The Stradivari is a three-way speaker with two stiff, lightweight, 12" aluminum/magnesium-cone woofers custom-built for Sonus by SEAS.Jan 18, 2005

Chances are they aren't selling anymore. Rest assured if a speaker line is selling and profitable it wouldn't be disappearing. Too many great speakers for half the price in the market today
Based on comments from my local dealer at the time (which I'm sure Ivan can confirm with his own experience) he was selling more than a few per year. The Stradivari was axed because of the focus on the new line and not because it wasn't selling.

Critics on paying for the look has been there since the beginning of the brand. I tend to disregard them.
