Unveiled, for the first time, during this year's Munich High End Show, the Minima Amator II is a compact 2-way loudspeaker that belongs to Sonus Faber's Heritage collection, along with the Electa Amator III, and is the modern version of the original Minima Amator first introduced in 1992.
Some products are not meant to be tied to a singular historical moment, Sonus Faber states, and both Electa Amator III and Minima Amator II were born with this concept in mind, giving life to the Heritage collection. The new loudspeaker pays homage to its past through classic design, while strongly breaking through the barrier of time from an electroacoustics point of view, being a completely new design based on contemporary technologies developed by the Italian manufacturer. The natural evolution of today’s Sonus Faber, is enclosed in this new creation, the company says, as Minima Amator II is the restatement of a fundamental product first introduced in 1992, when they were establishing key principles that would go on to guide future products; an accurate design process and high-quality natural materials, combined to obtain a sound reproduction as natural as possible.
Inspired by 36 years of worldwide experience in the high-end audio sector, Minima Amator II merges the brand’s famous style with innovative technology, featuring a compact, solid walnut wood cabinet and a front baffle that shows the iconic shape of the Voice of Sonus Faber, covered in leather. The rear panel, also covered in leather, houses the bass reflex and the brass binding posts.
Minima Amator II is a 2-way bookshelf system, based on a 28 mm silk dome tweeter, implemented with the DAD (Damped Apex Dome) technology and a 6-inch mid-woofer, developed in the Vicenza-based laboratory, featuring the well-known cellulose pulp and natural fibers cone on a die-cast aluminum basket. The two drivers are complemented by a “Paracross topology” design crossover.
The Minima Amator II was intended to be a bookshelf speaker but is designed to be paired with the Carrara Stand or with the Unicum stand.
