three decades, the Italian-based manufacturer
has designed award-winning speakers whose
exacting details, exotic lines, high-performance
abilities, and architecture mirror that of famed
Italian sports cars. Combining artisan woodcraft,
modern metalwork, and electroacoustic
technology, these lavish instruments play music
with vibrant energy, dynamics, and authority.
