Compared with the obvious alternative of buying new, this sits above the recent used market for this model: the €13,950 ask is well past the €10,890 median and even above the €12,420 75th percentile, so it reads ambitious rather than fair. It would need something meaningfully special—near-mint cosmetics, full packaging, or exceptional provenance—to justify that level.
That said, this is a very serious floorstander with the kind of refined, room-filling sound Sonus faber fans chase: rich tone, excellent imaging, and a presentation that flatters vocals and acoustic music without sounding sterile. If the pair is clean, complete, and properly cared for, it remains a worthwhile speaker; the question is simply whether the seller’s condition and extras really support a premium above normal used pricing.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Sonus faber was founded in 1983 by Franco Serblin in Vicenza, Italy, emerging from a singular vision to create loudspeakers of superior musical quality using natural materials and refined design. The company's name, Latin for "handcrafted sound," encapsulates its foundational philosophy. Serblin's early work—including the iconic Snail prototype inspired by Leonardo da Vinci's sketches—established the brand's commitment to marrying acoustic performance with sculptural aesthetics. The company's Italian heritage remains central to its identity, with production continuing in Vicenza for over four decades.
Sonus faber specializes exclusively in loudspeakers, a focused approach that has defined its market position. The brand is renowned for handcrafted wooden cabinets, violin-inspired industrial design, and signature model lines including the Guarneri Homage, Amati, Stradivari, and Aida. Early designs featured Kevlar woofers and silk-dome tweeters, though solid-wood construction became the defining material signature. Each speaker is treated as a musical instrument rather than mere audio equipment, reflecting the company's artisanal manufacturing ethos.
Sonus faber occupies the premium high-end segment of the audio market, commanding respect among discerning audiophiles and collectors worldwide. The brand's reputation rests on uncompromising craftsmanship, luxury materials, and the integration of traditional Italian design principles with contemporary audio technology. Its positioning appeals to listeners who view speakers as both functional components and interior design statements—a niche that has sustained the company's prestige and premium pricing across its four-decade history.
