Cabinet Design: No other manufacturer goes to such lengths to fuse Old World virtues with high technology. Thus, it is that an affordable speaker from Sonus faber still comprises no fewer than eight separate pieces of solid walnut, acting as sidewalls that allow for resonant tuning of the cabinet. What's that? Resonant tuning?! Aren't we supposed to eliminate all resonance? Perhaps in a perfect world, and with unlimited funds, this is a desirable goal. In the real world, the physical world, resonance of some sort must exist in things and the Sonus faber design approach acknowledges their existence and controls them in a way that benefits the music.

Benefits: Sonus faber produces hand-built speakers that combine the merits of Old World handcrafting with high technology to produce some of the most musical designs ever. Startling dynamics and bass performance are just two of the results of this approach. The discerning owner will have something of beauty that will bring lasting enjoyment for years to come.
