SONUS FABER GUARNERI EVOLUTION + DEDICATED STAND

Pair - Gloss Black


BRAND NEW - SEALED - WARRANTY








The evolution of a classic.

The Guarneri Evolution confirms another strong Sonus faber idea, of which the first Guarneri speaker was the earliest example: an acoustic instrument living in its environment becomes part of it, carrying out the functions of both a music source as well as being a beautiful piece of furniture.

The design choices, the finishes of the new materials, the increased quality of the craftsmanship and the extreme attention paid to every detail are, just like the sound produced, the enhanced expression of this concept and the most concrete testimony that our everlasting values are not only deeply-rooted in the present, but also strengthened thanks to an Evolution process.

Guarneri Evolution expresses the renewal of continuity. An evolution made possible thanks to the combination of patented technical solutions that were developed through experience that brought us to the production of our flagship (the Sonus faber).


TUNED MASS DAMPER

The two end-covers are linked by the dual avional rear wings, functioning as a high speed mechanical interface that conveys spurious vibrations to the base of the cabinet.

A Tuned Mass Damper, with multiple tuning frequencies, like on record skyscrapers and F1 cars converts the residual vibrations into heat (thermkinetics) by out-of-phase vibrations.

 
ACOUSTIC ENCLOSURE

The cabinet is the highest expression of the lute shape design. The progressive gentle curve, made of multilayer cross-grained okumè, is applied through separate smoothed layers, thus applying the technique of constrained layer damping. The acoustic environment of the transducer of mid bass is optimized to a degree of theoretical perfection. Sub-structural ribs are strategically placed inside the cabinet to strengthen it. Guarneri Evolution introduces the S.M.D.: Surface Mass Damper system that minimizes any discolouring of the cabinet.


EVOLUTION STAND

The ‘Anima Legata’, another derivative of the Sonus faber, is made up of two surfaces, worked and positioned orthogonally to a concentric compressed traction bar in the column.

A thickening volumetric eliminates any resonance in the cavity of the column and thanks to the friction between the grains a thermo-kinetic dissipation is generated.

 
EXO-SQUELETON

The Exo-Squeleton clamp is implemented by the 2 CNC machined avional nickel-plated end-covers (on the top and on the bottom of the cabinet). Their role is to control and constrain residual resonances of the enclosure walls.

The two end-covers are linked by the dual avional rear wings, functioning as a high speed mechanical interface that conveys spurious vibrations to the base of the cabinet.
 

SYSTEM
2 way, low spurious vibration optimised suspension, stealth reflex para-aperiodic loading, compact monitor on a dedicated stand loudspeaker system.

CABINET
Lute shape design, multilayer, constrained-mode damping, enclosure formed using hand selected wood layers, quality graded and oriented for carefully optimised resonances control.
Sub-structural ribs are strategically placed for absolute rejection of spurious vibrations. “New Era” avional (from “The” experience) exo-squeleton clamp structure with “The” Tuned Mass Damper inhibiting the residual resonances of the wooden structure.

TWEETER
29 mm ultra dynamic linearity classic Ragnar Lian moving coil driver, Sonus faber vibration optimised mechanical interface.


 MIDRANGE/WOOFER
179 mm, ultra dynamic linearity driver. CCAW/Kapton “eddy current free” voice coil.
Dynamically linear magnetic field motor incorporating triple Kellog/Goeller rings. Real time air dried and non pressed cellulose fibre cone. Designed synergistically with its optimised “acoustic chamber”.A special coaxial anti-compressor are used, designed to remove cavity resonance and distortions.

CROSS-OVER
Non-resonant “progressive slope” design, optimised amplitude/phase response for optimal space/time performance. “Paracross topology” topology on the tweeter hi-pass. The response at low frequencies is controlled for a clear amplifier friendly performance. Highest quality is used in terms of the components: Mundorf “Supreme” capacitors, Jantzen inductors.
