• 26 mm soft dome tweeter + 180 mm aluminum woofer for smooth highs and controlled, dynamic bass
• 50 Hz – 21 kHz response with a well-balanced, natural tonal character
• Carefully tuned crossover (2.5 kHz) for seamless integration across the range
• Substantial 14 kg cabinet designed to reduce resonance and improve clarity
• Designed and built in Italy with a focus on musical realism

The Opera Prima V2 is a substantial two-way standmount speaker designed to deliver natural tone, expansive imaging, and impressive bass weight.

A 26 mm soft-dome tweeter and large 180 mm aluminum-cone midwoofer give the Prima V2 greater scale and dynamic presence than a typical bookshelf speaker. Its 90 dB sensitivity also makes it a practical match for a wide range of quality amplifiers.

Finished in Rosewood or Cement Grey with Opera’s signature eco-leather trim, the Prima V2 combines serious engineering with unmistakably Italian design.

“Full, full-bodied, solid, textural… a really convincing speaker.” - Home Theater HiFi

A Bigger Standmount Experience

The Prima V2 is larger than the Mezza V2 and uses a 180 mm midwoofer to deliver deeper bass, greater dynamic range, and a more room-filling presentation.

Vocals and instruments have convincing body, while the speaker’s strong low-frequency foundation gives rock, jazz, orchestral, and electronic music satisfying weight and impact.

Despite its size, the Prima V2 remains precise and open, with a spacious soundstage and strong separation between performers.

Fast, Controlled Driver Performance

The 26 mm soft-dome tweeter uses a double ferrite magnet and aluminum front plate for clear, composed high-frequency reproduction.

A 180 mm black-anodized aluminum midwoofer handles the midrange and bass. Its rigid, lightweight cone is designed for quick acceleration, controlled movement, and low distortion.

The drivers cross over at 2,500 Hz, creating a cohesive presentation with natural vocals, refined treble, and deep, well-defined bass.

Natural, Open and Engaging

"The tweeter and top end are sublime, among one of the best I’ve heard from a standmount speaker, and perfectly tuned by Opera." - The Speaker Shack

The Prima V2 balances tonal richness with a faster and more transparent presentation than listeners may expect from a traditional Italian loudspeaker.

Its sound is open and detailed without becoming harsh or analytical. Vocals remain natural and present, while bass has the speed and definition needed to keep complex music organized.

The result is a speaker that combines musical warmth with clarity, timing, and dynamic expression.

Built for Low Coloration

The Prima V2 uses a thick, carefully proportioned cabinet designed to reduce standing waves and unwanted resonance.

High-density internal damping helps absorb reflections inside the enclosure, while targeted reinforcement keeps the cabinet controlled without adding unnecessary mass.

The rear bass-reflex port is tuned to extend low-frequency performance while preserving speed and integration with the midrange.

Easy to Match with Quality Amplification

With 90 dB sensitivity and a 6-ohm nominal impedance, the Prima V2 can work well with a wide variety of solid-state and tube amplifiers.

Opera recommends between 25 and 100 watts per channel. Its 3.8-ohm minimum impedance means the best results will come from an amplifier with stable current delivery.

Properly matched, the Prima V2 sounds full and expressive at moderate volume while maintaining control as listening levels rise.

Premium Crossover Components

Opera designs its crossovers in-house using components selected for accurate driver integration and long-term consistency.

Mundorf capacitors, Vishay resistors, and custom inductors help preserve detail and maintain coherent timing between the tweeter and midwoofer.

The crossover is designed to make the two drivers behave as a unified system rather than calling attention to separate parts of the frequency range.

Contemporary Italian Design

The Prima V2 combines a substantial cabinet with curved sides and a clean, furniture-inspired appearance.

The cabinet is offered in Rosewood or Cement Grey, with eco-leather wrapping the front, top, and rear panels. Magnetic grilles maintain the speaker’s clean profile when removed.
