The Italian luxury home audio company Sonus faber has announced its fourth-generation series of Concertino products: Concertino G4 loudspeaker.
According the company, its latest product is a celebration of the 30th Anniversary of the first Concertino introduction. As part of that celebration, Sonus Faber is releasing a limited run of 300 pairs of Concertino G4 “Maestro” special editions. These special editions Sonus faber stresses, feature a brass plaque with progressive numbering applied to the walnut side panel of the speaker.
Sonus faber points out that its new speaker utilizes materials such as cork—a material shared by the company’s Suprema and Sonetto speakers—as dampening fill in the speaker’s central chassis. This, the Italian audio company notes allows precise modeling; it limits internal resonances, and the cork is said to reduce the need for additional damping material inside the small cabinet to help significantly improve sound quality.
The Concertino G4 speaker’s side walls are crafted from solid walnut wood with ribbed surfaces for enhanced structural integrity and rigidity without internal bracing. The cork structure and front baffle are covered with recycled leather or a plant-based alternative produced by Ohoskin.
An aluminum ring enclosing the silk tweeter, a reflex duct output crafted from walnut wood, and high-performance binding posts with a brass nameplate will complete Sonus Faber’s use of sound-improving materials, while complementing the speaker’s industrial design.
