge 2.5 firsthand, contact Airt Audio to arrange a demo or inquire about review opportunities.

For potential customers in the Benelux or France we’d like to refer to Actual Hifi, the designated distributor. With the Lounge Series, OePhi has democratized its pursuit of sonic purity, offering audiophiles and music lovers an accessible entry into high-end audio without compromising on performance. The Lounge 2 and 2.5 are poised to redefine expectations, delivering Danish craftsmanship and musicality to living rooms everywhere.

Publisher

Marco Lisi is the publisher of Best of High End, part of AV Concepts BV. His path into audio started early: as a teenager he was drawn into the world of free radio, presenting shows and living immersed in music every day. In his early twenties he ran his own production studio for five years, creating jingles and commercials — hands-on training in sound design, pro-audio workflows, and critical listening through studio monitors that still shapes how he evaluates gear today. He also spent years DJing in clubs before moving into publishing, first at two earlier online magazines before founding Best of High End. His hi-fi and home cinema passion was inherited from his father, an inveterate system-swapper. Marco's first setup — a confirmation gift — paired AKAI separates with entry-level Bowers & Wilkins speakers, a brand he stayed loyal to for years as his system grew from stereo into full surround and home cinema. Like many enthusiasts, he went through an extended "audiophile" phase chasing the next upgrade, before settling into a more grounded view: gear as a means to enjoy music and film, not an end in itself. Years of critical listening have given him a well-trained ear — the ability to characterize a system or pinpoint a change in the chain quickly and accurately. Just as important, his teaching background (a Belgian "regent" degree in Dutch language) gives him the tools to translate those listening impressions into clear, readable writing.
