Sonus faber Olympica Nova I
Bookshelf Speakers

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.

WOOD

Just like the cabinet sides, the front baffle and the top are made in the walnut or wengè hand-finished natural wood, set in a solid die-cast aluminum plate. Our designers wished to pay homage to the most representative material of Sonus faber, making it even more of a standard-bearer.

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.

NATURAL LEATHER

The natural leather embellishes the Voice of Sonus faber, the brand’s iconic configuration of tweeter and midwoofer. Genuine Italian leather that, as per our brand’s tradition, is applied by hand in the production department in Vicenza.
