Sonus faber - Sonetto I G2 - Bookshelf Speaker

Sonetto I G2 is the most compact bookshelf speaker in the Sonetto G2 collection, delivering an immersive and refined listening experience that far exceeds its size. Designed for effortless placement and exceptional versatility, it brings Sonus faber’s signature Natural Sound into smaller listening spaces without compromise.

Whether positioned on a bookshelf, desktop, or paired with its dedicated stand, Sonetto I G2 creates a remarkably expansive soundstage filled with detail, warmth, and musical realism. Its optimized front-firing reflex system allows flexible placement while maintaining outstanding bass performance and tonal balance.

Handcrafted in Italy, Sonetto I G2 combines elegant design, innovative acoustic engineering, and premium materials to deliver an authentic high-fidelity experience.

DESIGN

The iconic lute-shaped cabinet has been refined for the Sonetto G2 generation, improving internal resonance control while preserving the elegant silhouette that has become synonymous with Sonus faber.

Available in Walnut, Wenge, and Black finishes, Sonetto I G2 combines wood, leather, concrete, and aluminum into a design that complements both modern and traditional interiors while delivering exceptional acoustic performance.

THE VOICE OF SONUS FABER

At the heart of Sonetto I G2 is Sonus faber’s signature Natural Sound philosophy. A newly developed midwoofer featuring the innovative flower-patterned surround works in harmony with the optimized reflex system to produce rich tonal balance, exceptional clarity, and engaging musicality.

Inspired by forms found in nature, the driver technology delivers a listening experience that feels organic, lifelike, and emotionally involving.

D.A.D.™ ARROW POINT TWEETER

The 1.1-inch D.A.D.™ (Damped Apex Dome) Arrow Point tweeter extends high-frequency performance while maintaining exceptional smoothness and detail. A copper shorting ring further improves linearity and reduces distortion for a more natural and transparent presentation.

The result is greater air, detail, and realism without fatigue, preserving the delicate nuances of every recording.

FLOWER-PATTERNED SURROUND

The newly developed floral-patterned surround surrounding the 5-inch midwoofer breaks up traditional circular resonance modes, reducing interference and improving sound dispersion throughout the listening space.

This innovative design increases linearity, enhances driver control, and contributes to the remarkably natural character of the Sonetto I G2.

INTONO TECHNOLOGY

Sonus faber’s proprietary Intono technology reduces unwanted frequencies and internal cabinet distortions through a carefully engineered acoustic structure positioned between the reflex duct and internal chamber.

The result is a quieter cabinet, lower coloration, and improved overall transparency across the frequency spectrum.

OPTIMIZED REFLEX SYSTEM

The redesigned front-firing reflex duct improves placement flexibility and room integration. Whether positioned near walls, in corners, or in open spaces, Sonetto I G2 maintains excellent airflow control and consistent bass performance.

Combined with the new concrete base architecture, the reflex system provides outstanding versatility without sacrificing sound quality.

OPEN PORE WOOD FINISH

The open-pore wood finish highlights the natural beauty and texture of the wood grain while creating a tactile, handcrafted appearance. This finish reflects Sonus faber’s commitment to traditional Italian craftsmanship and timeless design.

SONETTO STANDS

The Sonetto Stand is specifically designed for Sonetto I and Sonetto II bookshelf speakers. Constructed from aluminum and supported by a substantial concrete base, it enhances stability, vibration control, and overall acoustic performance.

The stand seamlessly complements the visual design and acoustic philosophy of the Sonetto collection while positioning the speaker at the optimal listening height.

Stands and speakers are sold separately.
