Hello and welcome to AoS - I suspect you may have found us due to my thread on the XTZ 100 D3 Integrated (http://theartofsound.net/forum/showthread.php?t=7455)?

The Divine's certainly look very nice, some good finish choices too. Interesting that they are broad and not too deep, bucking the current trend for the other way round.

Good luck with these and the XTZ range - I suspect you have pulled off quite a coup with exclusivity.

Hello Alex,

Thank you for your kind welcome. We did indeed find this from the A-100D3 thread. So if anyone has any questions regarding XTZ equipment then please don't hesitate to PM us or start a thread. We will try to monitor this forum as much as possible as well as telling you all about any new products or updates. We are also present on two other forums so we will try our best to keep up on all three.

As for the Proxima2's they are very interesting shape and certainly bucks the trend from the regular trail of speaker design. More importantly though the speakers sound great which is the most important aspect, as well as needed to look impressive and fresh.

We are always looking for fresh and innovative products and hopefully we will have a few more interesting updates for you in the coming months not only from Divine Acoustics and XTZ but also from a few other companies we are in discussions with.
