35 Years of Love for Music

Celebrating Sonus Faber’s 35th anniversary, the Electa Amator III honours its legendary predecessors—the Electa Amator (1987) and Electa Amator II (1997)—while embracing modern innovation. This exquisite bookshelf speaker blends premium materials, advanced acoustic design, and impeccable craftsmanship, representing the pinnacle of Sonus Faber’s heritage and evolution.

Featuring a 28mm DAD™ soft dome tweeter for smooth, extended highs and a 6.5" cellulose pulp mid-woofer for warm, lifelike bass, the Electa Amator III achieves the Natural Sound signature that defines Sonus Faber. Its solid walnut cabinet is complemented by hand-applied leather and a brass-accented base, paired with either classic Carrara marble or modern Marquina marble in the new Graphite finish.

Supported by dedicated stands with black anodised aluminium columns and marble bases, the Electa Amator III combines structural stability with timeless design. This two-way speaker delivers a dynamic and immersive listening experience, offering a perfect harmony of tradition and innovation.

Iconic Renaissance

Redesigning such a symbolic loudspeaker is a challenging yet captivating endeavour. The Electa Amator III represents the culmination of a 30-year journey, a natural evolution that stays true to the elements that define Sonus Faber: premium materials, impeccable craftsmanship, and Natural Sound.

Luxurious Materials and Thoughtful Design

The Electa Amator III embodies Sonus Faber’s philosophy of blending art with acoustic engineering:

  • Cabinet Base with Brass Insert: The base of each cabinet is adorned with a brass insert reminiscent of cherished past projects, highlighting the speaker’s elegant lines and complementing its materials.

  • Natural Stone Integration: The cabinet’s construction pays homage to Sonus Faber’s tradition of using stone for structural rigidity. Each cabinet is paired with a distinct stone base, including Carrara marble and the modern Marquina marble found in the new Graphite variant. These materials ensure acoustic stability while enhancing visual appeal.

  • Walnut and Leather Craftsmanship: Solid walnut wood forms the cabinet body, while the front and rear panels are wrapped in hand-applied leather, framing the "Voice of Sonus Faber." This careful selection of materials results in a heterogeneous mechanical behaviour, optimising the cabinet for Natural Sound.

Timeless Excellence

The Electa Amator III exemplifies Sonus Faber’s dedication to merging artisanal craftsmanship with advanced technology. This two-way bookshelf speaker combines simplicity and sophistication, delivering a dynamic and immersive listening experience. With its new Graphite finish, enhanced by black Marquina marble, the Electa Amator III presents a modern interpretation of a timeless classic.
