Description
Opera Grand Callas is a three-way floorstanding speaker that replaces the previous model with the same name.
Opera Tebaldi
The name is about all it shares as it has been completely redesigned from top to bottom; making it more comparable to Opera's previous flagship, the Tebaldi. Where the Tebaldi was large and could be difficult to place, the new Grand Callas has a much smaller footprint and is less-sensitive to placement.
Drivers
This low-range loaded reflex design uses two 8" long-throw woofers, a 7" annealed polypropylene midrange and a 1" Scanspeak 9700 tweeter. The diffuser is complemented by a rear radiation system that uses two tweeters configured as a natural dipole. These rear-firing drivers increase the ambient sound, giving depth and substance to the musical performance.
Key Features
- Floorstanding speaker design in 2 wood finishes
- Three-way configuration, Bi-wirable
- Mid-range with polypropylene re-cooked cone & phase plug
- Scanspeak tweeter handles high power w/o ferrofluid for greater detail
- Rear-firing radiation system diffuses sound to improve ambient sound
