Better music through ultimate direct coupling - Ceraone by finite elemente
Finite elemente expands its sound enhancing Cera series with the new entry-level model Ceraone, offering excellent value for money.
Based on the well-proven CERA technology, which was specifically developed for this purpose, the only 26 mm high component feet for HiFi components such as CD- and DVD players, amplifiers or loudspeakers simply “draw off” unwanted resonance directly where it evolves. The advantage: no resonance accumulation, no “over-damping”, no loss of sound.
The cutting edge, award-winning technology of the leading manufacturer of innovative high-end racks offers demanding fans of music through direct coupling of their audio components better resolution, better soundstage, better dynamics. And better music. Ceraone comes in a convenient set of 4 pieces, in silver or black anodized aluminum. Now available!

Invisible stereo with voluminous sound quality
Having launched successfully the innovative soundboard Hohrizontal 51, the German company finite
elemente now introduces the sound mirror Mirror 62, thus setting new standards in the
integration of sound.
When you first experience Mirror 62, you can‘t actually tell where the music is coming from. So it‘s
all the more surprising when you discover that there is a complete music system concealed behind
the mirror. Excellent sound. Absolutely minimalist design.
The core of the Mirror 62 is based on the audio technology of the Hohrizontal 51 and is optimised for
flat-surface wall mounting. The result is an amazingly powerful and voluminous sound. Emanating
from a concealed source in the room.
Music is supplied to the Mirror 62 from iPods®, iPhones® and other devices via Bluetooth. The
perfect sound system for your home, even in portrait format. Whether living room, dressing room,
bathroom or study. Available in three different sizes– in black, white or silver or even without frame.

Cult soundboard is no longer alone
finite elemente now offers a complete line of shelving elements with a lifestyle design:
The soundboard Hohrizontal 51, which has received several honours, is now available individually without music.
Solo 51 is its name, although you can use it in many different combinations. Solo is a real eye-catcher on the wall –
whether it is alone or in a group, with or even without a soundboard.
Solo 51 also functions as a stylish upgrade of the brilliant iPod dock. Thanks to its resourceful designer from Sauerland, Germany,
you can now expand the sonorous shelf Hohrizontal 51 to become a fully-fledged shelving system. And all of this in consistently high-quality
workmanship.
The shelf Solo 51 is available – as is the soundboard Hohrizontal 51 – in six trendy high-gloss lacquer colours as
well as classic walnut veneer. It is delivered along with an adjustable mount that is completely concealed behind the
shelf after assembly. You can mount the shelf in a few simple steps.
SOLO 51 is available from mid-June 2011 in specialised furniture shops.
red dot design award for cult soundboard
The soundboard Hohrizontal 51 by finite elemente has just been distinguished with the renowned
“red dot design award”. In the category "product design 2011," the shelf with an integrated sound system
was distinguished with the label “red dot: best of the best,” the top award for design quality.
After already having won the Interior Innovation Award 2011, the most prestigious design prize for the
furnishings branch that is annually awarded at the imm Cologne, the innovative iPhone dock was able
to convince a jury of experts for the second time this year.
Around 1,700 companies from 60 countries participated with over 4,000 applications for the red dot design award.
Only the very best products were able to convince the reputable jury of experts.
The international jury awarded the “red dot: best of the best” honour to finite elemente’s Soundboard Hohrizontal 51.
Up against the wall!
Apple‘s iPod is often seen as being more of a lifestyle accessory than a hifi component.
Audio furniture specialist Finite Elemente has successfully combined these two aspects with its fine soundboard docking station.
The music is full-bodied and mellow, offers finely accentuated trebles and an almost discolouration-free mid-range.

With the new "Emperor" rack Finite Elemente is pioneering a new method to actively cancel out vibration
Even if the Emperor is actually an item of audio furniture, it is still a fine piece of furniture with a majestic
appearance to match any exclusive furnishings of Italian manufacture.
But that is all no more than a desirable side-effect of the Emperor's performance,
as the real gain is to be found in the increase in authenticity, three-dimensionality
and removal of the loudspeaker spectrum.
