Otello, Arindal & Florestan were Verity's latest and most advanced generation of loudspeakers. Consequently, very few of these models exist in the USA. This is particularly true of Arindal & Florestan models due to their much shorter respective production runs.
What makes this pair of speakers extra special is a combination of their unique finish and their age. (They are one of four Quilted Macore Arindals manufactured in total worldwide. This pair of speakers were delivered to the original and only owner in September of 2022.
Unfortunately, this unparalleled level of hand built loudspeaker was unsustainable given labor, parts, and material costs that exploded during the Covid period. Verity was forced to close its doors. For those hesitant to own a pair of Verity's given the above please consider the following:
The Audio Shoppe is pleased to be the official contact source for all matters related to Verity Audio Products for all North American customers, past, present, and future. We are in regular contact with the Verity principals and have obtained all permissions, information, records, and vendor contacts for all "critical" parts used in the construction of Verity Audio Loudspeakers, including all drivers ever used in every model of Verity Audio Loudspeakers built since their inception in 1995.
Still concerned? History bodes very well for Verity:
- Nearly 20 years of Parsifals (1996-2013) continue to be enjoyed, traded, and sought after. They're now a cult classic. I suspect that this will be the fate of all models that have been developed since!
- The precise drivers used by Verity in the Arindal are readily available along with every driver ever used in any other Verity model. We continue to support replacements. That said, of all of the Verity loudspeakers sold in the USA from 2013 to present, we have only replaced had to replace 3 drivers total.
- Crossover Technology: Verity has never utilized "liquid filled" capacitors. In fact, since 1996, Verity Audio owners/customers have experienced ZERO crossover failures!
- Finishes: Another unique quality of Veritys loudspeakers is their choice not to utilize traditional lacquer or enamel clear-coat or solid paint finishes, instead opting for far more durable polyester finishes. Verity Finishes are of "Steinway quality".
- Believe it or not now that Verity's closing has been absorbed by our industry and prices of subpar products skyrocket, we're actually seeing used Verity's in very good condition increase in price.
- Additional Reference Fact: I personally own and will retire and with a pair of Arindals in my personal home. (I know these speakers!)

Product Description:
"Arindal is a three-way floor-standing bass reflex loudspeaker with two detached boxes isolated by a platform. The upper cabinet houses a proprietary neodymium magnet ring dome tweeter and a full-range midrange driver. The lower cabinet houses an impressive woofer in bass-reflex configuration, facing towards the rear. It incorporates a unique multi-layer diaphragm made of an amalgam of paper and carbon which produces incredibly intelligible bass.
The two boxes are insulated by a solid aluminum platform equipped with special elastomers. The lower box is isolated from the floor by the MASIS (Mechanical & Airborne Sound Isolation System) base from Verity. Arindal features a breathtaking sensitivity of 93 dB SPL at 1 watt/1 meter, and inherits the best technologies from Verity Audio.
The Arindal speaker offers an impressive blend of electrical, mechanical and acoustic features essential for pure sound reproduction. Verity's designers have optimized the proportions of the boxes so that they adapt to all spaces and have carefully integrated high-quality components: Arindal is thus the undisputed choice for incomparable performance in all acoustic environments. Its absolute refinement respects the Verity Audio tradition of creating speakers that you will want to keep for a lifetime. With this true tour de force, Verity exceeds all expectations and leaves no stone unturned. We owed it to our fans!"

Arguably, Verity Audio owners are the most loyal speaker owners in audio given how rarely they re-sell. When they did, it was to upgrade to a better model. Seasoned owners of Verity's recent Otello, Arindal, and Florestan speaker models have been unanimous in providing comments to the effect, "These have to be the best speaker values in Audio". We can think of no greater compliment given the cost of high end speakers these days.
