SONUS FABER SERAFINO 2G HOMAGE

The Serafino G2 embodies the evolution of the Sonus Faber tradition, masterfully blending refined craftsmanship with cutting-edge technological solutions. Inspired by the legacy of Santo Serafino, the renowned 18th-century Venetian luthier, this speaker echoes the graceful shape of a violin, not only to evoke classical elegance but also to enhance acoustics through a natural reduction of internal resonances. The cabinet, handcrafted at the Vicenza facility, is made from nine layers of carefully selected natural wood, matched for their grain patterns, and finished with nine coats of lacquer, showcasing the pinnacle of Italian artisanal tradition.

Despite its relatively compact size compared to other models in its class, the Serafino G2 is designed to encapsulate the emotional intensity of a live performance, making every listening session a profound and immersive experience. Inside, the innovative Intono structure reduces acoustic pressure within a specific frequency range, eliminating distortion in the midrange and ensuring a neutral, transparent, and natural sound reproduction. The new midrange drivers, equipped with more powerful magnets, provide fast and controlled response, while the woofers—enhanced with an updated voice coil and new spider material—deliver deeper, more extended, and fuller bass.

Every component of the speaker is engineered to produce clean and detailed sound. The system is mass-loaded to correct unwanted resonances, while the phase-coherent crossover, built with hand-soldered capacitors and high-quality Jantzen inductors, helps create a three-dimensional, coherent, and immersive soundstage throughout the listening environment. The damping ring, developed through advanced simulations, refines the drivers’ acoustic output by minimizing turbulence and directing sound waves more coherently, thus improving frequency response linearity and clarity even off-axis.

With the Serafino G2, Sonus Faber signs a speaker that not only sensitively interprets the past but also projects it into the future through excellence in sound and design.
