How the Light² S, which can be operated from both sides, performs in the test is revealed in the following article: Packaging and scope of delivery The design of the box is kept, it is [...]
Sure, in the price range between 400 and 500 euros there are many offers of open or semi-open systems. so why the Avantone Pro Planar Red and above all, why at this price?

And today the reason for this – the Light² 100 – proves itself on the test bench. Packaging and scope of delivery As for the box, the design is very similar to the already tested mouse and [...]
