Aria 926 represents the essence of a three-way floorstanding hi-fi loudspeaker, designed to deliver an expressive, balanced, and engaging musical experience. Its sound reproduction stands out for harmony, precision, and naturalness across the entire frequency range, meeting the expectations of music lovers of every genre. Part of the Aria line, this model marks a return to the fundamental values of acoustics, combining high-level performance with ease of installation, making it suitable for a wide range of domestic environments, particularly medium-sized rooms, with a recommended listening distance of around three meters.

The three-way configuration features two dedicated bass drivers, one midrange driver, and one tweeter, all developed and manufactured in France. The bass and midrange drivers use the exclusive Flax cone, based on a sandwich structure composed of fiberglass layers and a central layer of natural linen. Chosen for its excellent mechanical properties, this material delivers a neutral and detailed sound while combining lightness, rigidity, and low elasticity, with performance comparable to materials such as carbon or Kevlar. The TNF tweeter, equipped with a Poron suspension and a urethane waveguide plate, contributes to smoother high-frequency reproduction, improving horizontal directivity and stereo imaging accuracy, while ensuring a seamless transition between midrange and treble.

The bass loading system employs Powerflow technology with multiple ports, combining a front-firing port with a downward-firing vent to increase impact and depth without dynamic compression. The cabinet structure is made from high-rigidity MDF, with non-parallel side panels and internal bracing that reduce vibrations, standing waves, and distortion, ensuring a neutral and controlled sound. A matte black waveguide profile promotes even dispersion both horizontally and vertically.

From an aesthetic standpoint, Aria 926 features a sober and elegant design, characterized by premium materials and meticulous attention to detail that enhances its perceived quality. The absence of visible screws, replaced by brushed metal rings, contributes to a clean and refined appearance. The front baffle is finished with a leather-effect coating and complemented by a magnetically attached fabric grille, while the aluminum alloy base ensures excellent stability thanks to integrated adjustable spikes.

Assembly and supplied accessories also reflect the brand’s characteristic attention to detail. Each loudspeaker is delivered with a separate base, mounting hardware, decoupling spikes, dedicated protections, and clear assembly instructions. Once positioned, Aria 926 immediately impresses with its visual presence and solid construction.

Overall, this loudspeaker stands out as a highly successful design, capable of combining build quality, technological research, and emotional musical reproduction. Its full, warm sound remains consistently engaging regardless of the recording, making Aria 926 an ideal choice for listeners seeking pleasure, involvement, and a musical performance that never fails to impress.
