Anybody knows?
Are they expensive?

Harman Japan sells them right off the shelf.

Expensive?
Any contact information to the right people in Japan?

Hi Niklas,

yes I am able to get them. Expensive? Yes! But trully worth every penny in my opinion.

I have a pair running in what I call bass enhancers but others might term subwoofers that are quite exceptional. I run them in a 2 1/2 way configuration crossing over at 300hz. They bring magic to my system!

What I have never heard before is the delicacy and pitch definition that the 1500al seems to bring to the party, subtle timbres and textures that nothing else seems to get right. Maybe that's over the top, but the 1500al is a quite exceptional drive unit subjectively speaking.

I have one pair boxed that were used for testing and are as new, so can offer those at about 50% rrp if you are interested.

Interesting observation. What other drivers have you tried, or what other driver comes in 2nd??
