Floorstanding loudspeakers — Opera Loudspeakers Opera Seconda

The Opera Seconda is a floorstanding loudspeaker from Opera Loudspeakers, sitting above the Opera Grand Mezza with notably high sensitivity and an exceptionally wide bandwidth. The Opera Seconda brings Opera's more accomplished current engineering to a substantial floorstanding format.

Key specs that matter

Rated response spans an exceptionally wide 30Hz to 30,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB. Sensitivity is notably high at 89dB into a demanding 4 ohm load, with recommended amplifier power specified at 120W. At 102 x 24.5 x 43cm and 45kg, the Opera Seconda represents a serious floorstanding commitment reflecting Opera's more accomplished current engineering standards.

Sound and use context

Expect explosive dynamic headroom reflecting the notably high 89dB sensitivity combined with the exceptionally wide 30Hz-30kHz bandwidth, meaning this speaker reaches satisfying volumes readily from a wide range of amplifiers.

Pairing

The demanding 4 ohm impedance and specified 120W power call for a reasonably capable amplifier with genuine current delivery.

Alternatives

Opera's own Opera Grand Mezza offers a more compact alternative within the same broader floorstanding catalogue.
