Cabasse Antigua MC170
3-way bookshelf speaker from Cabasse, fitted with a midrange-tweeter coaxial driver for spacious, immersive sound delivery.
Description
The Antigua MC170 is a bookshelf speaker from Cabasse, designed around a 3-way architecture. It combines a coaxial driver dedicated to the midrange-tweeter with a long-throw woofer, two elements working in complementary fashion to reproduce the full sound spectrum from a compact format intended to fit into a living room or a listening room.
The heart of this speaker rests on its coaxial driver, which brings together midrange and tweeter on the same diffusion axis. This configuration favours a particularly spacious sound reproduction, providing a pleasing sense of immersion when listening. The long-throw woofer complements this arrangement by providing the necessary foundation in the lower part of the spectrum.
This bookshelf speaker is aimed at music enthusiasts seeking an enveloping and coherent listening experience, where sound spatialisation takes precedence over floor space. Its bookshelf format suits it to installation on stands or a piece of furniture, in a domestic listening room.
What to check before buying used
The coaxial driver, the heart of this speaker, deserves careful listening: a misalignment between the midrange and tweeter drivers results in an off-centre sound image or a nasal tone. The woofer suspensions should also be inspected, as the foam or fabric can stiffen or tear over time, affecting bass reproduction. An examination of the cabinet is also required, particularly around the corners and the veneer, to spot impacts, delamination or signs of damp.
