OPUS 1
A new dimension of a full-range system by Avantgarde
OPUS 1 is the first Avantgarde system built around a single wide-band horn: a 13.8-inch spherical wave geometry capable of reproducing the entire critical midrange and high-frequency spectrum from 700 to 20,000 Hz, accompanied by a 10″ bass driver. By concentrating the musical core into one horn, we eliminate crossover transitions in the most sensitive bandwidth, resulting in seamless coherence, sharp transient response, and a presentation that feels alive, direct, effortless.
