In a Noisy World.
Control the noise, manage synergy and revitalize your sound.
By implementing Core technology, the listener can expand the capability of any audio system by maximizing signal performance.
Core is a unique sound enhancement system, designed for audio and built specifically for the audio enthusiast. The Core is for those who value extreme low noise, detail retrieval enhancement, 3-D soundstage and a personalize sound profile system with plug and play easy access.
The Core's unique filters and user interface enhance a system's ability to create a vibrantly immersive soundstage, regardless of the system's cost. This feature alone will satisfy most audio enthusiasts, but the Core experience offers even more.
With its cutting-edge technology and interactive interface, the Caprice Audio Core takes your listening experience to the next level.
Reap the rewards of your investment and chose your sound profile.
While listening, you can activate several sound profiles. Core profiling is an entirely new method that help users chose the ideal response of an individual component or system. All changes occur in-step with musical timing precision and no artifacts.
The Core stands out with its innovative profile design, seamlessly blending individual noise filters and discrete connectors. It also boasts a unique plug-and-play interface that tackles frequency-related distortion effortlessly.
Frequency related noise attributes:
100-300 Hz. Too little loses body, too much removes clarity
200-500 Hz. Warmth area: sets tonality
500-750 Hz. Too much sounds muddy
600-1.1 KHz.. Too much can sound honky.
1-3 KHz. Easily understood voice versus masking
3-6 KHz. 3D image versus "ghostly"
9-15 KHz. Sharpness versus sparkle
10-20 KHz. Air & spaciousness
**the frequency related noise attributes are suggestive examples**
Digging deep into the Core.
The tech behind the Core is called Slipstream™. The Slipstream path is a proprietary system of connections, acoustic filters and a profile interface that neutralize noise without compromising signal fidelity. This allows the true nature of a device to function with little compromise. All devices produce some level of noise artifacts and at times, DC power supply leaks and faulty cable connections, can produce inexplicable adverse responses. It's important to understand that our listening ability is limited when it comes to "noise detection" within musical lines; but a user feedback system is crucial to isolating the issues that often are mistakenly directed.
"The big reveal".. Hear the music flow.
As components coalesce signal information, Core is exceptionally adept at arming listeners with the ability to create a clear dimensional window leading to the discovery phase that elevate the audio experience. To hear familiar tracks sound "new" never gets old.
At the heart of the Core is proprietary interface that reduces noise by placing system tuning, and end to end noise control capability in the hands of the listener. From 2 channel users to headphone enthusiasts, the Core accentuates the sound at musicianship level.
For the experienced Core user, Core's advanced fascia makes system calibration easy to master. For more advanced circumstance, the listener has the option to use room set up software with the Core.
How good is the Core?
Core sets a new universal standard offering component matching configuration for most domestic and international systems.
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.
The Core structure..
The Core chassis, crafted from a single billet of aluminum, forms a protective shield. To boost performance, we implemented a new chassis design to further isolate the Slipstream. The improved signal behavior inspired us to revisit the overall design, hence the Coretessa.
The Coretessa represents a fresh bold approach to redefine the chassis-signal distortion relationship. Our ultimate goal is to benchmark stability and elevate performance to their absolute peak.
Did you hear? We debut our new flagship at Capital Audiofest 2024. Please see Copper Magazine Show report review by Frank Doris. We were thrilled to partner with Audio Thesis importers of the Rossofiorentino speakers.

To Find signal in a noisy world, build a bridge with the Core.
Achieving system synergy is always an issue with audio components, whether they are audiophile high-end quality or not.
The good news is Core scales with cost no object systems.
Listen and compare.
The complete Core System lineup includes the new Oasis interconnects and speaker cables. For best system performance, Oasis produces a balanced coherent tone to match the Core's unique footprint.
The Core is a universal noise solution aimed at achieving maximum sound quality from any current or future audio system.

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 new Oasis interconnects and speaker cables combine to form the unique Core integration system.

Consumer tested 2 years
Product introduction "Mosaic Reference".
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.
Mosaic was our first product.
The Core truly excels in its acoustical capabilities, promising an inspiring and impressive experience for even the most demanding music lover. It's worth investigating how room acoustics shift once the system is optimized to fully appreciate its nuances.
Each Core includes:
1. Plug and play guide and instructions.
2. Installation and system calibration.
3. Custom high-grade acoustical filters.
4. 1 year warranty and support.

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!
