The Abyss amp offers speaker-specific DSP that adds thousands of dollars of sonic value.
When you write software and make speaker drivers and cabinets, magic happens
When you write software and make speaker drivers and cabinets, magic happens.
Cabasse, as we've mentioned before, is well aware that audiophiles are suspicious of its products. Only high-end audio world can take the otherwise innocuous adjective "lifestyle", and turn it into damning faint praise. But Cabasse, as a champion of "high-fidelity in every room", knows that it needs to sit the naysayers, unbelievers, and anti-lifestylers down just once to get the respect of even the most hardened audiophile. The simple fact is, Cabasse sounds really, really good.
The French brand has become synonymous with its spherical designs, and we know these are visually polarizing, even as they are sonically unifying. But, some of Cabasse's greatest products follow traditional hi-fi design, while still being cutting-edge contemporary on the inside. Today, we're talking about this side of Cabasse.
Four Killer Bundles
Today, we open up a part of our Memorial Day sale early with four Upscale bundle deals with so much sonic value for money that you can unquestioningly stop reading now, hit one of the links below, add to cart, and spend the rest of your days occupied by the pleasantly futile task of trying to finish Qobuz.
These hugely discounted bundles feature the 120 Wpc Cabasse Abyss all-in-one player with matched passive Cabasse speakers: two standmounts and two floorstanders.
The Antigua Bundle, $1,747 (Retail $3,090): Combine the magic of the Abyss with the 89 dB sensitive, three-way standmount with coaxial mid-tweeter and one 6.7" woofer.
The Minorca Bundle, $1,997 (Retail $3,090): Bringing you imaging like you wouldn't believe with the Minorca MC40 standmounts, which are an 89 dB sensitive three-way standmount with high-end coaxial mid-tweeter and one 6.7" woofer.
The Jersey Bundle, $2,045 (Retail $3,185): Fill a room with the sound of the Cabasse Jersey MC170, a 90 dB sensitive three-way floorstander with coaxial mid-tweeter and two 6.7" woofers.
The Java Bundle, $2,745 (Retail $4,585): Brings all the kick of the Java MC40, a 90 dB sensitive, three-way floorstander with coaxial high-end mid-tweeter and one 6.7" woofer.
Cabasse offers exceptional traditional hi-fi too. Here, the three-way Minorca MC40 standmount.
Factory Matched Hi-Fi
We use the line "factory matched and tuned" because the Cabasse Abyss is a very special component. In fact, Kevin called it "a $1,795 miracle" and now that it's a full $300 cheaper, he has no words, he just burbles like one of his Porsches. Last year, we wrote about his "bonkers experiment" when he took the Abyss home and said this: "I used it as a complete system with my $280,000 Focal Grande Utopias today, and I was so blown away I came right back down to the office and made a video about it. I don't know how they do it."
While the Abyss sounds great with any speaker, things get really exciting when you use Cabasse transducers. The company is as adept with software as with materials and hardware, and is able to match its French-made drivers with advanced DSP code to keep each driver working at its very best.
This then, is the highlight of all four of these Abyss bundles. You can pick optimization that has been dialled in for each specific driver in each cabinet, with that specific crossover. Simply select your chosen Cabasse speaker from the Abyss custom DSP menu, and experience a sonic upgrade that's worth thousands of dollars. Take the plunge before we sell out!
