All Things Xavian - A Niche Speaker Brand from the Czech Republic by Roberto Barletta.

[global rhythms]

There are hardly any reviews of Xavian speakers on the forum. As such, Xavian seems to be a very niche speaker brand with limited online reviews. Additionally, it appears there are currently no Indian dealers for Xavian speakers. AV Lounge in Chennai used to be one, but they no longer deal with them.

I would like to use this opportunity to start a discussion thread about Xavian speakers. Owners of Xavian speakers are encouraged to share their purchase and user experiences, opinions, reviews of speaker models they own, and post pictures to help and guide others.

With that, I will start with my question. I have a query for the knowledgeable forum members about the Xavian brand.

1. Currently, I am considering purchasing the Xavian Joy and need some guidance. The Bonbonus 2 is popular among audiophiles here. Is the Joy a significant upgrade over the Bonbonus 2, given they share the same type of drivers?
2. Where does the Joy fit in the hierarchy among the Dolce Musica, XN Series, and Natura lineup?
3. Any insights on their custom-designed AudioBarletta drivers?

I have extensively heard Xavian speakers in my friend's showroom in Chennai. I had also done a write-up in 2017, will link below.
Very good brand, but, since Covid, according to my friend, the production quality has gone a bit north, and he has since quit its distributorship.

They make some nice speakers. Quite popular in Europe. Classy finishes and great workmanship along with great driver choices. Not sure why they have not really caught the fancy of Indian audiophiles.
