Ophidian Audio was founded in 2011 in the UK by Gareth James. Gareth has been designing loudspeakers for over 25 years. Every loudspeaker is designed and hand assembled in the UK to exacting quality standards. Hundreds of hours of design, prototyping, measurement and listening tests have gone into creating each and every Ophidian loudspeaker. 

Ophidian loudspeakers feature unique AEROFLEX bass technology which produces clean, fast and accurate bass from both small and large speaker systems.

AEROFLEX is a unique bass loading method that enables even the most compact cabinets to deliver clean, accurate bass. Ported or reflex speakers, as they are commonly known, re-use what would otherwise be wasted energy from the rear of the bass driver to boost the low frequencies. Unfortunately in most systems the size of the port is inadequate leading to unwanted noise and distortion and reduced dynamics.

By utilising a much larger and longer port system AEROFLEX drastically lowers air velocity, properly controlling the driver throughout its stroke. This greatly enhances dynamic range and ensures the speaker produces the same tonal balance at both high and low listening levels. The complex port system is built into the cabinet itself enhancing structural rigidity which in turn improves the quality of the midrange

The electrical crossovers in all Ophidian loudspeakers use components from industry leaders Mundorf (Germany) including audiophile grade capacitors, pure oxygen free copper coils and metal-oxide film resistors. he use of such high quality components ensures that signal integrity is preserved from beginning to end and music sounds as it should

All Ophidian loudspeakers feature drive units designed to deliver music free from distortion and as naturally as possible. To reproduce the high frequency range cleanly we use tweeters from renowned manufacturer SEAS of Norway. Featuring Sonolex coated fabric diaphragms they provide a detailed yet smooth performance that is easy to listen to for long periods.
