CASSINA

This radio is a call to innovation, revolutionary for the times in which it was created, and always loved for its great evocative capacity.

A unique aesthetic with equally innovative electronics. Essential in lines and materials, it has a structure formed by two sheets of extra-tempered glass and a body in matt black lacquered MDF, and by the electronic component.

This radio was originally conceived by Franco Albini as a prototype model for his home in 1938. The idea was born when the architect received a traditional wooden radio cabinet as a wedding gift. Given its embalmed and clumsy appearance, he decided to disassemble and then reassemble it, to see only the essential electrical components. The goal was to show only what he believed was actually needed, that is, all the technical-functional components, consequently removing the excess material and breaking down the device to enhance its true essence.

The excellent sound performance of the radio can be further enhanced through a 50W Wireless Subwoofer (optional) which, thanks to the low-frequency transmission, creates an even more immersive experience. As a sign of authenticity, each copy bears the logo and signature of Franco Albini, in addition to the progressive numbering that acts as the identity card that accompanies each piece of the Cassina “I Maestri” Collection.
