French Speaker Brand Cabasse Now Distributed in Australia by Artisan Audio

Melbourne-based wholesaler Artisan Audio has been appointed as the exclusive Australian distributor of French speaker brand Cabasse.

Founded in 2021, Artisan Audio's team boasts over 45 years of industry experience and over 15 years specifically dealing with Cabasse speakers at retail and wholesale levels. 

Stock of the current range of Cabasse products is already available locally via a growing network of carefully selected specialist and architectural dealers nationwide, according to the company. Artisan Audio says it's also particularly pleased to bring the Cabasse brand to the Australian market "at its lowest pricing in 15 years".

The award-winning Pearl range from Cabasse combines innovative lifestyle designs with class-leading engineering, features, and, most importantly, audio performance. This new generation of high-res streaming active speakers has won acclaim and awards globally, including a coveted Applause Awards for its StereoNET review of the Pearl Akoya loudspeaker ($2,499 RRP).

Cabasse's Pearl range starts at $2,499 for the Akoya mentioned above, up to $49,990 for its flagship Pelegrina model, which is the centrepiece of the Pearl connected speaker range combining the very finest of Cabasse's sound and technologies. It features triaxial speakers as used in the iconic La Sphere speaker system and a massive 3700 watts amplification per channel. The Pearl Pelegrina is a limited edition release of just 70 pairs worldwide, celebrating Cabasse's 70th anniversary.

All Pearl models are active high-resolution connected speakers, providing access to music streaming services such as Spotify, TIDAL, Deezer, Qobuz, and Webradio. They support up to 24-bit/192kHz high-res audio, even when used in multiroom systems. Connectivity includes Ethernet/Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, SPDIF Optical, RCA Analogue, and USB for music on external hard drives.

Artisan Audio believes its "old school approach to customer service" and the relationships it has created between the manufacturer, distributor, retailer, and customer "makes the difference", and it looks forward to growing the Cabasse brand further in Australia.

applause awards

Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.

Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.

The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.

We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
