Selling my Sonus Faber Olympica Nova III floorstanders in beautiful walnut finish with original boxes, manuals, and all accessories. Moving up the Sonus Faber range so it’s time to find these beautiful speakers a new home. Purchased new. Light, careful use only in a smoke-, child-free and pet-fre...
Condition isn’t stated, so this is still a solid buy at A$13,000: it lands just under the A$13,114 median and below the A$13,918 75th percentile for recent Australian comps, so it’s at least fair and arguably a mild bargain if the cabinets and drivers are clean. It’s not a “must jump immediately” deal, but it’s priced in the right zone for a high-end floorstander.
These are very well-regarded for their natural, spacious midrange, refined treble, and easy musicality rather than hi-fi fireworks. If the pair is complete and well cared for, the real upside is getting a serious, long-term speaker at a sensible entry point versus paying top-of-market. Just confirm original grilles/spikes, driver condition, and that there’s no cabinet damage, since resale value here depends a lot on cosmetics.
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.
