LUMINA V

LUMINA V 3-way, floorstanding loudspeaker: £2625/pair

Flagship Elegance and Immersive Sound

The Sonus Faber Lumina V stands as the flagship three-way floorstanding speaker in the Lumina Collection, redefining simplicity with luxury. While new to the brand’s design portfolio, it carries Sonus Faber’s legacy of refined craftsmanship and premium materials. A slender, high-performance speaker with excellent power handling and fast transient response, the Lumina V delivers a natural, emotional, and immersive listening experience.

The Sonus Faber Experience

The Lumina V combines state-of-the-art acoustic engineering with luxurious craftsmanship, offering a natural and immersive listening experience at an accessible price point. As the pinnacle of the Lumina Collection, it is perfect for those seeking high-fidelity sound, iconic design, and the unmistakable artistry of Sonus Faber in their home.

Design Philosophy: Minimalism and Quality

The Lumina V embodies the “less is more” philosophy with its minimalist, squared design. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, it showcases premium materials, including:

  • Real multilayer wood front baffle in Walnut or Wenge finishes with Maple inlays or high-gloss Piano Black.

  • Hand-applied black leather on all other cabinet surfaces.

This timeless design, steeped in Italian heritage, emphasises both form and function, ensuring a seamless integration into any living space while delivering remarkable acoustic performance.

Advanced Acoustic Innovations

  • Lute-Shaped Mid-High Chamber:
    The Lumina V introduces a new internal mid-high volume with Sonus Faber’s iconic lute shape. This design maximises structural rigidity and minimises standing waves, enhancing the natural tonality of midrange frequencies, especially those crucial for human voices.

  • Hybrid IFF Crossover - Paracross Topology™:
    Combining Interactive Fusion Filtering (IFF) with Paracross Topology™, this advanced crossover reduces driver back EMF and sensitivity to radio frequencies, resulting in an organic, interconnected sound with greater definition and precision.

  • Driver Complement:
    The Lumina V pairs a 29mm silk dome tweeter with DAD™ (Damped Apex Dome™) technology and a 5-inch midrange driver featuring a natural fibre and paper blend diaphragm. These components ensure smooth high frequencies and an expressive, natural midrange.

Performance-Driven Versatility

  • For stereo listening, its dynamic range and distortion-free sound make it perfect for music enthusiasts who value a rich and natural listening experience.

  • In home theater systems, when combined with other Lumina speakers like the Lumina Center I and Gravis subwoofers, the Lumina III shines in multichannel setups, delivering powerful action sequences, clear dialogue, and immersive soundscapes.

The Lumina Collection: Cohesive Elegance

The Lumina V stands as the flagship of the Lumina range, celebrated for its elegant design, exceptional sound performance across a variety of music genres, and outstanding versatility. As a three-way floorstanding speaker, the Lumina V excels as the main channel in both stereo and multichannel configurations, delivering a powerful and immersive listening experience.

When combined with the Lumina CI centre channel, the Lumina II rear channels and the Gravis I or Gravis II subwoofers, the Lumina V produces impactful low-frequency effects and a fully enveloping soundstage, making it a perfect choice for any home theatre or music system.

For even greater customisation, the Lumina range can seamlessly integrate with Sonus Faber’s Palladio Collection of custom-installation speakers, creating a unified system that combines discreet aesthetics with exceptional performance.

Lumina V Perfected: The Amator Edition

In addition to the stock Lumina V, Sonus Faber introduces the Lumina V Amator, a flagship model that redefines excellence. With enhanced crossover networks, luxurious herringbone wood finishes, and advanced technology drawn from the Homage Collection, the Lumina V Amator offers unmatched performance and a truly immersive listening experience.
