Overview
The most ambitious project of Sonus faber to date, Suprema reflects the pinnacle of audio engineering. Building on a legacy of artisanal design and a relentless pursuit of perfection, Suprema honors the 40th anniversary of a brand dedicated to pushing the boundaries of audio excellence.
EXTENDING BEYOND CONVENTIONAL LIMITS
Suprema consists of a sophisticated four column system— two main columns and two subwoofers, and an external electronic crossover. This new design was pioneered by Sonus faber’s engineering team to enhance acoustic performance to new levels of excellence.
LEGACY REDESIGNED
The two main columns of Suprema take the signature Sonus faber lute shape, originally introduced with Guarneri in 1993.
This iconic design represents the optimal solution for enhancing a virtual soundstage while blending seamlessly into the background. The two subwoofers, in contrast, take on Stradivari’s elliptical shape, which is most suitable for the reproduction of low frequencies.
AN INNOVATIVE COMBINATION OF DRIVERS
Each of the two main columns of Suprema is a 4.5 ways system, featuring 2 back-firing speakers in addition to 8 front-firing speakers— 4 dual drive woofers, 1 mid-woofer, 1 Camelia midrange, 1 mid-tweeter, 1 super tweeter. The back-firing speakers improve staging and dispersion while the combination of front speakers allows for unparalleled audio reproduction at every level of frequency.
VOICE OF SONUS FABER, EVOLVED
In developing Suprema, careful attention was paid to maintaining and enhancing the signature Natural Sound of Sonus faber. The configuration of the tweeters and midranges evolves into three brand new elements: one midrange with a cellulose pulp diaphragm, a new mid-tweeter with a treated silk dome, and a new super tweeter with a treated silk dome.
