The number of employees had multiplied, and Aldo introduced Mario to the art of the unique folding process of the wafer-thin aluminum foil. \u00abPiegare\u00bb<\/strong> means folding in Italian, which lead to our company name, \u00abPIEGA.\u00bb From then on, surfing became a recreational sport for Mario. He worked with his dad until Aldo retired and continued his tradition with his colleague Jasmine Keller.<\/p>\n

Mario’s sportsmanlike ambition was a huge benefit<\/strong>, albeit in a different context, because when it comes to ribbons, top-class is barely good enough. It takes around 30 work stages and pronounced sensitivity to produce a coaxial ribbon. The materials are rather expensive, and the wafer-thin foil is extremely delicate. This task requires tremendous knowledge, from precision craftsmanship to sound converter technology. Just one faulty solder joint or a micro-crack in the diaphragm, and you’ll have to start all over again.<\/p>\n"}]}]}]},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","grey":false,"rows":[{"spacing":{"top":"0px","bottom":"0px"},"columns":[{"text_align":"left","elements":[{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"

With its level of detail and degree of efficiency, the ribbon clearly surpasses the performance of a conventional midrange or tweeter. Its excellent sound characteristics result from an extremely light 20 \u00b5m diaphragm made from wafer-thin upilex foil and equally thin aluminum foil. The principle of all our ribbon technology systems is based on the diaphragm also being the voice coil and thus the speaker\u2019s \u201cengine.\u201d<\/strong> Since the diaphragm\u2019s surface is evenly set into oscillation, it can be kept wafer-thin and hence very light.<\/p>\n

The moving load of the tweeter is only seven milligrams, and thus around 30 times less than that of the lightest commercially available tweeters. The diaphragm contains several flat coils, which are etched out in a very complex spray-etching process<\/strong>. It is moved by the strongest neodymium magnets, which are attached to the rear and front at a distance of 1 mm from the coaxial foil. They compress the magnetic field lines, allowing the tweeter to achieve a sound pressure of more than 100 dB. The coaxial driver in the picture is the world’s only correct point source that combines midrange and tweeter across all three axes (X, Y, and Z axes). With audible results: a particularly clear and incredibly detailed sound image!<\/strong><\/p>\n"}]}]}]},{"acf_fc_layout":"speakers","header":"EVERYTHING ABOUT THE COAX LOUDSPEAKER
