Chario Aviator Cielo
Chario Loudspeakers are handbuilt, manufactured and assembled in Italy.
A powerful loudspeaker capable of transmitting with its only presence a sense of extraordinary power. Its beauty lies not only in the beauty of solid wood side panels but in the extraordinary performances Cielo is capable. The ability to comprehend, in a clear and complete way, the complex music structure at low frequencies brings our perceptive system into a serenity and relaxation area, minimizing listening fatigue and delivering the highest quality and maximum perceptibility. The size of the virtual stage will be exciting, the width and the depth will be sensational as well as the detail that will take you realistically at the time of the original event, as if you are present at the concert you are listening to.
The location of all drivers is already defined in the design stage, and this enables accurate tuning of the relationship between the speaker and the listening-room. The Aviator series is characterized in terms of construction for the presence of a central structure and the side panels, commonly known as the sandwich structure. The central body of the cabinet is made of a material composed of resin and wood fiber called HDF (high density fiberboard). The side panels are made of solid wood, and are applied to the sides of the central cabinet. This particular structure guarantees an absolute top in terms of stiffness and damping of vibrations that the cabinet moves. The work, the choice of materials, finishes and controls are entirely manufactured in Italy in Chario’s manufacturing facilities. All the cabinets of their speakers are made in-house. The production process is handmade. Each model of speaker is realized with a specific cabinet studied as an integral part of the acoustic drawing.
