The No.3.2 MKII is the entry floorstanding model of the Lansche Audio P-series, from a German company whose designs are built around its own CORONA plasma tweeter. The maker presents it as a compact tower that introduces this tweeter technology and fits into a living room or a dedicated music room. The P-series line continues upward with the No.5.2 MKII, No.7.2 MKII, No.8.3 and No.9.2.
Key specs that matter
Lansche builds it as a passive 3-way reflex speaker carrying three drivers. An 8 mm plasma tweeter handles the top octaves, a 20 cm midrange uses a paper-coated diaphragm, and a 22 cm woofer with a fiberglass-coated cone is mounted in a downfiring arrangement. Crossover points sit at 80 Hz and 2.5 kHz. Lansche specifies a frequency response of 30 Hz to 150 kHz within 3 dB and a sensitivity of 91 dB at 1 W and 1 m. Nominal impedance is 8 ohm, with a minimum of 5.6 ohm. Each speaker weighs 53 kg.
Engineering and use context
In a plasma tweeter there is no conventional diaphragm, and the extended upper limit quoted by Lansche comes from this driver. The low bass crossover leaves the woofer to cover only the deepest part of the range, while the midrange spans the region up to the tweeter crossover. The cabinet combines MDF with absorbent acoustic foam, and an internal reinforcement matrix of interlocking boards stiffens the enclosure. At the bottom a 12 mm aluminium base plate carries the floor spikes and decouples the cabinet from the floor. Buyers can choose piano lacquer white, piano lacquer black or a lacquered wood veneer. Lansche also builds an active version of this model with 2 x 80 W plus 1 x 500 W of built-in amplification, RCA analogue inputs with 10 kOhm impedance and a lower 1.7 kHz upper crossover point.
Pairing
Lansche publishes no power handling figure for the passive No.3.2 MKII, so its sensitivity and impedance data are the only published figures for amplifier matching. The active version measures 114 x 24.6 x 41.9 cm, weighs 58 kg per unit and is priced at EUR 31,000 including VAT, offered in piano black Macassar, piano black and piano white, so it needs only a source or preamplifier connected to its RCA inputs.
Alternatives
The Lansche Audio No.5.2 MKII is the next P-series floorstander, a 3-way reflex model with an 11 inch aluminium woofer, response down to 25 Hz and 82 kg weight.
