Effect Audio CLEOPATRA • IMPERIA Founder's Edition
Pristine Sound of the Nile, Reborn in Royal Grace.
As an homage to Cleopatra II, CLEOPATRA • IMPERIA carries forward her essence through its signature pure silver material: Celestial Crystal UP-OCC Silver Litz — and for the first time, introduces a triad of flagship-grade materials:
• Timeless Legacy • UP-OCC Gold-Plated Silver, woven like strands of flowing gold, imbues the sound with exceptional clarity and nuanced smoothness.• Exquisite Rarity • UP-OCC Palladium-Plated Silver, a rare and diminishing material — a final expression of prestige.• Selected Premium • UP-OCC Gold-Copper Alloy enriches the sound with a warm, refined tonal depth.
The Carrying Case retains Cleopatra’s signature square form, now refined with a supple calfskin exterior. A custom woven top in stone grey adds texture, while an engraved serial number at the base matches the splitter’s edition marking.
CLEOPATRA • IMPERIA comes with a ConX® Full Set Interchangeable Connectors.
Last Unit Remaining — your final chance to own this edition.
Beneath silver moonlight cascading between the temple’s stone pillars, the Queen slowly steps into the divine realm.
More than just a legend — she returns, shaped by time and restored to her regal form.
CLEOPATRA • IMPERIA is our reimagination of the eternal symbol of "The Queen" — not merely a mythical figure famed for her beauty, but a modern expression of power, nobility, and wisdom.
Sound Portfolio
CLEOPATRA • IMPERIA is our most refined expression of the “Queen’s Voice” to date.
Building upon the crystalline fluidity of Cleopatra II, it takes sonic character one step further:
• A fuller, more resonant midrange — steady and commanding, like her serene, unwavering gaze.
• A deeper, darker background — like a starry sky beneath the pyramids at night, allowing every detail to stand out with greater focus.
• High frequencies remain crystalline and transparent, but are now woven with multiple flagship-grade metals to achieve a subtle balance between brilliance and texture.
CLEOPATRA • IMPERIA Founder’s Edition is no longer just a cable — it is a statement piece, crafted to reveal a new dimension of the music you thought you knew.
Palladium-Plated Silver
Used in only the most exclusive creations, UP-OCC Palladium-Plated Silver represents one of the rarest and most coveted materials in high-end audio. Its availability is rapidly diminishing, making its presence in the Founder’s Edition a statement of true exclusivity. Beyond its rarity, Palladium-Plated Silver imparts a distinct sonic finesse — delivering a lean presentation with slightly elevated upper mids — revealing texture and nuance with precision.Design Inspiration
The visual design of CLEOPATRA • IMPERIA Founder’s Edition is a tangible expression of true royalty. Both the splitter and connector housings are designed with titanium alloy using CNC machining, resulting in a finish that balances refined shine with strength and sophistication.The splitter features a custom dual-layer structure, inspired by Cleopatra’s iconic royal headdress — a symbol of her sovereignty and unshakable dignity.
To mark the exclusivity of the Founder’s Edition, limited to just 50 units worldwide, we’ve added two truly personal touches:
- The left side of the splitter is laser-engraved with our Founder’s signature
- The right side is engraved with its unique limited edition serial number
