A Legacy of Excellence

The brand quickly established itself as a leader in the audio industry with iconic models like the Caruso, Callas, and Divina, each earning acclaim in the world's most discerning audio markets.

Design and Construction

Drivers: The Opera Seconda’s drivers are a testament to the brand’s commitment to quality. The 7” woofers, custom-designed by Scanspeak, feature aluminum diaphragms and advanced coil technology, ensuring detailed and accurate sound reproduction across the frequency range. The D26 series tweeter, also by Scanspeak, offers an extended frequency response with minimal distortion, making it ideal for reproducing the finest nuances in your music.

Crossover Design: The crossover network in the Seconda is meticulously designed to minimize microphonic effects and ensure a stable and precise soundstage. By dividing the crossover circuit into two boards and carefully selecting capacitors, Opera has created a speaker system that delivers consistent and clear sound across all frequencies.

Cabinet Construction: The cabinet of the Opera Seconda is more than just an enclosure—it's an integral part of the speaker's performance. The front panel, made from thick MDF and covered in leather, reduces diffraction and adds to the speaker’s aesthetic appeal. Inside, layers of pyramidal-shaped polyurethane absorb unwanted vibrations, ensuring that the sound you hear is as pure as possible.

Optimized for All Environments: The Opera Seconda is designed to perform flawlessly in any setting, whether you're using it in a dedicated listening room or as part of a home theater system. Its closed box design makes it particularly well-suited for analog records, offering a natural and uncolored sound that brings your favorite recordings to life.
