The company was founded in 1986 on Lake Zurich, and every speaker that wears the Piega badge — from the entry models to the limited-edition flagships — is still assembled by hand in Horgen, Switzerland. The ribbon-tweeter architecture that defines the brand is not borrowed technology. Piega develops and manufactures its own ribbon drivers in-house, including the coaxial ribbon module that places the midrange and treble at a single physical point and resolves the time-alignment problem that conventional two-way and three-way crossovers can only approximate. The cabinets are pulled from a single piece of extruded aircraft-grade aluminum, internally damped with Piega's Tension Improve Module to remove panel resonance before it can color the sound. The result is a presentation that listeners describe in the same vocabulary year after year: fast, clean, dimensionally precise, and free of the boxy signature that almost every traditional cabinet imposes on the music.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Coax 211 Gen2 is the dedicated center channel for a Coax-based home-theater or multi-channel music system. Conventional center channels are the weakest link in most surround setups — usually a horizontal MTM design that compromises off-axis dispersion exactly where the audience is sitting, with a midrange and tweeter physically separated by a woofer in the middle. The Coax 211 Gen2 solves the geometry problem by using the same C112+ coaxial ribbon module found in the Coax 411 and 611, so the midrange and treble radiate from a single point regardless of cabinet orientation. Two 160 mm UHQD woofers flank the coaxial module to handle the bass demands of dialogue and music alike. The cabinet is the same extruded-aluminum architecture with Tension Improve Module 2 as the rest of the Coax line. The result is dialogue intelligibility, vocal presence, and lateral coherence that matches a Coax 411 or 611 used as a left\/right pair — the rare center channel that does not give away the seam between the screen and the music.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSold each. Use one beneath or above the screen in a Coax-based home-theater system, or pair two as front-channel monitors in tight horizontal placements where a vertical bookshelf will not fit.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Coax Gen2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConfiguration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Three-way center channel with coaxial ribbon module, horizontal cabinet\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrivers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 × 160 mm UHQD woofers; 1 × C112+ coaxial ribbon driver\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 35 Hz – 50 kHz\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSensitivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 90 dB\/W\/m\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImpedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 ohms\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Amplification:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 – 250 watts\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (H × W × D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.3\" × 24.4\" × 12.2\" (21 × 62 × 31 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCabinet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Extruded aluminum with Tension Improve Module 2 (TIM2)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStandard Finishes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silver polished aluminum, Black anodized aluminum, White lacquer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSold each.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt by hand in Horgen, Switzerland.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Piega","offers":[{"title":"Silver polished aluminum — each","offer_id":48790581117147,"sku":null,"price":7495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black anodized aluminum — each","offer_id":48790581149915,"sku":null,"price":7495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White lacquer — each","offer_id":48790581182683,"sku":null,"price":7495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1363\/6553\/files\/Center-211-silber-1.png?v=1779242759","url":"https:\/\/almaaudio.com\/products\/piega-coax-211-gen2-center-channel-speaker","provider":"Alma Music and Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
