The Story of A Brand
Actions reflect who we are and what we love. This is also true for us at Sonus faber and for this reason, day by day we choose to remain true to ourselves and to our proud tradition, as our actions reflect our true passion.
Since 1983 our creations have embodied the philosophy and values of the brand. Now, more than ever, we are aware of what we are and what we want to be. Our projects and our designs are the result of an evolution matured over time, which feeds on the lessons derived from our experience in the High-End audio sector.
In a constant pursuit of advancement, we chose to reinvent the collection that has always embodied the company’s stylistic manifesto, and which has contributed to building the identity and perception of the brand internationally. This is how the second edition of the line was born: Olympica Nova, a true tribute to its predecessor and to our artisanal craftsmanship that adds a new chapter to the ‘Made in Italy’ Sonus faber history.
Olympica Nova is where experience meets elegance. It is the distillation of our identity: Olympica Nova is Sonus faber.
OVERVIEW
LIVING TECHNOLOGY
Olympica Nova embraces all of the authentic and timeless values that inspired Sonus faber in creating the original Olympica line. Our R&D department selected the fundamental aesthetic and functional elements and revolutionized them, incorporating new technological advancements. The result is a new collection that merges tradition and innovation, featuring advanced solutions that already enhance our prestigious creations. The goal remains the same: natural acoustic reproduction with no compromise.
ORGANIC EVOLUTION
We treasured the 6 years since the release of the Olympica collection. We maintained the elements which made it unique and recognizable worldwide and we merged them with inspirations from the Homage Tradition collection. Thanks to this process of selection and evolution, Olympica Nova has truly manifested the essence of our brand, the perfect musical instrument for living the Sonus faber Italian sound.
