HiFi Choice review of the Lumina II

Lumina II Amator is a passive bookshelf speaker that builds on the strengths of its predecessor, Lumina II, with improved performance and upgraded crossover technology.

AMATOR HERITAGE

Amator is an evocative name, which has always characterized all the special Sonus faber models, becoming synonymous with uniqueness. Any market enthusiast knows that from this name it is right to expect an exciting and engaging listen.

MADE IN ITALY

Made in Sonus faber’s Vicenza, Italy factory, Lumina Amator incorporates iconic Sonus faber design materials, including wood and leather. Lumin II Amator features the simple squared design of the Lumina collection with new front panels featuring 45-degree woodgrain lacquered veneers.

IMPROVED CROSSOVER The Lumina II Amator crossovers have been designed, inheriting the legacy left by the development of the new Homage collection. Many of the solutions adopted on the new special models are derived from those of the Amati G5 and Guarneri G5.

Improved Crossover

Lumina Amator II boasts an upgraded crossover network at 2600 Hz, an 800 Hz improvement from Lumina II, elevating the overall listening experience to new heights.

SIMPLICITY, STYLE, AND PERFORMANCE

Lumina takes note from core Sonus faber technologies, design, and manufacturing principles – transforming them into a beautifully minimalistic masterpiece, made in Italy.

TWEETER

The iconic D.A.D. (Damped Apex Dome) tweeter, the same used in the Sonetto series, features a Kurtmueller hand coated soft silk diaphragm of 29mm. The chrome rings around the drivers highlight their shapes and proportions and give brightness to the front baffle.

MIDWOOFER

Lumina II Amator features a 4’’ midwoofer developed for this collection. It is equipped with a custom-made basket and a diaphragm composed of cellulose pulp blended with other natural fibers.

IFF CROSSOVER

The IFF circuitry and the phase coherent philosophy ensure perfect rendering of the virtual sound stage in three dimensions. The new filters also offer greater resolution and more rigorous and coherent reproduction.
