Introduction to the Sonus Faber Palladio PL-563 In-Wall

The Sonus Faber Palladio PL-563 In-Wall is a standout performer in the Level 5 Palladio collection. Designed to integrate seamlessly into your home’s architecture, this speaker brings the soul of the Sonetto and Olympica Nova collections directly into your walls.
For many, architectural audio means compromising on bass and warmth. However, the Sonus Faber Palladio PL-563 In-Wall breaks that mold. By utilizing a dual-driver layout, it provides the surface area and displacement necessary to fill large rooms with rich, emotive sound. Whether used as a dedicated center channel or a powerful front LCR, this speaker represents the revolutionary intersection of luxury and invisibility.

The “Voice of Sonus Faber” Acoustic Heritage

At the heart of the Sonus Faber Palladio PL-563 In-Wall is the iconic sound signature that has made the brand a legend in Hi-Fi.

Damped Apex Dome (DAD) Tweeter

The high frequencies are handled by a 29mm silk dome tweeter. Featuring the proprietary DAD technology, the Sonus Faber Palladio PL-563 In-Wall eliminates anti-phase behavior by damping the apex of the dome. This results in an airy, transparent high-end that remains silky smooth even at high volumes.

Natural Fiber Mid-Woofers

The dual mid-woofers are crafted from a custom blend of natural fibers and air-dried cellulose pulp. This specific material choice ensures the Sonus Faber Palladio PL-563 In-Wall reproduces midrange frequencies—particularly human vocals—with a lifelike warmth that is unmatched by synthetic alternatives.

Dual 6-Inch Woofer Configuration for Maximum Impact

The Sonus Faber Palladio PL-563 In-Wall utilizes two 165mm (6-inch) woofers in a 2-way design. This configuration is critical for high-performance home cinemas.
By doubling the driver count, the Sonus Faber Palladio PL-563 In-Wall offers:
  • Increased Dynamic Range: Effortlessly handles intense movie action sequences.
  • Greater Efficiency: Produces higher sound pressure levels (SPL) with less amplifier strain.
  • Improved Mid-Bass Punch: Delivers a more tactile experience for music and film soundtracks.

Italian Craftsmanship: Leather and Stealth Aesthetics

Sonus Faber speakers are often called “musical instruments,” and the Sonus Faber Palladio PL-563 In-Wall is no exception.
  • Signature Leather Baffle: The front baffle is hand-finished in fine black leather, a design element taken directly from Sonus Faber’s flagship floorstanders.
  • Magnetic Trimless Grille: The speaker features a metal grille that attaches via magnets. It is ultra-slim and sits nearly flush against the wall.
  • Paintable Finish: You can customize the Sonus Faber Palladio PL-563 In-Wall to match your interior by painting the grille, ensuring total visual harmony.
