As Audison say, it’ll forever follow its istinto innovative.
Voce II Series - Giving Sound It's True Voice
Representing a monumental leap forward in car audio innovation, the Voce II range is directly inspired by Audison's superb flagship Thesis series. So when Audison claim that the Voce II range is born from Thesis excellence; you can rest assured it's not just some hastily conjured marketing hype. Indeed every component of the Voce II line has been developed with the same meticulous methodology that made Audison's Thesis range famous around the world. Employing advanced acoustic simulation software throughout the entire design process, the Voce II components then underwent a rigorous regime of electrical, physical, acoustical and comparative listening tests; both in-lab and in-car. This refinement process ensures that Voce II range delivers uncompromising audio performance, while remaining practical and versatile to satisfy the high-end car audio enthusiast.
Asked recently what the Voce II range stood for, technical director Luca Girotti explained "Voce II, the second generation of our iconic Voce line of speakers, challenged ourselves to rethink how we design, test and manufacture speakers. We've revamped materials, supply chains, assembly techniques and packaging. Our goal was to "unlearn” in order to further innovate, and to "reinforce our expertise" where we knew we were on the right track. This dedication ensures that every aspect of Voce II range not only meets but exceeds the sophisticated demands of today's car audio enthusiasts."

The Voce II range is designed for those who appreciate the distinct sound characteristics of a high-quality passive system.
Elettromedia eID Technology
All Voce II components incorporate eID, Elettromedia Group’s exclusive traceability technology. Each product is assigned an eID code linked to its serial number upon passing quality control checks. A laser-etched DataMatrix is then applied, designating the product’s destination country or market at the time of shipment. By scanning the eID code users can access technical, manufacturing and logistical information; as well as register the product to receive an additional year of warranty coverage. The eID technology ensures that every Voce II component is authenticated, giving users confidence in the product’s origin and quality.
Design Features
The rich heritage of this astute and masterful designer, together with its ever-increasing technical acumen; is conducive to these components featuring a vast array of impressive design ideologies and latest technological advancements. Let’s delve further into some of them below.
The Finite Element Methodology
The development process of the Voce II range was conducted using advanced finite element method (FEM) simulation tools, allowing precise modeling of each component’s acoustic performance. This approach optimises frequency response and sound dispersion and minimises distortion for clear, natural sound in every listening environment.
For the tweeters, finite element method simulating was particularly crucial in achieving high-resolution audio certification by enabling precise enhancements to the dome geometry and magnetic assembly. This ensures optimal high-frequency extension up to 40000 Hz, providing detailed, highly accurate sound reproduction and improved off-axis response. This makes them ideal for in-car listening.
The Details Lurk Within The Materials
Every component within the Voce II line has been crafted with the finest materials, carefully chosen to ensure exceptional acoustic performance and refined aesthetics. The cones and inverted dust caps are made from semi-pressed paper, delivering an ideal balance of stiffness and lightness for accurate, responsive sound. Many dome materials that may have a more exotic appearance have poor internal damping and breakup modes, resulting in audible distortion in the vital upper midrange frequencies. Audison’s Tetolon dome, Tetolon being a combination of silk and cotton; allows it to meet high-resolution audio standards while retaining the internal damping of a soft dome tweeter. This allows the low-frequency performance which has become synonymous with Audison tweeters, allowing it to deliver the off-axis upper midrange warmth that is so often lacking in automotive speaker systems.
The construction of each component features an all-metal design, including covers and embossed logos; combining durability with a premium feel. Additionally, the Voce II packaging reflects a commitment to sustainability; with environmentally friendly interior materials employed to minimise environmental impact whilst ensuring that each product reaches its destination safely.
Fine Tuned Via Extensive Listening Sessions
A crucial phase of the Voce II development involved validation through comparative listening tests. Each component was rigorously tested in various configurations, both in test enclosures and in cars. This guarantees you optimal performance under all conditions. These listening sessions further refined the design too, ensuring the Voce II range delivers an authentic and uncompromising sound experience every time.
Faston Connectors For Perfect Integration
The Voce II line offers dual connection options, providing flexibility and versatility. Woofer and coaxial are equipped with both an OEM-style automotive connector and traditional Faston connectors. This option allows the installer to choose the connection method best suited to the specific project’s needs.
The availability of both connections simplifies and streamlines the installation process. Thanks to this feature installers can work more efficiently without constraints, ensuring optimal results in both sound performance and vehicle integration. The dual connection option represents another step toward customisation and adaptability, meeting the needs of every car audio enthusiast.
Simply Tremendous Treble
The AV 1.1 II tweeter was developed with a no-compromise approach, aiming for maximum performance in high-frequency reproduction. Every detail, from the materials used to the geometry of the magnetic assembly; was carefully studied to achieve exceptional acoustic performance. Thus ensuring detailed and accurate sound reproduction even in the most demanding listening conditions.
The AV 1.1 II uses a larger chamber, which improves the impedance and damping characteristics and delivers an even-lower resonant frequency. This allows an even lower crossover frequency hand off to the woofer; a key design element of Audison speakers. A woofer in a car door often struggles in the upper midrange, and most tweeters can’t play low enough to take up the difference. AV 1.1 II plays more than an octave lower than other tweeters in its class.
Beyond sound quality, the tweeters in the Voce II line come with distinctive design elements, including an elegant mesh grille and a custom texture spoke grille for a refined and modern look. Each component set also includes a full set of installation accessories, making the installation process easier and ensuring a perfect fit in any vehicle.
That Magnificent Middle
The Voce II range includes bot midrange and midbass components. The human auditory system is particularly sensitive to midrange frequencies, as this is where the voice becomes intelligible compared to the rest of the audio spectrum. Starting from this principle, the Audison engineers designed AV 3.0 II midrange and AV 6.5 P II midbass with an ambitious goal; to achieve ultimate linearity. This means faithfully reproducing the signal without adding or hiding anything, to appreciate the musical message exactly as it was conceived by the artist and producers.
The larger drivers feature completely new motor layouts that deliver nearly a 20% decrease in mounting depth with no reduction in power handling, excursion or low-end response. One way Audison delivers this is through using a voice coil with a far greater diameter.
Not Just Voice But Sound Stage Too
The Voce II components feature optimised dispersion azimuth for an immersive in-car sound stage presence. To achieve uniform acoustic energy distribution, Voce II drivers are optimised to function both on-axis and off-axis. This ensures that the reproduced sound remains accurate and precise as possible, even in the doors or on the pillars where the listener is not perfectly aligned with the speakers. The components have been developed to seamlessly integrate with one another, raising the emission point to create a realistic and immersive sound stage. Thanks to the optimization of the BL force factor and electroacoustic parameters, these components deliver superior performance even in compact enclosures; making them ideal for pillar and door installations.
Crossing The Streams
The Voce II component sets are available in active or passive configuration. The latter passive sets include dedicated crossovers with active filtering flexibility technology. These crossovers are expertly crafted to deliver optimal integration between the drivers, ensuring a seamless and harmonious listening experience. Preconfigured to optimise the acoustic performance of the Voce II speakers, the crossover system ensures effortless installation while delivering consistent and exceptional sound in any vehicle environment. For those who prefer the refined performance of passive filtering, the Voce II crossovers offer a premium auditory experience.
