Sigberg Audio Unveils the Saranna: A New Benchmark for Active Speakers

One of the standout features of the Saranna is its innovative use of slits in the side walls to achieve a cardioid directivity pattern. This design ensures that sound is predominantly projected forward, minimizing unwanted reflections from side and rear surfaces. By eschewing complex digital signal processing in favor of precise acoustic engineering, Sigberg Audio maintains a pure and uncolored sound signature. Additionally, the Saranna offers a variety of connectivity options, including analog (XLR and Cinch) and digital (AES, coaxial, and optical) inputs, catering to diverse audio setups.

The Saranna is designed to offer exceptional flexibility in placement, even in environments where space is at a premium. Sigberg Audio recommends a wall distance of 15 to 50 centimeters, allowing the speakers to deliver a precise bass response and expansive soundstage without necessitating large, cumbersome setups. Users can also tailor the sound to their room’s acoustics through three preset configurations accessible on the back of the speaker, along with a 9-band equalizer available via USB connection.

Priced at €21,665 per pair, the Saranna is available for pre-order starting March 18, 2025, with delivery anticipated in August 2025. Consumers can choose between elegant black and pristine white finishes, and early adopters ordering by May 1, 2025, will benefit from a discounted rate of €19,360 per pair. With its blend of technical prowess and thoughtful design, the Sigberg Audio Saranna is poised to become a standout choice for audiophiles seeking uncompromised performance in a stand-mounted configuration.
