The Callas Diva delivers exemplary sound reproduction grounded in acoustic principles. Its design ensures remarkable transient response and spatial accuracy in even compact environments.
The Callas Diva employs a sophisticated three-way system utilizing a long-throw 8-inch woofer complemented by a 7-inch polypropylene midrange and a renowned 1-inch Scanspeak 9700 tweeter. The woofer's aluminum cone and advanced magnetic design optimize control, allowing for low-frequency extension up to 1500 Hz, while ensuring minimal intermodulation distortion due to its exceptional peak-to-peak displacement. The rear radiation system employs two tweeters in a natural dipole configuration, carefully managing the phase and timing of sound waves to create a rich and immersive soundstage. This design, combined with the ability to adjust low-frequency response via the reflex port, enhances the speaker's adaptability in various listening environments, providing flexibility and precision for close listening scenarios.
