Piega Technology and Products

After the development of the ribbon tweeter the quest for even higher levels of audio perfection continued and was rewarded in 2000 with the development of the first coaxial ribbon system. The bar for quality in the loudspeaker market was raised once more. We managed to combine tweeter and midrange in one unit and thus to form one acoustic center. For the listener this means absolutely no interference and the highest level of sound quality. A pity that we can‘t offer you a sound test at this point. You would be delighted – unadulterated musical enjoyment. The coaxial ribbon systems are built by our specialists with hours of painstaking craftsmanship in precisely maintained climatic conditions at our factory in Horgen and thoroughly tested. When it comes to quality, we leave nothing to chance.

New ways were also developed for the design of loudspeaker cabinets. The extrud- ed aluminum cabinets are PIEGA innovations, finished to perfection with optimum damping without any intrinsic sound.

Have you noticed the unique geometry of the individual series? Each of the new shapes – trapezoidal, semi elliptical and C-shaped – offer individual acoustic proper- ties and stand out for their interesting volume response. In one thing, however, there is no difference between the series. All offer the same high level of quality. Most of our standard products are finished in high quality aluminum. A black front grill is included in the delivery as a cover in order to protect parts that are sensitive to contact. Optional silver coverings are also available. Useful accessories such as stands, cables and wall brackets are also offered on our website.

In this catalogue we are pleased to present three new products. After nearly ten years, our previous flagship, the C 40, now has to transfer its leadership to the new CL 120 X. At this point we can already assure you that it’s a powerful successor. Kurt Scheuch and his team set about meeting the demand for “smaller and better”. The result is a slim-line, elegant floor-standing loudspeaker with a coaxial midrange tweeter ribbon. The minimum volume for a floor-standing loudspeaker of this quality is compensated for by means of the coaxial ribbon system, the special bass chassis and a recently developed frequency crossover. The third new product is a powerful subwoofer, and more information on this is provided in the products section.

However, all new developments have the following top priority: the authentic and highly resolved reproduction of each individual tone. Regardless of whether the recordings were produced in the concert, in the recording studio or on the lawn, we demand from our loudspeakers the highest audio quality, absolute resonance freedom and unbeatable frequency linearity, and above all one thing – “music”. Therefore don‘t be astonished if the imperfections of some well-known musical greats are mercilessly exposed.
