The Von Schweikert Audio ULTRA.7 (also styled ULTRA 7 / ULTRA.seven) is a reference, full-range floorstanding loudspeaker using Von Schweikert’s multi-driver, front-and-rear radiation approach. Each 200 lb (90.7 kg) speaker combines three ceramic-cone woofers, a ceramic-cone midrange, a beryllium tweeter, a dual-ribbon front super-tweeter, and a rear Ambient Array comprising a horn-loaded magnesium tweeter plus ribbon super-tweeter. Its passive crossover is based on the company’s GAIN (Global Axis Integration Network) architecture. The Room Adjustment Control Suite provides independent 0.5 dB level adjustment for selected high-frequency/ambient drivers. It is offered in passive form, with an optional active bass upgrade using the Foundation Hybrid Bass Amplifier. The current manufacturer product page indicates that it remains an active model.
