Sonus Faber recently announced the Maxima Amator, a two-way loudspeaker that successfully merges two drivers to achieve a unique emotion with the maximum representation of natural sound. The new floorstander pays homage to brand’s Italian roots.
The two-way concept, often considered the purest system achievable in regard to electroacoustics, has been a strong piece of brand identity for Sonus Faber products and the Maxima Amator aims to pay homage to this tradition and to music itself, leading the listener to its fullest enjoyment, offering immersion in its deepest essence, the company says.
The latest addition to the Heritage collection is completely made in Italy, with a solid walnut wood cabinet, which has been designed thanks to modern wood working methods that allowed Sonus Faber the ability to develop a reliable floor-standing cabinet and overcome the structural limits of the solid wood. Great care was taken to create the cabinet’s internal volumes definition – with the cabinet divided into three separate chambers designed to increase the rigidity of the structure, minimizing resonances and shielding the crossover, hosted in a dedicated chamber, visible from the back.
The loudspeaker features the same drivers as the Electa Amator III, the 28mm D.A.D. – Damped Apex Dome tweeter with neodymium magnet system and solid spruce wood acoustic labyrinth rear chamber, and the 180mm mid-woofer with air-dried membrane made of cellulose pulp and natural fibers, mounted on the Sonus Faber original design die-cast aluminum basket.
The Maxima Amator uses the IFF (Interactive Fusion Filtering) crossover design that foregoes the classical first order series iteration, with non-academic transfer functions based on the company's accelerated progressive slopes.
The Maxima Amator will be available through authorized Sonus Faber dealers, beginning December 2020, with suggested MSRP being $15,000 USD.
