La Sphere Speakers For $150,000
Speakers for $150,000? Yes, you read it right. These speakers have their origin in France, developed by Cabasse.Cabasse brought together four drivers: a 1.1″ dome tweeter, a 5″ mid-range, an 8″ mid-woofer and a 22″ monster subwoofer to form a “pulsating sphere.”
They placed all four drivers on the same axis, Cabasse is able to achieve 96dB of efficiency and a linear response down to 20Hz in anechoic room conditions. It took a team of 8 people 3 years to develop this system. This same system is utilized in the La Sphere’s and finely tuned for use with the B&O ICEpower amplifiers to create a fully active loudspeaker with 2,600 watts of power on tap per side.
