Range
Masterpieces signed Cabasse.
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.
Rediscover the emotions of pure sound.
The fruit of an entire team’s passion for music, the new Artis range concentrates on the very latest Cabasse innovations
in coaxial technology and mastery of acoustics.
Elegant and compact, they encompass the unique qualities of the BC17, TC23 and QC55 co-axial drivers.
Listen to the SCS difference.

RIGA SYSTEM BALTIC SYSTEM
Ultra compact, the Riga satellite is fitted with the 2-way co-axial BC17. A true technological feat, this new transducer consists of a dome midrange-tweeter and a ring shaped lower midrange-woofer, forming together
a portion of a pulsating sphere only 17 cm in diameter.
Riga concentrates all the values of the SCS
principles so you can experience and share the
joys of music and sound – every kind of music
and every type of sound.
Santorin 30 encapsulates, in a compact enclosure, the technical innovations initially designed for the “La Sphère” subwoofer section: honeycomb dome membrane, long throw voice-coil, closed cabinet, oversized amplification, digital fine tuning and specific Cabasse audio software for room analysis and automatic tuning. Experience linear, colouration free bass down to 20 Hz.
