SONUS FABER OLYMPICA NOVA I

Olympica Nova I represents a new frontier in sound and design, combining exceptional acoustic performance with a minimalist aesthetic. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these speakers deliver an immersive listening experience that places the listener at 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 a rich and immersive soundstage.

Designed as a two-way bass-reflex system, Olympica Nova I is the result of Sonus Faber’s artisanal mastery. The speaker’s front panel is made of hand-finished wood, mounted on a solid die-cast aluminum plate, while the leather rings surrounding the woofers are applied by hand at the Sonus Faber factory in Vicenza, Italy. These handcrafted details not only enrich the speaker’s appearance but also enhance its acoustics, ensuring a 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 range from 45 Hz to 35 kHz. With a recommended power handling between 35 and 250 watts, Olympica Nova I is compatible with a wide range of amplifiers, offering flexibility and seamless integration into any audio setup.

To ensure a truly refined audio experience, Olympica Nova I is equipped with a sophisticated crossover free from resonance, built with uncompromising components. Custom-designed Jantzen inductors and ClarityCap capacitors, developed specifically for Sonus Faber, ensure flawless signal processing and perfect frequency integration.

The cabinet is a work of art in itself, featuring an asymmetrical, lute-inspired design. It is constructed from eight layers of curved wood, internally reinforced for maximum rigidity. This design minimizes vibrations and eliminates unwanted resonances, ensuring that only pure sound reaches the listener. The speakers are designed for flexible placement, allowing users to reverse the pair for optimal configuration based on the listening environment.

Sonus Faber’s Stealth Ultraflex system further optimizes airflow, delivering rapid, vibration-free movement. Seamlessly integrated into the cabinet’s side walls, this system is crafted from extruded aluminum for both form and function.

With all these elements, Olympica Nova I offers a truly exceptional sound experience, blending superior audio quality with timeless design—an unmistakable hallmark of Sonus Faber. It is the ideal choice for those looking to enhance their home audio system with cutting-edge technology and refined craftsmanship.
