Italian poetry. Our sound, your home.
The flagship of the Sonetto Collection, the biggest speaker that evolves the line.
Overview
ITALIAN TRADITIONAL CULTURE
Sonus Faber always found its inspiration in the highest Italian culture. This time we entrusted the history of our Literature for representing the new Sonetto Collection.
The Sonetto (Sonnet) is the most ancient Italian Poetic structure. Originally it meant “Sound, Melody“and was traditionally used to accompany music performances. The first step in the Sonus Faber world brings the name of the foundations of Literature history in Italy and in the rest of the world.
DESIGN
Sonetto VIII is the most powerful 3-way speaker of the Sonetto collection with three 180mm woofers for the best reproduction of lower frequencies and high-end standards. We have designed a speaker that completely represents our roots. The entire collection is a true Sonus faber that features all the iconic elements of the brand: natural sound, natural materials, the Lute shape, the excellent finishes typical of Italian craftsmanship, and manufacturing done completely in our factory in Vicenza.
LEATHER TOP
The Sonus Faber Sonetto collection's floorstanding and bookshelf models inherit from the Olympica line the leather top, hand sewn, soft to the touch and embellished by the hot branded Sonus Faber Logo.
TWEETER, MIDRANGE & WOOFER
The combination of a silk dome tweeter with the DAD (Damped Apex Dome) technology and a midrange with a special natural fibre and a paper blend air dried diaphragm, defines our iconic 'Voice Of Sonus Faber'. This configuration that characterised the entire Sonus Faber catalogue, from the Reference to the Olympica collection, is available for the first time in this price range. These speakers have been designed from scratch specifically for this collection and the feature the die cast basket, done completely in Sonus Faber laboratories. For an optimal lowest frequencies reproduction, a special aluminium alloy diaphragm has been designed. It allows an ultra-fast, tight and yet deep bass performance.
LUTE SHAPED
The lute shape that characterises most of the Sonus Faber models, offers a solution that ensures no internal parallel surfaces and a perfect control over internal resonances.
REFLEX PORT
The Senetto collection's reflex ports are all sited on the base of the speakers, except for the centre channels, to keep the design as clean as possible and at the same time make in-room placement very forgiving.
STRUCTURAL RIGIDITY
Consistent with the most prestigious Sonus Faber models, aluminium has been chosen for the column feet, extruded or milled from solid billets, to provide an extreme rigidity.

The loudspeakers do not require any special maintenance except for periodic general cleaning. To preserve the finish of the loudspeakers, protect them with the supplied fabric covers, especially if they are not used for a prolonged period of time. Remember to not use cleaning products, furniture waxes, cleaning liquids or alcohol that could stain or damage the wood or the speakers. Do not use rough cloths. To clean the wooden part of the cabinet and the leather parts, use a soft cloth (such as a microfiber) just moistened at the most, taking care not to dampen the drivers. To clean and prevent the gaskets of the drivers from the hardening, you may use a silicon-based product and carefully apply it by using a soft cloth. Wood is a natural and always alive material, therefore sensitive to external agents. Avoid positioning the loudspeakers near heat sources or near windows, especially during the summer months. Do not leave the speakers exposed to direct sunlight. To remove the dust from the cabinet, the front panels and/or the speakers, we recommend using a soft brush paying much attention not to damage the delicate membranes of the speakers.
The choice of amplification always depends on personal tastes. Also the environment, where the loudspeakers are installed, is an important variable to consider. There is not one perfect amplifier for every single speaker. Kindly contact our specialists at Dubai Audio with your requirements and we will be happy to assist you.
All loudspeakers have been designed and developed to guarantee an ideal balance between volumes and sound, consequently each speaker is made on the basis of a unique electroacoustic project exclusively dedicated to the specific model. The inclined bases of the speakers are an integral part of the electroacoustic design as they provide the right inclination of the speakers to ensure an optimal reproduction. For this reason, we recommend that you do not change the inclination. Furthermore, it is not possible to upgrade the loudspeaker components as it would modify their electroacoustic design. By changing a driver, the whole crossover should be re-designed that is to say developing a new speaker.
In case you need to replace the front grills of your loudspeakers or just the elastic strings, please contact our team at the Dubai Audio store. For quick reference, here's the contact details: Email: support@dubaiaudio.com Phone: +97143431441
