Davis Olympia One Master 35
French 2-way bookshelf speaker from Davis, combining a soft dome tweeter and a Kevlar midrange for precise listening in a small or medium-sized room.
Description
The Olympia One Master 35 is a 2-way bookshelf speaker designed and manufactured in France by Davis. It is based on a classic configuration combining a 28 mm soft dome tweeter and a 13 cm Kevlar midrange, loaded in bass reflex by a port located at the rear of the cabinet.
The crossover frequency between the two drivers is set at 3500 Hz, a split point that assigns all the treble to the tweeter while leaving the Kevlar midrange to handle the mid and low frequencies down to the speaker's lower limit. The stated frequency response ranges from 47 Hz to 21000 Hz at plus or minus 3 dB, reflecting reproduction covering the essential part of the audible spectrum for this compact floorstanding format. With a sensitivity of 90 dB and an impedance of between 4 and 8 ohms, the speaker accepts a nominal power of 80 W and withstands peaks of up to 120 W, making it compatible with amplifiers of moderate to medium power.
With dimensions of 35 x 18 x 25 cm and a weight of 18 kg per pair, the Olympia One Master 35 is intended for listening in a reasonably sized room, on stands or a suitable piece of furniture, in a classic stereo setup. It suits a listener seeking a compact speaker paired with a quality hi-fi system, rather than a home cinema installation or large-volume listening.

What to check before buying used
Check the flexibility of the Kevlar driver's suspension: sagging or excessive stiffness after several years indicates wear that affects bass reproduction. Inspect the tweeter dome for deformation or signs of impact, and listen carefully for any rubbing noise or distortion at moderate volume. Also examine the cabinet (veneer, corners, bass reflex port fittings) and make sure both speakers in the pair have a perfectly matched tone.
