SONUS FABER OLYMPICA NOVA I

Second-hand. In excellent conditions. No visible signs of wear. Includes dedicated stands and spikes; original packaging not included.

The Olympica Nova I represents a new frontier in sound and design, combining exceptional acoustic performance with minimalist aesthetics. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these speakers offer an immersive listening experience that transports the listener directly into the heart of the music, as if attending a private concert. Whether placed on a bookshelf or mounted on the optional dedicated stands, they fill the room with an extraordinary, immersive soundstage.

Designed as a two-way bass-reflex system, the Olympica Nova I is the result of Sonus Faber’s artisanal mastery. The speaker’s front panel is made of finely hand-finished wood, mounted on a sturdy die-cast aluminum plate, while the leather rings surrounding the woofers are applied by hand at the Sonus Faber factory in Vicenza, Italy. These details not only enhance aesthetics but also improve acoustics, ensuring pure and dynamic sound.

The speakers feature a nominal impedance of 4 ohms, a sensitivity of 87 dB SPL (2.83V/1m), and a frequency response ranging from 45 Hz to 35 kHz. With a recommended amplifier power between 35 and 250 watts, the Olympica Nova I suits a wide range of amplifiers, offering flexibility and adaptability to any audio setup.

To ensure a truly refined audio experience, the Olympica Nova I employs a sophisticated, resonance-free crossover built with uncompromising components. Jantzen inductors and ClarityCap capacitors, custom-designed for Sonus Faber, guarantee flawless signal processing and perfect integration between frequencies.

The speaker cabinet is a true work of art, featuring an asymmetrical and rigid shape inspired by the design of a lute. It consists of eight layers of bent wood, internally reinforced to ensure superior rigidity. This design minimizes vibrations and eliminates unwanted resonances, ensuring only pure sound reaches the listener. The speakers allow flexible placement, enabling users to swap the pair to choose the optimal configuration for their listening environment.

Sonus Faber’s Stealth Ultraflex System further optimizes airflow, ensuring fast, vibration-free movement. This system is organically integrated into the cabinet walls and made of extruded aluminum.

With all these elements combined, the Olympica Nova I delivers an extraordinary sonic experience, guaranteeing superior audio quality and timeless design typical of Sonus Faber. It is the perfect choice for those who want to enhance their home audio system with top-tier technology and refined design.
