Acoustic Frontiers is the Western U.S. importer of Cassini Tradition and Cassini Carbon loudspeakers, and the parent company of HYPERSUB™ subwoofers, expertly handcrafted by Harbottle Audio.
Request A QuoteHarbottle Audio is the force behind Cassini Tradition, Cassini Carbon, and HYPERSUB subwoofers—an elite portfolio where advanced engineering meets artisanal craftsmanship. Each product is a fusion of cutting-edge technology, meticulous handcrafting, and innovative acoustic design, built to surpass industry standards and redefine the listening experience for audiophiles and home theater connoisseurs alike.
At the core of every Cassini and HYPERSUB product is Harbottle Audio’s proprietary Low Distortion, Low Compression (LDLC) methodology. While most manufacturers rely on limited small-signal efficiency specs and vague maximum SPL claims, Harbottle prioritizes real-world performance—specifically, the ability to reproduce large-signal dynamics at reference levels with virtually no distortion or compression.
Through rigorous LDLC validation at full output, each Cassini and HYPERSUB subwoofer is engineered to deliver clean, articulate, and high-impact bass—even under extreme conditions. This process doesn’t just suppress distortion; it eliminates it, along with compression artifacts, ensuring unwavering fidelity and dynamic range.
This is more than an incremental upgrade. It’s a radical correction of the industry’s long-standing compromises. Gone are the bloated, indistinct bass signatures of conventional high-output subwoofers. In their place: tight, responsive, and emotionally resonant low-frequency reproduction that maintains nuance, speed, and tonal clarity—even at full throttle.
Every Cassini and HYPERSUB subwoofer is artisan-crafted in Canada. Transducers feature hand-laid carbon fiber cones and powerful neodymium motors machined from U.S.-sourced steel. Enclosures are constructed from void-free plywood with shop-sawn hardwood veneers or structural laminated carbon fiber. Each unit undergoes more than 500 precision-verified quality control steps, guaranteeing that the performance of every shipped product matches the original engineering reference.
