Mutual Core merges acoustic performance with sculptural form, offering a rare union of craftsmanship and sound. Each pair features a hand-built ceramic horn and a carefully crafted wooden enclosure designed to be both seen and heard.
Unlike any other speaker on the market, Mutual Core is built around a true ceramic architecture—both visually striking and acoustically purposeful. It is the only speaker system currently available that uses ceramic as a core acoustic material, making each pair exceptionally rare in both design and performance.
The horns are slip-cast in dense stoneware, then glazed or hand-carved to create a mineral surface that’s as tactile as it is functional. Ceramic’s natural damping properties allow the horn to remain inert—only the air inside moves—preserving clarity and detail across frequencies. The result is immersive, directional sound with remarkable presence and microtexture.
Ceramic horns are available in four finish options:
– Matte White / Hand Carved Exterior
– Matte White / White Crawl Glaze Exterior
– Matte Black / Hand Carved Exterior
– Matte Black / Black Crawl Glaze Exterior
Speaker cabinets are available in two wood finishes: Oak or Walnut.
Every detail has been considered, down to the ceramic feet—crafted to match the horn’s finish—and the ceramic tag discreetly placed behind each horn, marking the origin and individuality of the piece.
The wooden enclosure complements the horn’s precision with warmth and depth, grounding the low end with clarity and weight. Inside, a passive crossover is hand-soldered using high-quality components to preserve signal purity.
Designed for interiors where sound is part of the visual language—spaces that value both sonic presence and material beauty.
