Fiesole 2
Pure performance in compact size
It’s the modern connoisseur’s choice, a simple pair of compact high-end passive hi-fi speakers able to bring superb, breathtakingly realistic sound even to small listening rooms.
Fiesole is the quintessential Rosso Fiorentino speaker, the model that marked the beginning of the brand in 2007. Renowned for its pristine sound, musicality, and distinctive design, updating this iconic speaker was a challenge undertaken with great care. The Fiesole 2 version integrates the latest technological advancements while staying true to the original Fiesole’s core strengths.
Fiesole pioneered Rosso Fiorentino’s multi-material construction, where mechanically different materials work together to absorb and damp unwanted resonances. The Fiesole 2 version refines this approach by incorporating additional aluminum side panels, advanced internal damping pads, and a reinforced bracing system that stabilizes the midwoofer magnet, significantly reducing unwanted vibrations. The result is a cabinet that remains exceptionally rigid and inert, allowing the drivers to operate with unmatched clarity and precision.
Fiesole is a two-way rear-vented speaker, featuring a 6.5” Nomex paper woofer with a vented ferrite magnet and a lightweight, long-throw voice coil for outstanding midrange neutrality. The “ribbon/soft dome” tweeter section—a Rosso Fiorentino signature—combines an Italian 28mm silk dome tweeter with a custom ultrasonic ribbon generator, extending the frequency response to 100kHz. This wide bandwidth enhances spatial imaging, transients, and overall naturalness, making Fiesole an ideal companion for high-resolution digital formats and vinyl.
