Flagship of the Sonetto G2 “collection” and consequently the maximum expression of Sonus Faber 's Sonetto concept, the Sonetto VIII G2 is an imposing and highly refined column that masterfully reflects Sonus Faber 's commitment to Italian craftsmanship and audio innovation.
It uses a 3-way/4-speaker bass-reflex configuration, embodied in a 28 mm diameter silk dome tweeter with effective DAD (“Damped Apex Dome”) technology, a 165 mm Camelia midrange speaker and two woofers. with 203 mm paper pulp sandwich structure cone. Of the last three transducers, we highlight that their peripheral suspension exhibits a unique floral pattern that not only adds visual elegance, but also contributes to reducing interference and increasing the range of linearity.
As for the Camelia, it is imported directly from the fabulous Suprema system and among its particularities we should point out the hermetic cork enclosure that houses it and the presence of an aluminum dispersion modifier with the purpose of smoothing the frequency response curve and clarity global both on the axis of symmetry and outside it.
This refined set of speakers is managed by a sophisticated crossover filter based on Sonus Faber 's exclusive IFF and Paracross Topology hybrid circuitry, while in the acoustic field we must highlight the classic lute-shaped profile built with wood panels. high quality from Sonus Faber , an elegant concrete base and a new round cover that protects the connection terminals (designed specifically for bi-wiring).
