MASTER LINE SOURCE The Master Line Source, the absolute flagship of the PIEGA loudspeakers, was produced over several years of development. It operates on the line source principle, which is considered by audio experts as the ideal transducer. All frequencies are radiated as coherent cylindrical sound waves. Thanks to the enormous membrane area of the line source loudspeaker, its sound producing area is considerably greater than with conventional loudspeakers and exhibits only extremely low distortion. 24 LINE SOURCE RIBBON TWEETERS Of the 24 ribbon tweeters of the MLS, 12 radiate to the front and the other 12 located on the back radiate to the rear. 9 MIDRANGE RIBBONS The nine dipole midrange ribbons radiating to the front and rear provide a uniquely delicate sound reproduction of all instruments and voices. EXQUISITE DESIGN Both elements of the Master Line Source come with a polished aluminium cabinet. Other designs are available on request. SEPARATE BASS TOWER Subwoofers of the special kind: six 22 cm subwoofers guarantee voluminous bass reproduction down to a frequency of 18 hertz. NOT FOR EVERY DAY With a weight of 420 kg and a height of 175 cm, the MLS requires a suitable large listening area. HIGHEST PRECISION The entire baffle of the midrange panel is cut from one solid aluminium block offering outstanding stability and damping. The aluminium block consists of a special alloyoffering maximum rigidity and internal damping and is alsoannealed in an hour long process to remove stresses. The entire cutting process for the baffles alone requires several hours as only this ensures the required precision. METICULOUS WORKMANSHIP The Master Line Source can only be produced from the meticulous workmanship of an experienced member of the PIEGA crew. A long wait time – untypical of PIEGA – for the delivery of these giants of sound is therefore not uncommon. The Master Line Source is produced at the company headquarters without haste and with a great deal of precision and value for the product.A masterpiece of loudspeaker construction made from the hands of masters of the ultimate in audio enjoyment. REVIEW & AWARDS Schweizer Präzision trifft auf Musik - Read More "Another makes us think more of terms like accuracy and precision: The Master Line Source is not a case of inflated pathos. On the contrary: she often plays in such a sober, realistic way, as if she had to provide a counterpoint to the majestic appearance of her physique. In truth, the loudspeaker doesn't follow any philosophy: it simply plays what the canned music tells it to. In any case, we dare to sum up after a first impression: This device is one of the best that speaker construction has to offer. And even if it's too bulky for your shopping list, it's worth paying a visit on your next trip south. " Der Mann liebt Falten - Read More "“Wifes Acceptance Factor,” as the two of them jokingly emphasize. The always original external appearance, which characterizes the Swiss loudspeakers in addition to their sound quality, has already paved the way for them to find their way into many a living room. “Piega dealers are always happy when If the woman is there when you visit the store, they often not only hear better than their husbands, they also have an eye." Klangwunder vom Zürichsee - Read More "All of this unfolds so naturally in the depths of the room, as if the listener were sitting in one of the best seats in the concert hall. Whatever the outcome of direct comparisons with the handful of comparable sound giants in the world: the new aluminum beauty from Lake Zurich is right at the forefront." GROSSE KUNST - Read More "The mid-range reproduction remained decent even when listening outside the stereo triangle, and the bass could also thunder with stomach-shattering force if desired. The driving amplifiers should have appropriate power. The monoblocks used during the demonstration definitely reached their limits faster than the connected Super Piegas. At quiet, normal, loud and even very loud levels, the flawless playback, completely free of any annoying distortions or even discolorations, was impressive. This can be an addictive pleasure." Siebter Himmel erreicht: Piega Master Line Source - Read More "In addition to enormous development and optimization effort, all materials and dimensions were meticulously refined to ensure the best possible transmission quality. This was the ideal basis for the design of the crossovers: Since no errors or time differences have to be compensated for in the sound transmission, the filters are stable and the sound reproduction is at the highest level.
