In Crocodile Dundee voice, "Now THAT's a soundbahr."
The Steinway & Sons Model C is sold as a whole 2-channel or 4-channel system. An open baffle dipole design, it contains an AMT tweeter with ultrathin, folded Kapton diaphragm and neodymium magnet along with two magnesium midrange drivers. Two accompanying woofers in different sizes and finishes are intended for placement near the room corner. Each speaker weights 93.5lb.
As nice as the Model S soundbar sounded on Norah Jones’s “Cold, Cold Heart,” the Model C floorstanders beat it by a mile in for open sound and air. Bass was nicely controlled if a bit soft around the edges. I wouldn’t call the sound organic, but it should work very well in home theater set-ups. Please excuse the lack of pricing specificity—I heard several different numbers—but it’s above $100,000 for the Model S or the Model C.

We need a million dollar soundbar.
