Sonetto VIII embodies the elegance of power, drawing inspiration from Italian poetry and brought to life by Sonus faber's cutting-edge technologies. This flagship model of the Sonetto G2 collection stands as a tribute to audio excellence, crafted with meticulous Italian artisanal care. It represents the most organic expression of the technical heritage of the Suprema system, encapsulated in a three-way floorstanding speaker that combines natural materials, nature-inspired design, and the philosophy of Natural Sound, the authentic "voice" of Sonus faber.
Its grandeur goes beyond aesthetics: Sonetto VIII delivers top-tier sound quality thanks to a sophisticated pairing of tweeter and midrange housed within a specially shaped cork chamber designed to optimize internal volume and maximize driver performance. This material, inherited from Suprema technology, plays a key role in enhancing midrange clarity and providing an organic, natural, and immersive sound.
The Camelia midrange, initially developed for Suprema, is distinguished by its membrane inspired by the camellia flower, featuring five petal-shaped cuts along its circumference. This innovative shape eliminates the typical resonances found in circular membranes, enhancing sound purity and transparency, maintained intact by the absence of any coating on the membrane itself.
Another fundamental aspect is the Phase Coherent philosophy applied in the crossover design, ensuring precise alignment of phase rotations between drivers, achieving maximum possible parallelism. This meticulous work results in a soundstage rich in detail, extremely defined and engaging, allowing enthusiasts to experience music with an intense and tangible sense of realism.
Sonetto VIII is not just a luxury speaker but a work of art that unites tradition, innovation, and passion, offering an uncompromising listening experience and a true tribute to sonic perfection.
