[@AudioFileZ]

I love the combination of using physics in the service of more coherent audio as in the coaxial driver and bending physics as in using intelligent DSP, unique tri-amplification, and specialized driver design. I would have to believe by watching your review these speakers are doing all of this on a very high level of resolution with amazing dynamic range over an extremely, overall, wide frequency band. I've known of Cabasse for years but would have never considered them as they've always seemed quirky. These are quirky in all of the right ways. Judging by their total capability the $4K seems almost a bargain as they might just punch in the range of the no-object price luxury super-premium speakers. You had me with "the most violent French thing".

[@n.andersen]

I was looking at these about a year ago. Really nice specs and it looks alright, but even the retailers recommended me to look elsewhere, because of software issues. I ended up with the Buchardt A10.

Always appreciate your reviews and insight on various stereo equipment. Since Rialto and Buchardt Anniversary 10 is similar in price what nuances should I be aware of to make a good decision on purchase; room is 14x18 w/10 foot ceilings. Most of my listening is jazz (70), hip/hop (10%), classicial (10%), Spotify recommendations (10%)....90% streaming using Spotify/Qobuz. Thank you in advance for your time.

[@ruvamsi]

For the right person, these seem amazing. Size of an LSX, sound of a LS60. Think you'd have to spend quite a bit more to find something better like Legacy Calibre or Dutch&D or Kii, and those are bigger and don't have all the streaming/eARC/features. Though, you could always go thru the hassle of setting up 2 subwoofers and end up with much better sound for less $$$

[@marchuvfulz]

It looks awesome, but.... Actually dislike the idea of spending so much on an "everything device," no matter how good it sounds. So many components in one box. One breaks, and the system is dead. App support stops, and it's useless. Have to have a lot of faith in the company to provide prompt service and maintain the app.

I'm sure they're spectacular. I'm also sure I can buy towers that can match or exceed them, for less. $4 grand is a lot of grand for me. At the same price, you can get a pair of the Philharmonic BMR towers in rosewood. I know which I'd prefer.

[@georgecovesneanu8114]

You re to poor man

[@shh532]

If you are looking at tower speakers for the same price, these are not for you, as once you've considered pairing amplification, digital conversion, streaming etc. you are going to go way above these. And for the same price to get separates, it's hard to guess if you'll get something as good, and certainly you won't get something that's as absolutely compact and manageable as these. A pair of the higher end genelecs for instance will run you an extra 3-400 and room correction I'm fairly sure is quite extra on that. These are a specific solution where you want to combine source, amplification, convenience, modern features and sound into a specific package. You could stick them in a home office, on desk, in a bedroom, start off a very nice 2ch setup with these, with room correction built in, without having to worry about any separates, while also getting an actual coaxial performance and really strong low end. That is a very powerful proposition.

A 3-way coaxial done this way is incredible. The only other company I have seen is do a 3-way coaxial is Geithain, but they do it a more conventional way. They have a woofer with a tweeter and mid driver next to each other within the woofer. No so worried about no remote as I’d buy a $100 phone to be that if I’m already in this price bracket… there will be at least $2000 spent on acoustics to warrant any speaker that expensive

[@michaelwright1602]

I just purchased the Cabasse Murano passive bookshelf speakers along with their Abyss amplifier with DSP from Upscale Audio. I did a bit of research on Cabasse, when I discovered this Abyss amp/DSP unit. Cabasse teamed up with Canon, the camera guys... We all know Canon is big in the digital realm, both film and audio. The collaboration is quite extensive, in both R&D and manufacturing. This information kicked me over the edge to purchase the Cabasse Abyss to pair with my Cabasse Murano speakers. It was a no brainer in my book. How about getting an Abyss in to review Z?

wow the most full featured audiophile speaker u ever reviewed 😳😳😳🎉🎉🎉

[@fredericktennant9151]

As a coder and audiophile, I do like these speakers however, no remote control is a game changer and will make these speakers useless within 5 years and at a price of over 4k that's a lot of money to find yourself with a speaker you cant use. 5 years why? Because you need the app to work to use this speaker and in about 5 years you will have zero support for the app and without the app the speakers are useless. I have Mission Argonaut speakers that I bought in the 80s and they are still working today we all have apps that suddenly stopped working because the phone or table OS has updated but the developer has no further interest in developing that app anymore, normally we would just curse and delete the app now imagine that happening to your HiFi.

I remember Zeos sitting in that old apartment with the bicycle on the wall and making fun of audiophiles! I remember the REAL Zeos proudly proclaiming that he was NOT an audiophile, because audiophiles do all that silly stuff that's un-necessary. Furthermore, I shall put it to you sir, that you are also no audiophile. Why? Because you are a gadget man. You're excited by "features". Everyone who knows audiophiles knows that they are people who've lost their minds. They are people who are completely obsessed with the sound quality of music reproduction. Not features. They spend endless hours trying to figure out how to make their stereos have higher fidelity to the original master recording, or to surpass it if it isn't good enough. They talk about things like timbre, tonality, soundstage, imaging, and a lot of esoteric things about how electricity behaves when it goes through different materials. You went over every single feature and function of these speakers, but not one word was uttered about soundstage, imaging, or tonality. Hmmm, if not for that erroneous statement, I might've believed you WERE Zeos, after all... :P Edit: Just for clarity, this comment is intended as a light-hearted, deranged rant poking a bit of friendly fun at Zeos, and not a full-on meltdown.
