Sonus faber Amati G5 – Homage Collection Floorstanding Loudspeakers

A Legacy of Italian Artistry. A New Generation of Sound.

Named in honor of legendary Italian violin maker Nicolò Amati, the Sonus faber Amati G5 represents the fifth generation of one of the most celebrated loudspeakers in high-end audio.

As the flagship of the Sonus faber Homage Collection, Amati G5 brings together centuries of Italian instrument-making inspiration, advanced acoustic engineering, and extraordinary craftsmanship.

Its elegant lute-shaped cabinet houses a sophisticated 3.5-way driver system featuring a Damped Apex Dome tweeter, dedicated midrange driver, and dual 220 mm woofers. With bass extension reaching 28 Hz, Amati G5 is designed to reproduce music with exceptional scale, detail, and natural tonal character.

Handcrafted in Vicenza, Italy, Amati G5 is a loudspeaker designed to be admired as much as it is heard.

The Art of Italian Loudspeaker Design

The Amati G5's unmistakable lute-shaped cabinet is more than a beautiful silhouette.

Its gracefully curved construction helps manage internal resonances while providing a rigid acoustic foundation for the drivers.

Each cabinet is meticulously handcrafted using nine layers of wood, carefully grain-matched and finished with nine coats of fine lacquer.

Luxurious Italian leather and precision aluminum detailing complete a design that reflects Sonus faber's dedication to traditional craftsmanship and contemporary acoustic engineering.

Damped Apex Dome Tweeter: Refined High Frequencies

Amati G5 features a 28 mm extended-range soft dome tweeter incorporating Sonus faber's Damped Apex Dome (D.A.D.) technology.

A high-power neodymium motor system and Arrow Point design work together to deliver controlled high-frequency reproduction.

The D.A.D. architecture addresses unwanted dome behavior, helping maintain clarity and detail throughout the upper frequencies.

From the delicate decay of a cymbal to the subtle ambience of a live recording, Amati G5 is engineered to preserve the nuances that bring music to life.

A Dedicated Midrange for Natural Musical Expression

A 150 mm midrange driver featuring an advanced neodymium magnet system reproduces the critical frequencies that give vocals and instruments their character.

The driver operates within a dedicated sealed enclosure incorporating Sonus faber's Intono technology.

This carefully engineered acoustic environment helps manage internal energy and supports the clarity and tonal balance of the midrange.

The result is a loudspeaker designed to reproduce voices, strings, and acoustic instruments with natural presence and musical expression.

Dual 220 mm Woofers. Powerful, Controlled Bass.

Two 220 mm woofers featuring Sonus faber's Dual Drive Motor System provide the foundation for Amati G5's low-frequency performance.

Redesigned woofer architecture and lightweight voice coils contribute to improved speed and control, while the Stealth Ultraflex vented enclosure manages airflow through its specially engineered aluminum reflex system.

With a manufacturer-specified frequency response extending from 28 Hz to 35 kHz, Amati G5 delivers the bandwidth required for everything from intimate jazz recordings to full-scale orchestral performances

Phase Coherent Crossover: Bringing Everything Together

Amati G5 incorporates Sonus faber's Phase Coherent Level 3 crossover network.

Carefully selected components, including hand-soldered capacitors and premium inductors, are designed to integrate the drivers while preserving the integrity of the musical signal.

The crossover operates at 200 Hz, 270 Hz, and 2,200 Hz, supporting a cohesive presentation across the loudspeaker's operating range.
