ALIANTE ONE PININFARINA

The Aliante plant is located near Turin in Italy. Giuseppe Prato is the chief designer of the company, in his designs he prefers

a minimalist approach - clean, simple outlines and a small number of components. In the development of acoustic systems,

the company asked for the help of Paolo Pininfarina, the owner of the famous design studio, best known for the excellent

design of cars "Alfa-Romeo" and "Ferrari". Paolo is now the head of this studio (founded by his grandfather) and was asked

to design a case and a specialized stand for the speakers, resulting in a new hand-made Aliante Pininfarina One with a Vela stand.

The speakers have a rather attractive appearance. They are relatively easy to place

and move, besides, it does not create the

impression that the room is occupied by only one speaker. Due to their ability to localize the location of a point source and

small external cabinet, they usually outperform many larger designs in terms of sound image creation. Retail

Aliante Pininfarina One $3,795. The cost of the Vela stands is $1,395.

The height of the stands is 66 cm. The stand is an aluminum tube of high rigidity.

At both ends of the pipe, thin plates are

fixed - a column is installed on one, the other rests on the floor. A curved chipboard plate runs from the rear edge of the

upper plate to the front edge of the lower plate.

Aliante One are excellent bookshelf speakers with a supernatural ability to reproduce the human voice and create an incredibly

wide and deep sound space (even in a large room) with convincing transparency and dynamics.
