onde

price : $1,749.00

Onde

with the onde the sound directly comes from the vibrations of the 2 soundboards. there is no speaker cone inside, only acoustic exciters transmitting the vibration into the wood. it is the same principle as for a guitar: the strings themselves make very little sound, but they are transmitting their vibrations to the soundboard through the bridge, and what you hear is the sonic amplification via the soundboard. in the onde's case, the exciter is acting as the bridge and transmits the electric "vibrations" to the wood.

contrary to a traditional speaker which is very directional, the onde and the pyramid are omni-directional. it is a very dispersive and immersive sound. in spite of this immersion effect transients are not compromised, in fact users have reported that transients are more accurate than on traditional speakers. these resonators are not sonically "neutral", as they are not meant to be: they offer a coloured sound carefully tuned by the luthier.
