Description :
Part of the Sonus Faber Home Series, the Sonus Faber Concerto Home follows the current trend of versatility in the modern home. Sonus faber has came up with a complete range of speakers to cater for the home audio and video buff. The Concerto Home series neatly bridges the gap for those upgrading from the Concertino series and aspiring to the Homage range. The Concerto Home speakers follow the tradition of the Italian manufacturer’s more illustrious offerings – solid walnut cabinetry, soft leather wrap and attention to detail, right down to the oversized crate it came in. The speakers’ weight hints at the serious engineering that went into construction. By design, the Concerto Homes are two-way units, each with a 13-litre enclosure and also features a front reflex port. The shape carries similar design cues to the slightly smaller Concertino brother, with a horizontal base but the rest of walls constructed at specific angles to disperse internal reflections and standing waves.
The Concerto Home has a deeper bass than the Concertino Home and it is for small to medium size rooms. The front reflex port lends more flexibility, and it is relatively unfussy about placement. The speakers thrives on current, favouring more powerful amplifiers for better sound. As with all Sonus Faber products, the midrange is smooth and detailed. The sense of space surrounding the performance is vibrant and realistic. On more-traditional rock recordings, the subtleties of the drums and bass line are easily discernible. Voices are detailed, yet pleasing.
On movie material, the system sound like a well-matched theater system. The Piccolo Solo matches the Concertos perfectly in timbre and pitch. The tonality never shifts as the sounds did. Dialogue is extremely natural. On surround activity, the Concertinos round out the room perfectly, with high fidelity and pleasing ambience. On DTS music, the system sound incredibly coherent and well-matched, creating an exciting audio experience. If you are looking for a system that offers both pleasing aesthetics and extremely satisfying audio performance, look no further than these offerings from an Italian company with as much heritage as anyone could need. By adding the Sonus Faber Gravis subwoofer, the Concerto ensemble is hard to beat.
