Sonus Faber Bookshelf Speakers Lumina II Walnut (Pair)

The Lumina II is the best-selling speaker in the Lumina line - and for good reason. This compact little wonder puts out a huge amount of sound - and just looks gorgeous with its proportions. These move up to a larger 150mm midbass driver that produces a great deal of bass for its size. This is helped out by a much bigger cabinet than the Lumina I. The Lumina II is different from the Lumina I in that these are made to be away from your room walls, and they will perform best on a good speaker stand - positioned away from the rear and sidewalls. They are more of an audiophile-type speaker in that with careful and precise setup, the sound they produce will amaze you. Once you get them set up properly, they have great dynamics, very fast bass, and that Sonus Faber signature sweet and open sound. They need a similar type of power as the Lumina I, so just make sure the amplifier you choose has good current capabilities. For home theater, we would probably say you should stick with the Lumina I for surround - unless you have a situation where your surround-channels would be away from the wall on a stand - then we would prefer the Lumina II over the I.

The simple and squared design of the Lumina models was chosen to emphasize the quality of materials used. This principle of minimalism directly captures the essence of this thoughtfully designed product. The Lumina collection boasts the core values of Sonus Faber and the use of its iconic materials, including leather, natural composition of drivers, and real multilayer wood available in Walnut and Wenge wood with Maple inlay matte and Piano Black glossy finishes.
