Note: These speakers are in excellent condition with original packaging.
Introducing the UNO fino edition, the new entry-level speaker concept by Avantgarde Acoustic. Bringing the virtues of the UNO XD to a smaller cabinet, by adapted driver technologies, and by a redeveloped active subwoofer design.
Opening new opportunities to those who are seeking for a “classical” Avantgarde look at a more affordable price point. Already the UNO XD clearly outlines what is achievable with using Avantgarde‘s spherical horn technology from 290 Hz and up: a finely contoured, crisp and open sound, with rich voices and instruments, presented with a unique life-like easiness and authority. The UNO fino edition now conveys these virtues, effectively trickling the essential technologies of the UNO XD down to a more compact and more affordable package. Still full-range (30-20000 Hz), still extremely efficient (107dB/W/m), still “true to life” when it comes to dynamic musical challenges. A worthy addition to the UNO line of products by Avantgarde Acoustic, and another horn speaker statement in sound quality.

Reduction not always means simply omitting something. Reduction also creates awareness for essential things. Or simply put: reduction is concentration. In this sense, the UNO Fino Edition is designed as a concentrate, using the essence of the UNO line of speakers to accomplish a new entry point for the 'classic' horn speakers series of Avantgarde Acoustic.
In essence: a gently minimised size, a deliberately simplified engineering, but still a maximised Avantgarde sound experience.
