Sonus Faber Liuto Monitor Standmount Loudspeakers Great sounding Italian designed and made speakers. Come with original stands. (RRP: $6k including stands) The plastic on the tweeter surrounds have rubberised, they have a couple of marks on the surrounds, it doesn't affect the sound and can't be seen from a typical seated listening position. There's one tiny mark on the side of one of the speakers. It's in the second photo. Condition: Excellent Payment Method: Cash, PayPal, EFT Region/State: (VIC) Victoria/Australia By Frenzl 0 Comments AUD $1,850 Date: September 13, 20241 yr
A$1,850 looks like a fair-to-good ask for a clean pair of Liutos in excellent condition.
These are one of Sonus faber’s nicest mid-tier designs: beautifully built, easy to live with, and known for a smooth, refined midrange with real tone and easy long-term listenability. That makes them especially appealing if you want something musical rather than hyper-etched. At this price, the key upside is condition: if the cabinets, drivers, and grilles are truly excellent and the original packaging or stands are included, it’s a solid buy rather than a gamble.

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.
