Entering the Reference Collection

Il Cremonese is the natural starting point for listeners seeking a Sonus Faber Reference speaker. It provides the collection’s craftsmanship, scale, and advanced cabinet engineering in the most approachable format.

For larger listening rooms

Lilium emphasizes deep-bass control, Il Cremonese ex3me prioritizes resolution and neutrality, and Aida is designed for the greatest physical scale. Room volume, listening distance, and placement freedom should guide the choice.

For a complete reference installation

Suprema is a system rather than a conventional pair of speakers. Its four-column architecture and external crossover require careful amplification, room planning, delivery, and professional setup.
