Sonus Faber Active Subwoofer Gravis I Black
Gravis I and II, the smaller models of the collection, discreet in size but powerful in performance, are the ideal compromise for middle sized listening rooms.
Thanks to their accurate and expressive bass reproduction, they can be matched with almost every kind of music and video system, but they have been specifically designed for the Sonus faber Sonetto family.
Both Sonus faber Gravis I & II use quality stamped steel-frame speaker units: Gravis I features a 8” Ultra Long Throw down-firing speaker unit along with a high current 150W Class AB amplifier; Gravis II uses a 10” Ultra Long Throw down-firing speaker unit and a 10” aluminum along with a high current 400W Class AB amplifier, alloy diaphragm passive infra-bass radiator.
Consistent with the Sonetto line’s aesthetics, Gravis I and II are available in three finishes: Wood, Matte White and Piano Black, with the leather top embellished by the hot branded Sonus faber logo.

Pros
The spatial picture is always perfectly accurate. The most dense, significant, mobile and accurate bass.
Minuses
Nothing significant if you do not look at the price tag.
Review
The first AIDA was born in 2011 and since then remained the most outstanding achievement of Sonus Faber. The new AIDA is completely and fully developed in the laboratory of the company.
Today, the speakers from the suspension to the crossover are designed in the vicinity of the Italian city of Vicenz. It all started with a unique embarrassment chamber, which the company acquired several years ago.
Twiters of top acoustics have a wooden resonance chamber made of maple, which gives them a unique nature of the sound, 12 inch basins of AIDA columns with carbon fiber diffusers.
The dome and the whole design are completely its own development by Sonus Faber.
