USER MANUAL IDEA CABASSE

Journey through spatial coherency.

Expression.

Emotion.

Experience.

Dom25/13F15, BC12, BC13...these cold, technical names refer to the drive units that are the source of your emotional enjoyment of music. All the loudspeakers in the Idea ranges feature Cabasse's latest innovations in co-axial technology and spatial coherency.

Classical or modern; choose your loudspeakers for a perfect match with your interior décor. Whatever your choice, every system will offer the same sound signature, the one that has made Cabasse a worldwide reference among fans of live music for more than 60 years.

Listen to the SCS difference

Fidelity to original timbres and dynamic range, a wide, stable and full soundstage, these are the benefits of SCS (Spatially Coherent System) technology.

Imagine three stones hitting the surface of a lake at three different points. The created waves will mix and propagate erratically. Now imagine three stones hitting the surface at the same point, the waves grow and spread harmoniously. This single source emission is the benefit of the co-axial drivers and wide-range tweeters designed by the Cabasse R&D team.

The listening experience will take you to the heights of emotion.

ALTURA MC

The new Bora, Egea 3 and Iroise 3 are fitted with a modified version of the BC13 coaxial midrange-tweeter used in the 4-way concentric driver of the "La Sphère" reference system. The coherency of the BC13 combined with the dynamic range and transparency of the Duocell woofers reproduces timbres with true fidelity, without fatigue and with a matchless realism and depth of soundstage. Altura MC, classical looking speakers with purity of design and innovative Cabasse technical solutions.
