Popori acousticsthe European innovator of high-end electrostatic loudspeakers, will cause a stir as it grows Warsaw Audio-Video Show 202524th-26th October, at the Radisson Blu Sobieski Hotel, Suite 602. The Eastern European market for high-end audio is growing rapidly and the show has become an important stage for established and emerging brands to showcase groundbreaking designs. Among them, Poporis Vitorla stands out: a handcrafted, sailing-inspired electrostatic speaker that not only reproduces music, but transforms the listening room into a living work of art of sound and light.
Following in the footsteps of Western pioneers such as Quad, MartinLogan and Soundlab, who helped make electrostatics commercially viable, Vitorla takes the concept further, combining careful craftsmanship, organic sound flow and integrated LED lighting to create a listening experience that is both rare and unmistakably immersive.
Hungary-based Popori Acoustics has been making waves in the high-end audio world, most recently at THE Show SoCal 2025, where it showed off its more affordable ($18,000) models. WR3 Electrostatic speakers powered by Class D AGD monoblocks with professional personalized BACCH 3D calibration.
The result was transformative: a sound that moved with uncanny realism, enveloping itself and reaching the listener with a sense of depth that few speakers can match. So we’re excited to see what their largest (over 7 feet tall) speakers offer.
Popori Acoustics sails
Some speakers simply act. Others, like the Popori Vitorla, take electrostatics into a different league. Its sailing-inspired design reflects the natural flow of music through the air, giving a sense of movement that feels effortless.
Each electrostatic panel is hand-crafted with precision, scientifically measured and carefully assembled. Popori claims that this level of craftsmanship and innovative design results in a fluid, organic and detailed sound – no brittle highs or thin bass here.
Vitorla also brings a visual element to the listening experience. Integrated LEDs trace the curves of the frame and create a subtle atmosphere that complements the music without being distracting. Gentle jazz plays with intimacy while larger orchestral passages maintain clarity and presence.
Technically speaking, Vitorla is a wide frequency range, two-way electrostatic system with a planar ribbon tweeter that handles the high frequencies. It offers a frequency response of 28 Hz to 22 kHz, a sensitivity of 90 dB, a THD of <0.1%, a maximum sound pressure level of 105 dB and a minimum impedance of 3.5 Ω. Each 70 kg (154 lbs) speaker features 0.7 m² of active foil area and is designed to deliver precise, coherent sound. The dimensions are 220 cm × 60 cm × 38 cm (86.6 x 23.6 x 15 inches).
The conclusion
Following its debut at the Warsaw Audio Video Show, Popori Acoustics’ Vitorla continues its international tour, giving U.S. audiophiles the opportunity to experience the speaker at the Capital Audiofest November 14-16, 2025 at the Hilton Rockville, presented by Unique Home Audio LLC. The Vitorla shows what modern electrostatics can really achieve – precision, depth and a sense of musical flow that few speakers in this category can match. Meanwhile, Quad has returned with the ESL 2812X and 2912X, available for $15,000 and $18,000 respectively, offering traditional electrostatic performance for those who prefer the established British approach.
