About the Hyperion
The Acapella Audio Arts Hyperion is a reference-level floorstanding loudspeaker built around a 3-way architecture with four 15-inch bass drivers, a 780 mm hyperspherical horn for the midrange, and Acapella’s ion plasma tweeter for the highest frequencies. It is described as capable of extending to 16 Hz on the low end and beyond 40 kHz on the top end, with a frequency span of more than eleven octaves. The design uses a large, heavily braced cabinet, ceramic silver internal wiring, and customizable finish options including black or white acrylic with horn colors available in any RAL color.
