Sonus faber
Taking its name from Latin, with "Sonus" meaning sound and "Faber" meaning artisan or craftsman, Sonus faber is an Italian brand known for its high-end speakers. Founded in 1983 by Franco Serblin, the company has earned a reputation for combining exquisite craftsmanship, meticulous attention to detail, and outstanding sound quality in its products. Sonus faber speakers are renowned for their musicality, natural sound reproduction, and elegant design.
Handcrafted in the company's facilities in Arcugnano, a small town near Vicenza in Northern Italy. Skilled artisans carefully assemble each speaker using high-quality materials, including solid wood cabinets, leather accents, and advanced acoustic components. This meticulous attention to detail extends to every aspect of the manufacturing process, resulting in products that are both sonically and aesthetically exceptional.
One of the distinguishing features of Sonus faber speakers is their use of the "lute" shape cabinet design. Inspired by the shape of musical instruments such as violins and lutes, this unique design minimises unwanted resonances and diffractions, leading to a more accurate and lifelike sound reproduction.
The use of solid wood cabinets helps to enhance the warmth and richness of the sound output. Sonus faber products are highly regarded by audiophiles and music enthusiasts around the world with their speakers having received numerous accolades for their exceptional sound quality and design. Soundline is proud to represent Sonus faber in New Zealand and we’re excited to watch as the brand continues to innovate and push the boundaries of audio technology.
