Homage Collection Excellence
The Sonus faber Serafino sits within the prestigious Homage collection, drawing inspiration from the legacy of Italian violin maker Santo Serafino. It is designed to merge traditional craftsmanship with modern acoustic innovation, delivering a speaker that is both visually elegant and sonically accomplished. The latest generation refines this approach further, combining upgraded components with a deep respect for heritage.
A Balance of Art and Performance
Serafino is built to recreate the emotion of live music within the home. Its presentation is expansive yet controlled, offering a sense of realism that feels natural and engaging. The speaker’s design philosophy centres on achieving both beauty and sonic excellence, ensuring that it performs with precision while maintaining a rich, expressive character.
Violin-Inspired Cabinet Design
The cabinet takes its cues directly from the shape of a violin, with flowing curves that enhance both aesthetics and acoustic performance. This lute-shaped structure reduces internal resonances by avoiding parallel surfaces, helping to preserve clarity and tonal balance. The result is a sound that feels open and uncoloured, supported by a design that is as sculptural as it is functional.
Handcrafted Italian Construction
Each Serafino loudspeaker is meticulously handcrafted in Vicenza, Italy, using nine layers of carefully selected wood. These layers are matched by grain and finished with multiple coats of lacquer, creating a surface that is both durable and visually striking. Combined with leather detailing and aluminium elements, the construction reflects a commitment to traditional materials and refined craftsmanship.
Advanced Intono Technology
A defining feature of the latest generation is the introduction of Intono technology. This internal structure reduces acoustic pressure within specific frequency ranges, allowing the midrange to perform with greater clarity and minimal distortion. The result is a more natural and transparent reproduction of vocals and instruments, enhancing the overall listening experience.
Refined Driver System
The Serafino incorporates newly developed drivers, including dual woofers, a dedicated midrange unit and a high-performance tweeter. Enhancements to the woofer’s voice coil and suspension improve air movement and bass extension, while powerful magnets in the midrange driver ensure fast, precise control. This combination delivers a balanced and detailed sound across the entire frequency range.
Phase Coherent Engineering
A carefully engineered phase coherent crossover ensures seamless integration between the drive units. High-quality components and meticulous hand assembly contribute to a coherent and three-dimensional soundstage. Additional innovations, such as the phase plug, help guide sound waves more effectively, reducing turbulence and improving overall clarity both on and off axis.
Powerful and Controlled Performance
Technically, the Serafino is a 3.5-way system with a frequency response extending from 30 Hz to 35,000 Hz and a sensitivity of 90 dB. It combines a sealed midrange chamber with vented woofers using the Stealth Ultraflex system, delivering deep, controlled bass alongside a refined mid and high-frequency response. The result is a loudspeaker that offers both authority and precision, suitable for demanding high-fidelity systems.
