Piega Introduces Premium Gen2 Bookshelf and Floorstanding Speakers at Bristol Hi-Fi Show

Central to the Premium Gen2’s sonic performance are the newly developed RM 01-24 series ribbon tweeters, honoring their inventors Roger Kessler and Mario Ballabio. These symmetrical SSD drivers incorporate dual magnets on both sides of the high-quality foil diaphragm, delivering a more dynamic and responsive high-frequency reproduction compared to earlier iterations. Additionally, the integration of advanced damping materials, derived from Piega’s Coax series, within the aluminum enclosures achieves sound quality previously unattainable with traditional materials.

Technically, the Premium 301 Gen2 operates within a frequency range of 39 Hz to 50 kHz (±2 dB) and features a two-way design with a 140 mm FSD-M woofer and the RM 01-24 tweeter. It offers a sensitivity of 89 dB and a nominal impedance of 4 ohms. The Premium 701 Gen2 floorstanding model extends the frequency range down to 34 Hz, utilizing a three-way configuration with dual 140 mm FSD drivers for low frequencies, a 140 mm FSD-M midrange driver, and the same ribbon tweeter. This model achieves a sensitivity of 90 dB and maintains a consistent nominal impedance.

Set to launch in the UK in Spring 2025, the Premium Gen2 series is available in anodized silver, black, and white lacquer finishes. Pricing for the Premium 301 Gen2 starts at £2,500 for the silver variant and £2,750 for black or white. The Premium 701 Gen2 is priced at £5,600 for silver and black, and £5,700 for the white lacquer version. These new additions solidify Piega’s commitment to delivering exceptional sound quality and elegant design in their high-end loudspeaker offerings.
