A MUSICAL LEGACY — THE CABASSE STORY
A MUSICAL LEGACY — THE CABASSE STORY
Cabasse is a French luxury high-fidelity audio company founded in 1950 by Georges Cabasse, an electrical engineer and descendant of French luthiers.
A pioneer of the coaxial speaker (aligning all drivers on the same axis for optimal sound coherence) and major technological advances in acoustic performance, he helped build the reputation of French high-fidelity worldwide. He created iconic speakers such as the Atlantis, La Sphère, the Galions, Sampans, and more, as well as designing unique installations like Le Grand Rex and La Géode in Paris.
True to its origins, Cabasse has always pursued the perfect reproduction of music and sound—without any alteration, coloration, or distortion.
Over the years (the brand is now over 75 years old), Cabasse has adapted to new uses and emerging technologies, especially in streaming, and has established itself in the Luxury Wireless Audio* market. This evolution accelerated after its acquisition in 2014 by Veom Group, a specialist since 2003 in connectivity technologies dedicated to the smart home universe.
This union of acoustic expertise and software innovation has enabled Cabasse to create the broadest range of high-resolution wireless systems, while continuing to expand its catalog of premium passive speakers.
Since 2003, Cabasse has been based at the Brest Technopole site, facing the ocean. The brand featuring the Lissajous symbol enjoys an inspiring and stimulating environment where acoustic innovation meets the raw beauty of the Breton coastline.
It is in this unique setting that our high-fidelity speakers are born—crafted with uncompromising standards to deliver acoustic emotions that endure over time.
Cabasse is present in more than 40 countries and is listed on Euronext Growth.

A UNIQUE ACOUSTIC EXPERTISE
A UNIQUE ACOUSTIC EXPERTISE
Cabasse masters internally the four pillars of the audio industry.
First, the drivers — from the design of membranes and motors to assembly and testing; then amplification — including the design of electronic boards and programming of key components such as DSPs; mechanics —
materials and design optimized acoustically; and finally software — with millions of lines of code developed in-house and deployed in millions of devices, ensuring longevity and reliability.
All our speakers are meticulously designed by our acoustic engineers and imagined by our design team to deliver the best sound in every format, style, and use case to satisfy you today and tomorrow:
from exceptional systems like LA SPHÈRE to classic or lifestyle speakers, connected devices, home theaters, built-in solutions, or portable models.
ACOUSTICS
• Coaxial technology (initially 3-way, then 4-way) for pure and natural sound.
• HELD™ technology for deeper, more powerful, and distortion-free bass.
TECHNOLOGIES
• DEAP™: optimized matching between amplification and speakers
• DFE™: perfect sound balance
• CRCS: automatic acoustic calibration and optimization
CONNECTIVITY
- StreamCONTROL, the Cabasse app for seamless multiroom and multisource connectivity

MATERIALS AND MANUFACTURING
MATERIALS AND MANUFACTURING
The artisanal heart of the Cabasse house features specialized workshops dedicated to the production of speakers, drivers, and composite or carbon membranes—crafted using in-house designed machines and robots, as well as precision control equipment and anechoic chambers that guarantee an exceptionally high standard of quality for each unit.
These spaces, equipped with precision instruments, enable our teams to bring our creations to life.
This is also where our functional prototypes are born, along with custom tooling essential for refining our high-fidelity speakers.
All our top-tier speakers are entirely designed and hand-assembled in our workshops by our specialists, who ensure a unique artisanal expertise.
INSTALLATIONS DEDICATED TO SOUND PRECISION
INSTALLATIONS DEDICATED TO SOUND PRECISION
At our site in Brittany, 1,200 m² of production workshops include a unique 500 m³ anechoic chamber, engineered with no solid connection to the surrounding building. This design provides exceptional sound isolation, essential for acoustic measurements of absolute precision. Additionally, there is a separate anechoic chamber dedicated to production.
EXTREME TESTING FOR THE HIGHEST STANDARDS

To push the limits of performance even further, a dedicated underground bunker has been specially outfitted. Shielded from external disturbances and prying eyes, it hosts our power and reliability tests, ensuring that every Cabasse product withstands the test of time and the most demanding use cases.
