The <strong>Isophon</strong> Cortina<br />
Whatever you ask from a perfect loudspeaker<br />
– the Cortina unites all these features.<br />
The streamline shape not only looks elegant<br />
and slim but also stands for acoustically<br />
ideal properties for music reproduction.<br />
The enclosure consists of several wooden<br />
