About Sonus faber
As Artisans of Sound, we continuously strive to honor and elevate the authentic traditions of Italian craftsmanship. We believe music is a multi-sensory experience with an incredible power to enrich people’s lives. We have built our legacy by crafting speakers as musical instruments, adhering to the highest standards of luxury, design, and technology. Using only the finest wood and raw materials, Sonus faber’s handmade audio equipment are unique works of art meant to immerse the listener in the dynamic depths of sound.
Natural Sound is the signature voice of Sonus faber. Simply put, Natural Sound is the authentic audio achieved through the use of natural materials, the final tuning of each individual piece by ear, and our unique design philosophy. Investing a Human Touch in every piece is core to our identity. Skilled technicians employ simple tools to craft each unique piece by hand, following centuries-old techniques and processes. The Human Touch ensures that our speakers not only replicate or amplify great works of art, but they become ones themselves. Research is the mind that guides us. An expertise in technology and a rich knowledge of tradition allows us to maintain our identity while constantly innovating. We understand that having roots is a privilege and that nostalgia should inspire advancement and innovation.
Sonus faber continues to embrace its roots while maintaining a timeless legacy through cutting-edge ingenuity. Over the past several years, we have continued to grow our talent even as industries worldwide have had to downsize. Under the leadership and guidance of skilled veteran technicians and inventors, we have brought in a new generation of artisans and woodworkers. Additionally, our Research and Development team continues to infuse fresh perspectives into our designs. With a blend of valuable experience and new energy, we are excited to see what the next decade will bring.

Stradivari
An iconic Legacy redesigned.
Designed in honor of Antonio Stradivari, the second generation of Stradivari is steeped in tradition – yet reinvented with modern innovation and elegance. The violins of Italian luthier Antonio Stradivari are universally celebrated as some of the finest ever crafted. Stradivari’s commitment to precision, artistry, and innovation continue to be reflected in this new generation of the Stradivari loudspeaker. Released twenty years after the original design to the HiFi world by storm, the evolution of Stradivari coincides with Sonus faber’s 40th anniversary, emphasizing our commitment to both honoring our roots and staying on the forefront of acoustical engineering.
Stradivari takes inspiration from the Italian Renaissance violin making tradition. In the eighteenth century, advancements in violin making challenged classical rules by enlarging the instrument’s shape to create a unique tone. Similarly, the reintroduction of the Stradivari speaker uses the latest advancement in audio technology to widen and enhance the soundstage. With cutting-edge engineering in low-frequency management, one of Stradivari’s most distinctive features is the ability to adjust the woofers to the size of the room, individually adapting pristine sound to every unique space.

Serafino
Masterfully built for an enduring Legacy.
A nod to Santo Serafino, the legendary Italian luthier. Serafino delivers world-class sound on any stage. In eighteenth century Venice, Santo Serafino masterfully built violins with matching beauty and sound. In keeping with his legacy, the second generation of the Sonus faber Serafino speaker marries artistry and sonic excellence. With upgraded drivers and a refined crossover, Serafino’s second generation recreates the magic of a live performance.
Crafted like a fine instrument, Serafino draws inspiration from the artisanship of master luthier Santo Serafino. Its rounded cabinet design mirrors the graceful curves of a violin, enhancing both its visual allure and acoustic purity by reducing internal resonances. Handcrafted in Sonus faber’s Vicenza, Italy factory, each Serafino loudspeaker seamlessly melds nine layers of natural wood, carefully paired according to grain, and culminates with nine meticulous lacquer coats. This meticulous process, rooted in Sonus faber’s tradition of wood craftsmanship, ensures each speaker embodies both quality and elegance.
