1. The Grand Design of the Sonus Faber Sonetto V G2
The Sonus Faber Sonetto V G2 stands as a testament to the pursuit of sonic perfection. As a mid-to-large scale floorstander in the second-generation Sonetto series, it introduces a level of craftsmanship and technical depth rarely seen in its class. Every curve of the lute-shaped cabinet is meticulously finished in Vicenza, Italy, ensuring that the speaker is as much a piece of fine furniture as it is a high-performance audio instrument.
2. Revolutionary Internal Cork Chamber Technology
What truly separates the Sonus Faber Sonetto V G2 from its competitors is the integration of the Internal Cork Chamber. Borrowed directly from the $750,000 Suprema flagship, this organic material is used to house the midrange driver.
Unlike traditional synthetic damping, cork’s complex cellular structure naturally breaks up standing waves. This revolutionary approach allows the Sonus Faber Sonetto V G2 to reproduce vocals and instruments with a startling lack of coloration, providing a transparent window into your music.
3. Flagship Driver Configuration and Performance
The Sonus Faber Sonetto V G2 utilizes a sophisticated 3-way design to ensure total frequency authority.
The DAD™ Tweeter
The 1.1″ Damped Apex Dome (DAD™) tweeter captures ultra-fine micro-details. In the Sonus Faber Sonetto V G2, this results in an airy, spacious high-end that never feels harsh or fatiguing.
The Camelia Midrange
Inspired by the geometry of the Camelia flower, this unique 6.5″ driver avoids the mechanical resonances of traditional circular cones. It provides a lightning-fast response that is critical for the “Voice of Sonus Faber.”
Dual High-Excursion Woofers
To provide a foundation of deep, authoritative bass, the Sonus Faber Sonetto V G2 features two 6.5-inch aluminum sandwich woofers. These drivers move air with precision, allowing for a visceral low-end response that you can feel as much as hear.
4. The Iconic Voice of Sonus Faber
The “Voice of Sonus Faber” is a signature tonal balance that emphasizes natural warmth and lifelike presence. The Sonus Faber Sonetto V G2 achieves this through a Phase Coherent Crossover. By aligning the timing of all four drivers, the speaker creates a holographic soundstage where every performer is perfectly placed in three-dimensional space.

6. Why Choose the Sonetto V G2 for Large Rooms?
The Sonus Faber Sonetto V G2 is the ultimate choice for listeners with medium-to-large listening spaces.

The new concrete base further ensures that even at high volumes, the cabinet remains perfectly stable, delivering tight and articulate bass.
7. Setup and System Matching
To get the most out of your Sonus Faber Sonetto V G2, we recommend:
- Power: An amplifier with high current delivery to handle the 4-ohm load.
- Placement: At least 50cm from the rear wall to allow the down-firing port to breathe.
- Burn-in: Expect the drivers to fully “open up” after approximately 50-100 hours of play.
