FEATURES
CROSSOVER
The crossover network implements Paracross Topology™, making the crossover less sensitive to radio-frequency interference, improving transient response and lowering noise floor. The filtering topology features new exclusive Clarity Cap capacitors, customized for Sonus faber.
WOOD
Just like the rest of the cabinet, the front baffle is made in the walnut or wengè hand-finished natural wood. Our designers wished to pay homage to the most representative material of Sonus faber, making it even more of a standard-bearer.
STRUCTURAL RIGIDITY
The entire structure of the acoustic enclosure has been redesigned: similar to the Homage Tradition and Reference Collections, the walls are made with eight layers of bended wood, providing the cabinet with extreme rigidity.
NATURAL LEATHER
The natural leather embellishes the tweeter and the pair of midwoofers. Genuine Italian leather that, as per our brand’s tradition, is applied by hand in the production department in Vicenza.
REFLEX PORT
The solid piece of extruded aluminum that complete the Stealth Ultraflex™ system, an extremely low-turbulence porting system, is inherited from Homage Tradition models. Favoring the profile of sea waves, the structure facilitates airflow through the duct while controlling its speed and reducing the distortion-causing turbulence.
MIDWOOFER
It shares its technical characteristics with the bigger siblings’ midrange. As a matter of fact, it is the same speaker but with two main differences.
The fabric hand coated dust-cap, which is implemented to maximize the diaphragm’s emitting surface and therefore allowing for deeper low frequencies extension while, at the same time, perfectly blending with the tweeter from the tonal balance standpoint. The additional winding of the voice-coil improves the driver’s excursion allowing for a much longer throw.
TWEETER
The 28 mm silk soft dome tweeter features the DAD™ technology (Damped Apex Dome™) that enhances the smoothness and extension in the high frequency by applying local dampening to the apex typically responsible for anti-phase behavior of soft dome diaphragms.
The DAD™ structure has been totally redesigned; a solid piece of aluminum die-cast includes both arch and ring on the dome to increase the strength and accuracy of the system.

ESSENCE OF A BRAND
Since 1983, many moments have marked the history of Sonus faber; the launch of the Olympica Collection 6 years ago is one of them. One of the first lines presented as a complete family of products, but above all, the very first one to feature original drivers, entirely designed in Sonus faber. Olympica Nova is the second generation of the iconic family of 2013, improved in its form and substance, imbued with the timeless values that inspired us in creating the original line. The result is a new Collection that embraces the most advanced technologies that already enhance our most prestigious creations.
