A hifi installer friend of mine always pronounces it Ler-ver

Not sure if it is right, but would like to know too for when my Aconda arrives.

I always thought it was pronounced Loo-Vay. Its easier just to say lowey though, I'm sure everyone will know what your talking about.

It's pronounced "Lurr-vuh"
Apparently it's German for "Light".

German words with a Scottish accent often sound different to German words with an English one!!

Loewe is german for lion, and is pronounced loo-va, but a bit on the leu-va side. It is the same as Löwe.
... just testing my registration
