The lute shape of the speakers, an iconic design feature of Sonus faber, optimises sound dispersion for an immersive listening experience, whilst the high-quality wood cabinet has been further enhanced with a new concrete base, providing superior stability and better vibration management for impeccable sound performance.
The woofer features a paper pulp sandwich cone for precise and dynamic bass response, paired with an organic basket for optimal air flow. Motors include aluminium demodulation rings to improve linearity.
The tweeter in the Sonetto G2 collection features state-of-the-art Silk Dome DAD (Damped Apex Dome) technology. With a response extending beyond 30kHz thanks to the incorporation of a copper cup, the tweeter has been created to reproduce the finest nuances in the audio spectrum, ensuring clarity and detail in sound reproduction.
Sonetto G2 collection’s phase coherent crossover technology ensures precise synchronisation of the drivers’ phase rotations, creating maximum parallelism. This meticulous alignment results in a soundstage that is defined and palpable, allowing listeners to experience music with a heightened sense of realism and immersion.
Sonetto VIII and Sonetto V feature a hybrid IFF and paracross topology crossover network, which was first introduced with the Sonus faber Lumina V. Included in the Sonetto I and II models, the Intono construction solution prevents spurious frequencies and distortions inside the vent. This technology aims to achieve quieter resonances for improved sound performance.
The Sonetto G2 collection also features a new optimised reflex duct design in each model
- Sonetto I and II models utilise a front reflex duct
- Sonetto III utilises rear and down-firing reflex ducts
- Sonetto V and VIII models feature down-firing reflex ducts
- Sonetto Center utilises a rear reflex duct
- The Sonetto Wall model boasts a sealed box design, optimising transient response and reactivity. By minimising air leaks and internal resonances, the sealed enclosure enables quicker transients, enhancing the speaker’s ability to faithfully reproduce the dynamic nuances of music with exceptional accuracy and immediacy, says the maker.
