Tune Audio
Website:https://www.tuneaudio.com/
Tune Audio is a Greek maker of fully horn-loaded loudspeakers, based in Voula near Athens and founded by Manolis Proestakis. Its floorstanders reach sensitivities between 97 and 109 dB, so most of them run from just a few watts, and the range is completed by two active horn subwoofers. Each speaker is built to order, with the customer choosing any paint colour or a natural wood veneer.
Range & what it's known for
The entry point is the Marvel, a two-way design with an 8-inch wide-range driver in a back-loaded bass horn and a titanium compression driver above it, rated at 97 dB and over 5 W. Prime uses a similar wide-range driver with a revised bass horn. Anima is a three-way model with a 15-inch downward-firing woofer, a 5-inch midrange made in-house and a 1-inch compression driver, quoted at 109 dB and over 3 W. Epitome and Avaton are the three-way, all-passive references at 105 dB, using 15-inch and 18-inch bass drivers. Pulse and KION are active horn subwoofers, the KION with a 12-inch woofer and a 100 W amplifier.
Who owns it and where it's made
Proestakis runs the company from Voula in Attica. Tune Audio designs each horn first and then picks drivers to suit it, sourcing units from European and Japanese makers and modifying them in its own workshop. Bass and mid horns are made from 13-layer Baltic birch plywood, the treble horns are cast from an epoxy compound, and internal wiring is OFC copper with waxed cotton insulation.
The lineup in this catalog
Floorstanding horn loudspeakers including Marvel, Epitome, Avaton and Anima, plus the Pulse and KION subwoofers.
Who it's for
Tune Audio is aimed at owners of low-power single-ended valve amplifiers or low-feedback Class A solid-state designs, which the maker recommends for every model. Marvel works in rooms with about 2 m of listening distance, while Anima and Epitome need at least 3 m and Avaton about 4 m, so the upgrade path follows room size as much as budget. Anima weighs 75 kg per speaker and stands 158 cm tall, and level and beam angle of the upper horns can be adjusted on most models to match the listening seat.
