These are no series instruments.

There are many and various different options available. The dispositions above mentioned are only a few examples. Our Positive organs are always custom made; the measurements, elements and the natural acoustics of the room offer the foundation for the construction of the instrument. The spaciousness of the room point to the organ and the sound it should produce. For us this means: Power and fullness, warmth of sound, transparency, and brilliance without a penetrating sharpness.
