PURITY AND PRECISION

The Olympica Nova Cii is the flagship centre channel speaker in Sonus Faber's esteemed Olympica Nova series. Meticulously engineered to deliver unparalleled clarity and precision, it ensures that dialogue and central audio elements in your home cinema are reproduced with exceptional fidelity. Its sophisticated design and advanced acoustic technologies make it an indispensable component for audiophiles seeking the pinnacle of sound performance.

Paracross Topology™ Crossover Network

The crossover network incorporates Paracross Topology™, reducing sensitivity to radio-frequency interference and lowering the noise floor. This design enhances transient response and overall clarity, ensuring seamless integration between drivers. Customised Clarity Cap capacitors are utilised to further refine sound quality.

Elegant and Functional Design

The Olympica Nova Cii is designed for versatility and ease of integration into various home environments. Its form factor allows for placement on shelves or within cabinetry without compromising acoustic performance. The speaker's supports are crafted from solid aluminium billets, providing stability and incorporating a cable management system to conceal wiring, maintaining a clean and elegant appearance.

Exquisite Craftsmanship

Handcrafted in Italy, the Olympica Nova Cii showcases Sonus Faber's dedication to premium materials and artisanal workmanship. The front baffle and cabinet sides are adorned with hand-finished natural wood, seamlessly integrated into a robust die-cast aluminium frame. Italian leather encircles the aesthetic rings around the woofers, applied by hand in their Vicenza factory, adding a touch of elegance to its appearance.

Advanced Acoustic Design

  • 28mm Silk Dome Tweeter with DAD™ Technology: The high-frequency driver features a 28mm silk soft dome equipped with Damped Apex Dome (DAD™) technology. This innovation applies local damping to the dome's apex, mitigating anti-phase behaviour and extending high-frequency response for smooth and detailed treble reproduction.

  • Dual Midrange Drivers: The Olympica Nova CII employs two 150mm midrange drivers with cones crafted from a blend of natural fibres and air-dried cellulose pulp. This composition ensures a natural sound with enhanced transparency and detail. The drivers are equipped with a CCAW (Copper-Clad Aluminium Wire) voice coil on an "eddy current free" former, reducing distortion and improving linearity.

  • Dual Woofer Configuration: The speaker features two 180mm woofers with a sandwich cone structure, combining two sheets of cellulose pulp with a hi-tech foam layer in between. This design provides swift and powerful low-frequency response while maintaining coherence with the mid-high units.

Structural Rigidity

Like the Homage Tradition and Reference collections, the Olympica Nova Cii features a cabinet crafted from eight layers of bent wood, delivering exceptional rigidity and structural stability. This design minimises vibrations and enhances overall acoustic performance, reproducing crystal-clear sound.

Olympica Nova CENTER CHANNEL Stands

The Olympica Nova Stand for center channels, crafted from aluminium with stainless steel spikes, mirrors the design philosophy of the Olympica Nova bookshelf stand.

It combines meticulous engineering with distinctive elegance, providing superior stability and vibration isolation while enhancing both the performance and the refined aesthetic of the Olympica Nova Ci and Cii center channels.

Stands and speakers are sold separately.
