What happens when you take the best loudspeaker drivers available on the world market and connect them with the most innovative and sophisticated frequency crossover technology regardless of costs and used parts?

The isophon Cassiano offers you the answer.

San Cassiano, a ski resort in Southern Tyrol donated the name for a unique loudspeaker project. The aim was to create a reference loudspeaker with almost compact dimensions which can be integrated into any modern living-room. In addtion, the music shall vanish away from the cabinets producing a sound stage as natural as can be.

It took us at isophon many listening sessions disregarding price and effort of any component until the basic concept was clear.

Ceramic diaphragms – HighTech Made in Germany!

Since more than 20 years now the company of Thiel in Germany is dedicated to the design and manufacturing of ceramic diaphragms for loudspeakers. These diaphragms are thin and fragile but unite contradictionary properties like light weight, hardness and stiffness which are important for good diaphragms. The high speed of sound of ceramics shifts partial waves and resonances into the inaudible region where they can be cut off by steep frequency crossovers. These diaphragms enabled us to use our unique frequency crossover technology.diamond tweeter The same is true for the properties of the diamond tweeter (optional feature). Not only is diamond light and stiff, it is also the hardest material and the one with the best heat dissipation of all materials in the world. Especially important is the high heat dissipation as it prevents the voice-coil from becoming warm which leads to a compression of dynamics and worse resolution. In combination with our steep filter crossover this tweeter is almost indestructable.

A genuine midrange-driver:

high resonance frequency, light diaphragm, short voice-coil, extremely strong magnet. This guarantees transparency and resolution without color ation
