Piega Ace 50 Wireless Speakers (TX + RX)

The Ace Wireless speakers consist of a Tx speaker and an Rx speaker. The Tx (transmitter) speaker transmits high-definition music instantly and wirelessly to one or more Rx (receiver) speakers. The Piega Ace 50 Wireless speakers are connected tower speakers, designed and manufactured in Switzerland. They combine elegant design, versatile connectivity, and exceptional audio performance, offering an immersive and high-quality listening experience.

Design and Finishes

The Ace 50 Wireless features a modern and sleek design that blends harmoniously into any interior. Their distinctive oval shape and contemporary aesthetics are the work of Swiss designer Stephan Hürlemann. The speakers come with an aluminum cabinet available in three finishes: sandblasted silver, anodized black, or lacquered white. This noble material adds a touch of elegance while optimizing acoustic performance.

With a height of 105 cm, a width of 14 cm, and a depth of 16 cm, the Ace 50 Wireless boasts a slim silhouette that remains discreet despite its size. Each speaker rests on a circular base with a diameter of 25 cm, ensuring perfect stability. The weight varies from 14 kg for the silver version to 16 kg for the black and white models.

Connectivity and Streaming

One of the major strengths of the Ace 50 Wireless lies in its extensive connectivity. They integrate numerous streaming clients, making it easy to enjoy music from a wide variety of devices:

• Apple AirPlay 2 for wireless streaming from an iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple TV
• Spotify Connect, compatible with Spotify HiFi for high-definition sound
• Google Chromecast for streaming from an Android device or computer
• Roon Ready for seamless integration with Roon software
• Bluetooth for universal wireless connection
• DLNA for accessing your music library on the home network

In addition to streaming, the Ace 50 Wireless offers multiple physical inputs for optimal connectivity with audio sources:

• HDMI eARC to receive high-resolution sound from your TV
• Coaxial and optical inputs for digital sources
• Analog stereo input for older devices

The speakers can also be integrated into a wireless multichannel system up to 7.1 by pairing them with other models from the Ace Wireless range. Audio transmission between the speakers is done in high-resolution quality up to 24 bits / 192 kHz.

Integration with the TV

In addition to being standalone stereo speakers, the Ace 50 Wireless is designed to easily integrate with a TV and enhance the home theater experience. The HDMI eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel) connection allows for high-definition sound from the TV without latency.

If the TV is WiSA certified, the connection can even be established wirelessly for more flexibility. WiSA is a standard that guarantees wireless audio transmission in studio quality up to 24 bits / 96 kHz. Otherwise, a simple optical or coaxial cable can be used to connect the speakers to the TV.

Sound Quality

Acoustically, the Ace 50 Wireless stands out with high-fidelity sound reproduction and impressive performance. Each speaker is equipped with:

• 1 exclusive AMT (Air Motion Transformer) ribbon tweeter by Piega. It ensures high precision and clarity in the treble.
• 1 120 mm midrange driver with MDS (Magnetic Drive System) cone in a separate compartment. It offers realistic and detailed vocals.
• 4 120 mm bass drivers with MDS cone for deep and articulated bass. Their cellulose membrane and cast aluminum frame guarantee speed and precision.

This 3-way configuration covers a very wide frequency range from 30 Hz to 25 kHz. Digital Signal Processors (DSP) optimize the frequency response for linear and balanced reproduction across the entire spectrum.

With a power of 200 W and a sensitivity of 90 dB, the Ace 50 Wireless delivers a wide and dynamic sound, capable of filling large rooms without distortion. Their controlled directivity ensures a stable and coherent stereo image.

Control Application

The speakers can be controlled via the free Piega Connect app, available on iOS and Android. It allows easy system configuration, source selection, volume adjustment, and access to streaming services. The app also includes acoustic presets tailored to different speaker placements in the room.
