Audio Physic Cardeas
Audio Physic's superb new speaker the CARDEAS has just hit these shores. This is one very serious speaker that commands the utmost respect.
Cardeas: In Greek and Roman mythology, Cardea was the goddess of health, thresholds and door hinges and handles, also associated with the wind. She protected children against vampires and witches, and was also the benefactress of craftsmen.
Sporting the very latest Hyper Holograhic Cone Tweeter II tweeter, directly wired tweeter cross-over. Mid range and tweeter drivers mounted on SSC technology, ceramic coated aluminium cones. Bass delivered via a 10 inch powered subwoofer with a matching passive unit, double walled multi chamber cabinet construction.
Audio Physic's Cardeas deliver pure musical enjoyment right across the audio spectrum, incredibly rhythmic and fluid sounding. The Cardeas generate a huge transparent open sound stage combined with deep, fast and textured bass. All brought together in perfect tonal harmony.
Anyone considering a special pair of speakers would do well to put the Cardeas on the "must" audition list such is the gravity of the sound they produce.
