PASSION. CRAFTSMANSHIP. ORIGINALITY.
Many decades of tradition
Though these have been our core values ever since N.C. Madsen decided to give up his job and dedicate his life to his true vocation: loudspeaker technology. He had decided all this decades earlier, in 1933, in a tiny little Danish village.
Prominent supplier
Vifa soon became a popular supplier to many well-known brands and maintained this position until today. Reproducing the best possible sound depends on the instrumentation, which is decided by the simultaneous, complex adjustment of several technical components. This knowledge and experience is passed down through generations of Vifa engineers. All this is complemented by the legendary, uncompromising commitment to quality.
High-end materials and appearance
However, premium sound also requires a high-end look. That's why Vifa introduced a uniquely new and exciting line of wireless, portable speakers in 2014. It's all based on the extraordinary and proudly undertaken heritage and expertise of Vifa's sound engineers. This is how we keep the commitment of our founders: we are constantly striving for an authentic sound.
MAIN FEATURES
Traditional Scandinavian design
Scandinavian design is evident in clean, natural lines, nobly simple and courageous use of materials. Opposites reinforce each other and form harmony. Both the materials and the colours exude a clean and mature elegance; the stable, carefully machined aluminum frame, the specially designed wool cover of the Kvadrat, the manufacturer's signature: the embossed logo and the embroidered surface. They subtly complement the appearance of the speakers of Vifa.
Premium materials
The vifa speakers are based on a one-piece and carefully machined aluminum frame cast with special material and technology. This gives vifa premium drives the stability they need. The collaboration with Kvadrat, one of Europe's leading textile companies, is an important element in the appearance, feel and even sound of Vifa speakers. The specially woven textile gives all five models a warm and homely touch without any sonic compromises. The overall effect is crowned by a plant-tanned genuine leather strap, contrasting with its exciting appearance.
True to life sound
The sound reproduction that is most similar to the original sound is the music itself, from which nothing is taken or added. Reproducing a true-to-life sound is like a band working together. It is necessary to combine almost artistically the finest components, such as our custom-developed drives and other components of our technology. However, only human talent, decades of experience, dedication to music, and an uncompromising attitude can create such a lifelike sound.
TECH DATA
Vifa Stockholm 2.0 wireless MultiRoom home speaker design
Three-way, eight-speaker stereo design with 6 digital amplifiers and 4 passive radiators.
Drivers
- Tweeter: 2x28mm vifa casting basket softdome with radiant neodymium magnet
- Mid: 2x80mm vifa casting basket aluminum radiant with neodymium magnet

Force balancing arrangement
A system based on Newton's third law (interaction) that ensures that the vibrations generated by loudspeakers are fully translated into sound and not into vibrations of the cabinet. This allows music to be played with greater efficiency and higher sound pressure levels, while also significantly lowering distortion.
Amplifier
The speaker units are powered by standalone Texas Instruments PurePath ™ digital amplifier modules connected directly to the speakers. (6 pcs.)
