What's unique about the brand
What reviewers are saying
We read all the reviews. Here's what reviewers feel most strongly about:
- They employ a spherical enclosure design, diverging from the typical box shape to minimize internal standing waves and external baffle diffraction.
- The brand utilizes a cylindrical diaphragm tweeter (CDT) to project high frequencies in a wide, uniform 180-degree arc, creating a larger and more open soundstage compared to conventional dome tweeters.
- Gallo designs speakers with a single, full-range driver to eliminate the need for a crossover network, thereby improving transparency and coherence.
- The brand has developed a proprietary S2 damping technology, using a unique enclosure filling material to mimic a larger cabinet volume and enhance bass response in compact speakers.
Our favorite reviewer quotes:
- "The A'Diva Ti has remarkable transparency—you can hear that in the way it reproduces the sound of drums and percussion instruments. Treble air and sparkle are first rate, and the A'Diva Ti reproduces the tactile qualities of the transient attack and the impact of drums' resonant bloom in precisely the right proportions, so you don't just hear drums—you feel them." (https://www.soundandvision.com/compactspeakers/406gallo)
- "The new wave-launch pattern approximates a mini line source from 1kHz up with projection into the room reminiscent of a horn but with true 180° horizontal dispersion top to bottom." (https://6moons.com/audioreviews/gallo14/1.html)
- "As with the 3.5s, the speed, clarity and accuracy of timbre were excellent, certainly for any speaker near their respective price points. Probably due to the lack of a normal cabinet, the speed and agility of the Strada 2s compete with electrostatic speakers with none of their inherent drawbacks." (https://hometheaterhifi.com/reviews/speaker/subwoofers/gallo-strada-2-loudspeakers-and-tr-3d-subwoofers)
- "The Anthony Gallo Acoustics' Micro SE and A'Diva SE are, pound for pound, the best sounding miniature speakers I've heard to date. They redefine the performance standard for very small speakers." (https://www.cnet.com/tech/home-entertainment/gallo-micro-se-how-can-a-speaker-this-small-sound-this-good)
- "One of the benefits of not having a separate tweeter means that no internal crossover is needed. This means that the speakers can react blisteringly fast to the changes in sound and tempo, and it shows." (https://thesilverhedgehog.com/gallo-acoustics-adiva-review)

Lineup comparison
We think it's helpful to understand how their products compare. To learn more about each, scroll to the section above to click through to individual product pages.
Micro
- Positioning: A compact high-end small speaker designed for versatile home audio.
- Description: Features a 4-inch all-metal spherical enclosure that minimizes internal resonance and diffraction for clear imaging. Compared to the higher-powered models, it offers a unique compact form factor with flexible mounting options while sacrificing the extended frequency range seen in later series.
A'Diva SE
- Positioning: A high-performance compact speaker focused on peak audio delivery for music and movies.
- Description: Uses a proprietary ultra-wide dispersion flat-diaphragm transducer and Optimised Pulse Technology to reduce distortion and extend frequency response. In contrast to the Micro, it provides enhanced power handling and spatial characteristics without needing extra low-end support, and stands apart from design-centric options like the Droplet variants.
Droplet
- Positioning: A design-focused variant that melds decorative aesthetics with quality hi-fi sound.
- Description: Builds on the core technologies of the Micro and A'Diva families while offering a pendant-style form factor suited to open spaces and architectural integration. Compared to the compact Micro and the performance-enhanced A'Diva SE, it delivers balanced acoustics with an emphasis on visual appeal and installation flexibility.
Strada 2
- Positioning: A reference loudspeaker engineered for audiophile audiovisual performance.
- Description: Incorporates an Optimised Pulse Technology system along with a re-engineered cylindrical diaphragm tweeter to achieve textbook dispersion and an expansive soundstage. Compared to the smaller and more design-focused models, it offers superior power handling and clarity for larger rooms.
TR-3D
- Positioning: A powerful subwoofer designed to complement the speaker lineup with precise, adjustable bass.
- Description: Features a 10-inch long-throw driver powered by a 300 Watt Class-D amplifier and patented S2 bass loading technology for smooth low-frequency performance. Unlike the full-range speakers which focus on mid and high frequencies, it allows for fine tuning of bass response to adapt to various room sizes.
