Your Way.
Introduce your system to us, we'll take care of the rest.
Core Technology redefines Optimization.
Core is a multi-functional noise management system.
Core's welcoming interface and control has a surprising effect on high-caliber systems. " See Soundadvocate.com review December 2023.
The Core is a culmination of technologies woven from several of our products. One standout feature is the SEP™ profile.
Great control, balance, and flexibility are interwoven into the Core's Sound Enhancement Profile (SEP). There is no signature or sound that counts more than the artist own. But for the avid music enthusiast, home playback carries the burden of choosing the right components and assembling the best system. There is no perfect system, only the tireless pursuit of musical expression.
If optimization matters in the pursuit of perfection then SEP is for you.
Core SEP -Unleashed.
Please note, results will vary. Customer's personal notes. "TUU"- Tidal streaming. SEP activated.
".. while listening on several tracks, I notice an interesting change in texture throughout the album. I describe it as density in spaces between sounds. There is more solidity to the music. This is a tangible atmospheric shift that is a common trait of tube equipment. This is highly surprising and addictive".
Slipstreaming the delta between signal and noise.
The tech behind the Core is called Slipstream™. Slipstream is a proprietary system that neutralizes noise adding stability without compromising dynamic contrast.
In short, your system will suddenly WAKE UP!
The Slipstream system counteracts a wide range of noise frequencies while harmonics remain intact.
The move from Wave Stream™ to Slipstream™.
The Core effect.
In the early years of development, the viability of the Wave Stream™filter system was tested and customer opinion was invaluable to understanding the importance of identifying how sound optimization could enrich the listening experience.
The sound you choose mated to the music you enjoy.
Core SEP offers engaging sound, easy operation, and superb flexibility. Choosing a sound profile and optimizing a system are not new ideas. This is a controversial area for audiophile purists. The concept is important in understanding the Core's true mission.
"The big reveal".
Faithful to the source realism. From DAC, to amplifier, to speakers, Core's unique combination of interactivity, sound enhancing flexibility and easy operation will impress the most demanding audiophile.
How good is the Core?
The answer is simple. Play with the interface, find your personal SEP. You will discover how the Core can be intensely revealing and enjoyable to use.
Make room boundaries disappear.
If you have a sweet tooth like me, you will find configuring a listening room with digital software and Core Optimization, a sweet experience.
Core technology has been successfully implemented in many systems that include components from DCS Rossini Apex, Boulder, Wilson Audio, Nelson Pass, Infigo Audio, Kr Audio, Krell, Mola Mola, Norma audio and Lumin. The Core works with most noise control devices from Audioquest, Nordost and has proven utility with AV home theatre systems.

Key summary.
Step 1. The Core is based on the Slipstream multi-device noise shunting platform.
Step 2. We provide an open source concept for user calibration. Instead of digital algorithms, we use high-speed analog filters to help you quickly engage with your music.
Step 3. While a single Core makes it possible to optimize up to six devices, a double Core system is even more revealing and immersive musical experience.
Step 4. To achieve stunning results, combine the Core with our new Oasis cable™.
The Core is a real-world noise management solution offering audiophiles a refine level of performance.
The Caprice Audio Oasis interconnects and speaker cables combine with Core SEP completes the transformation.
Brief History:
The journey began in 2016 with our first product, the Mosaic.
Reviews online at Headphone.guru, Dagogo and the Soundadvocate.
The Mosaic was three years in development and two years consumer tested.
Caprice Audio presented the original Mosaic Reference to headphone enthusiasts at Denver, Washington, DC., Chicago and New York City Head-fi Shows.
In Chicago, we received acknowledgement for outstanding performance from HiFi+ Editors Chris Martens and Alan Sircom.
Enjoy the Core's acoustical capabilities. An area to explore is the changes with room acoustics when implementing system calibration tools. The Core's interactive plug and play experience will impress even the most demanding music lover.
Each Core includes:
1. Plug and play guide and instructions.
2. Installation and system calibration support.
3. Custom high-grade acoustical filters.
4. 1 year warranty.
Contact [email protected] for information on custom options.
Our first product launch Axpona 2018.
Chris Martens Hi Fi+: "The new firm Caprice Audio showed its impressive new Mosaic Wave Stream hybrid Technology passive filter, which made for one of the more eye-opening demonstrations I heard at Canjam. Looking back over that last sentence it occurs to me that a more apt descriptor would be to call the Mosaic a passive noise floor reducer".
"The diversity in equipment is mind blowing. The challenge to audiophiles is how to properly match all the pieces to produce a desirable outcome. The Core is an important step in managing and optimizing all components to function as one musical system." Luis Alberto

"What I found amazing was the effect (Mosaic) builds over time.
Why this should be
I have no idea, but it is completely unprecedented. After 24 hours I was able to perceive about a 3db drop in noise floor (with no signal present)...after a couple of days it may have fallen even further".

The Core is a new multi-functional system built for the Audio enthusiast. You will be thrilled with the new interface giving users ultimate flexibility.
It is more important to focus on finding system synergy than focusing on the individual component when seeking the highest system performance.
"..The improvements I did notice was an exceptionally expanded soundstage, instruments had better timbre or tonality, the bass is cleaner (less bloated), and lastly, digital files and CD's had less of an edge or more of that vinyl sound- a small price to pay for such enhancements". The one thing I do regret is that I didn't have two Reference units to try on my Volterra loudspeakers- oh such regret!
I know that audio enthusiasts will have endless hours of enjoyment playing the "game" of Mosaic as the combinations available will keep you involved...."
theSoundadvocate.com Review by Marvin Bolden
If I were rating this product, I will give it 11 out of 10. I have a long list of reasons but the main one is the transformation. My Tidal master quality tracks sound phenomenal! When I added the second Mosaic, I no longer feel the need to upgrade anything in my system. I am sorry for not believing you. You should be glad to hear, I am keeping both ELITE Mosaics. Two is better than one!
