SONIC EXCELLENCE IN A COMPACT DESIGN

Olympica Nova II is designed to deliver impactful, room-filling sound from a remarkably compact floorstanding form factor. Its carefully engineered three-way architecture combines speed, transparency, and authority to create a listening experience that feels much larger than its physical size suggests.

Whether reproducing intimate acoustic recordings or large-scale orchestral performances, Olympica Nova II maintains exceptional coherence and realism, allowing every detail to emerge naturally within a spacious and immersive soundstage.

DESIGN

Olympica Nova II preserves the distinctive identity of the Olympica collection through its elegant asymmetrical lute-shaped cabinet. This unique enclosure geometry minimizes internal standing waves while promoting smoother sound dispersion throughout the listening environment.

Hand-finished wood surfaces, luxurious Italian leather accents, and precision-machined aluminum components combine to create a loudspeaker that is as visually stunning as it is acoustically accomplished.

STRUCTURAL RIGIDITY

The cabinet utilizes multiple layers of curved wood construction to maximize rigidity while minimizing unwanted resonance. Internal structural reinforcements further strengthen the enclosure and provide a stable foundation for the transducers.

This advanced cabinet architecture allows the drivers to perform with exceptional precision, preserving clarity, imaging, and tonal accuracy throughout the frequency range.

DAD™ TWEETER

Olympica Nova II features Sonus faber’s acclaimed H28 XTR3 tweeter with High Definition DAD™ (Damped Apex Dome) technology. This innovative design combines the natural timbre of a traditional soft dome with enhanced high-frequency extension and control.

The result is detailed, airy treble reproduction with exceptional smoothness, realism, and freedom from harshness or fatigue.

MIDRANGE DRIVER

The custom 150mm MW15 XTR2-04 midrange driver utilizes a CCAW voice coil and eddy current free motor structure to achieve outstanding speed, transparency, and tonal accuracy. Optimized specifically for vocal and instrumental reproduction, it delivers exceptional detail while preserving the natural warmth that defines Sonus faber’s sound signature.

Its seamless integration with the tweeter and woofer creates a coherent and lifelike presentation across the critical midrange frequencies.

WOOFER

A custom 180mm W18XTR2-04 woofer provides powerful and controlled low-frequency performance. Designed to complement the midrange driver perfectly, it delivers impressive bass extension, dynamic impact, and articulation without sacrificing speed or musicality.

This carefully tuned low-frequency system allows Olympica Nova II to produce authoritative bass while maintaining excellent integration throughout the entire frequency spectrum.

STEALTH ULTRAFLEX™

The proprietary Stealth Ultraflex™ para-aperiodic venting system improves airflow efficiency while reducing turbulence and unwanted resonances. This innovative approach enhances bass extension and control while preserving the speed and accuracy required for high-performance music reproduction.

The result is deeper, cleaner bass performance with excellent transient response and overall system balance.
