Completing

Sonetto is the Italian word for sonnet, a fourteen-line poem from the Middle Ages that later became a very popular form of poetry. The music the Sonetto makes is also pure poetry. The Sonus Faber Sonetto I is a loudspeaker made to make the best recordings shine. It’s a very detailed loudspeaker that sounds coherent across the entire line. Fewer shots fall through the basket inexorably like a weak link in the set. This speaker should be surrounded by the best you have in the house. Only then will he reveal all his qualities!

Conclusion

Sonus Faber did a great job with the Sonetto I. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder of course, but we find this Sonetto I a very nice speaker. He radiates class and fits into any interior. The craftsmanship with which this speaker is made is beyond dispute. And by implementing quality materials, from the more expensive series, the reproduction is of a very high level. An absolute must!
