THE CESSARO BEETHOVEN II IS WITHOUT PEER, THE ONLY COMPARISON IS LIVE MUSIC.

The Beethoven II improves even upon our own Beta II in every area and can only be compared with our Gamma II model. The difference is, that the Beethoven II has a built-in frontloaded horn instead of an external backloaded horn concept. As of now it‘s also available with our new Cessaro composite horns.

The Beethoven II brings you closer to a concert hall experience than you‘ve ever imagined. Words alone cannot describe what you are about to hear. Forget everything that you‘ve heard about an audio speaker.

Our Beethoven II is a design-sculpture with high-tech technology inside to experience music how it‘s meant to be.

The Cessaro Beethoven II is a 5-way horn loudspeaker system:

Bass

Four 16" bass TAD Alnico drive units in total for driving the frontloaded bass horn. The entire bass section is driven by four special solidstate power amps with huge 1200 W transformers each

Low-Mid

Spherical composite horn with a bespoke papercone driver and Alnico magnets

Midrange

Spherical composite horn with a 2" TAD TD-4001 compression driver and beryllium diaphragm

Treble

Spherical composite horn with a 1" TAD TD-2001 or TD-2002 compression driver and beryllium diaphragm

Super-Treble

Cessaro milled brass horn and modified TAD ET-703 compression driver with cobalt magnet and beryllium diaphragm

Driver

When it comes to drivers our quality standard is the Japanese top manufacturer TAD. Even if TAD drivers are only rarely used nowadays because of their pricing structure, they are without an alternative for the technical realization of  our acoustical demands.

TAD drivers with their beryllium diaphragm offer the benefit to react twice as fast as other diaphragm materials. Also it is light and stable like no other material. Because of the rapidity acoustical details can be reproduced, that couldn't be heard otherwise. Speakers with beryllium diaphragm also react significantly more impulsive.
