Titanium Hestia

About the Titanium Hestia

The Alta Audio Titanium Hestia is a reference-grade loudspeaker designed with advanced technology and materials to deliver exceptional sound quality. It features a unique open-back D’Appolito configuration with midrange drivers placed above and below a custom-built amorphous core ribbon tweeter, creating a unified wideband pulse response that closely mimics the original sound pulse. The drivers use titanium formers for smoother dynamics, enhanced power handling, and extended frequency response. The woofer is a 10-inch titanium former driver tuned with Alta's proprietary XTL bass technology for deep, distortion-free bass extending below human hearing. The midrange section includes two 7-inch titanium former lower midranges and one 6-inch hex cone titanium former upper midrange. The cabinet uses a proprietary DampHard construction to minimize resonance and maintain clarity. The speaker is designed for bi-wiring or bi-amping and requires 50 to 400 watts of amplification. It offers a frequency response of 28Hz to 47kHz, sensitivity of 90 dB at 2.83 volts/1 meter, and a nominal impedance of 4 ohms. Dimensions are approximately 53.75 inches tall, 15 inches wide at the base narrowing to 8.5 inches at the top, and 18 inches deep, weighing 135 pounds each. The Titanium Hestia is highly regarded for its clarity, dynamic range, deep bass, and realistic soundstage, making it a favorite among audiophiles and reviewers alike.
