Cadence

Cadence began its activities way back in India in 1991, as a research unit to research into new transducer technologies, aimed at improving existing ones based on electrostatic speakers, and focussed on designing hybrid loudspeakers around much new technology based electrostatic speaker units.

A full-scale research laboratory for audio was established in Pune, in 1996, equipped with a large anechoic chamber and cutting-edge research tools and software.

The research resulted in several products based around entirely new approaches to producing electrostatic drivers, and mainly aimed at removing the problems associated with conventionally available electrostatic driver units. The major problems addressed with novel materials and solutions were aimed at getting wider dispersion from electrostatic panels, ensuring very high efficiencies hitherto never achieved by electrostatic drivers, and also making them resistant to humidity and dust.
