Visaton GF 200 base unit - seen in the NIMROD.
The star of this speaker however is probably the Visaton B 100 midrange driver unit. This is a relatively new paper coned design which can be used full range or as a mid range. Lovers of vintage equipment very often point to the midrange sound of old speakers and amplifiers which typically have a warm, euphonic signature. Descriptions like “liquid” and “smooth” spring to mind. The NIMROD definitely has something of this and as a result is very easy to listen to for long periods of time.
