Cabasse Alcyone system
Miniature spheres only 4 inches in diameter, the new Alcyone satellites feature all the acoustical qualities of any Cabasse system: efficiency, power handling, transparency and stability of the sound stage. The Alcyone satellite has a new wide bandwidth high-efficiency driver for acoustic linearity, high output, and full spatial coherency, just like the rest of the Cabasse spherical line. This driver has been designed in the Cabasse Acoustic Centre in France especially for the small spherical Alcyone enclosure.
Alcyone satellites can be placed on a shelf, mounted on the wall, or affixed atop the optional stands. The stand hides the speaker wire which is threaded through one of the stand's rod supports. The magnetic base can be used for shelf or wall mounting so the speaker can be easily oriented in any direction for ultimate flexibility in placement.
The Alcyone 5.1 system consists of one Santorin 17 subwoofer (7" woofer and 100 W amplifiers), 5 satellites ready for bookshelf or on-wall use, and a complete set of interconnect cables. Simple to install, easy to enjoy. The Alcyone satellites are fitted with new wide bandwidth drivers designed according to the Cabasse SCS (Spatially Coherent System) principles.
