Floorstanding loudspeakers — Acapella Hyperion

The Hyperion is a legendary horn-loaded floorstanding loudspeaker from Acapella, sitting below the HYPERSPHERE with staggering sensitivity and mass. The Hyperion brings Acapella's most storied horn-loaded engineering heritage to a substantial floorstanding format.

Key specs that matter

Rated response spans an exceptionally deep 16Hz to 40,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB - deeper than the HYPERSPHERE's 18Hz. Sensitivity is a staggering 96dB into the standard 8 ohm load - somewhat more modest than the HYPERSPHERE's 103dB but still extraordinary by any conventional standard. At 247 x 78 x 94cm and a staggering 300kg, the Hyperion represents a monumental commitment reflecting Acapella's most storied horn-loaded engineering heritage.

Sound and use context

Expect the immediate, dynamically alive character Acapella's legendary horn-loaded driver technology is broadly celebrated for, with the staggering 96dB sensitivity meaning this speaker reaches satisfying volumes readily from even the most minimal amplifier power.

Pairing

The staggering 96dB sensitivity makes the Hyperion compatible with virtually any amplifier, including the most minimal single-ended triode designs.

Alternatives

Acapella's own TRIOLON EXCALIBUR offers a more accessible alternative within the same broader horn-loaded catalogue.
