Masterpiece Opus One

Description

With Opus One, we are proud to share our newly designed flagship loudspeaker. Many years of collaboration with Purify Audio’s legendary drive units coupled with a Real precision ribbon tweeter has enabled a significant quantum step up from everything we have built before. Opus One establishes new benchmarks in musicality, transparency, and fidelity along with testing our limits of dynamic speaker design with a constellation of exotic technologies, techniques and materials.

Expressed in immaculate execution in every little detail from distressed hides and exotic hardwoods to engraved panels and de-coupled to the rest of the world via an isolation platform.

A timeless piece of art in your living environment ready to engage the soul with a beautiful portrayal of musical expression and to create something unique in balance between art, craftsmanship, technology and performance. 

The combination of Purify bass/mid motors and the Raal ribbon tweeter are able to employ lightning-fast precision and  deliver exquisite whisper-quiet musical passages or thunderous bass  completely free of distorting cabinet resonances. Dual 8″ passive radiators tuned to the cabinet volume offer the perfect way of enhancing bass energy without the inherent problems with ports or transmission lines.

Cabinet construction begins with an inert baffle of 50mm thickness and employing a fully braced design througout. Often the biggest problem with loudspeaker design is its inability to decouple itself from the floor and also other extraneous airborne vibrations. The perfect solution was an existing design which has already  won many awards in its own right and able to completely remove the passage of deleterious vibrations both to and from the speaker cabinets. This impart a serious improvement in soundstage and bass precision.

For those wishing to experience the visceral thrill and lyricism of the best loudspeakers in the world should audition Opus One.
