Fine Details and Natural Voices with the Piega Premium 801 Gen2

In quiet passages, it is not just volume that counts, but how clearly subtle tonal components remain distinguishable from one another. The newly developed RM 01-24 tweeter with horn front piece ensures fast transient response and even horizontal sound dispersion. At the same time, the design reduces unwanted reflections from the floor and ceiling.

A dedicated midrange driver is available for voices. Its FSD technology supports linear diaphragm movement and low distortion. The woofers complement the sound with controlled low-end extension and level stability when music transitions from a restrained opening to a powerful performance.

Aluminium and Clean Lines on the Piega Premium 801 Gen2

The cabinet made of extruded aluminium profile forms a rigid base. Additional wooden matrix bracing and damping materials reduce cabinet resonances.

The slim silhouette and drivers integrated without visible screws maintain the clean design. The Premium 801 is developed and manufactured at the PIEGA factory on Lake Zurich.

Placement and Accessories for the Piega Premium 801 Gen2

The cabinet design also allows for wall-adjacent placement. The included round base continues the silhouette; alternatively, the speaker can be placed lower using the included furniture glides.

The separately available LTD base plate for the Premium 801 offers a crossbar with height-adjustable spikes. This allows the speaker to be precisely aligned. It is optional and not required for operation.

Amplifier and Connection on the Piega Premium 801 Gen2

The connection to the amplifier is made via speaker cables to the PIEGA Multi Connectors II. In addition to the classic connection, the terminal supports bi-wiring.

A separate amplifier is required. Its suitability for the speaker impedance and the recommended power should be checked before connection. Further information on this can be found in the technical specifications
