SONUS FABER OLYMPICA NOVA II

Since 1983, Sonus faber has marked its history with milestones that have become points of reference in the high-end audio landscape, and the birth of the Olympica collection is one such pivotal moment. Six years after its original launch, the second generation of that vision takes shape in the Olympica Nova line, a thoroughly renewed interpretation of the 2013 project that preserves the brand’s core values. In this evolution, form and substance merge in perfect harmony, enhanced by advanced technologies already adopted in Sonus faber’s most prestigious models.

Olympica Nova II, the most compact floorstanding speaker in the collection, is a synthesis of craftsmanship, innovation, and elegance. Entirely handcrafted in Italy, it embodies the essence of Sonus faber’s Natural Sound philosophy, combining visual refinement with exceptional sonic performance. Its three-way configuration enables detailed and balanced sound reproduction, featuring custom-developed components to ensure tonal coherence and dynamic precision.

The lute-shaped cabinet is not merely an aesthetic choice—it plays a key acoustic role by reducing internal resonances and improving sound dispersion. The downward-facing reflex port ensures deep and controlled bass response, adapting easily to different room environments. Despite its compact size, this speaker delivers a wide and immersive soundstage with an impact that far exceeds its physical dimensions.

Every detail of the speaker showcases Sonus faber’s artisanal mastery: the front panel and sidewalls are made from hand-finished natural wood, encased in a solid die-cast aluminum frame that highlights the careful selection of materials and attention to detail. The rings surrounding the woofers are covered in fine Italian leather, meticulously applied by hand at the company’s headquarters in Vicenza—an expression of the seamless union between traditional craftsmanship and technical innovation. The overall silhouette, fluid and essential, reflects a design philosophy that emphasizes formal purity, in perfect harmony with its sonic mission: to deliver an authentic, immersive, and natural listening experience.
