Engineered to Deliver More Than Ordinary Architectural Audio

The Perfect Companion to Arena 30

The Arena 20 was developed to extend the capabilities of Sonus faber's larger Arena 30 into more flexible system configurations.

Its substantial driver complement and long-excursion woofers make it particularly suitable for use as a surround loudspeaker in a high-performance private cinema.

In this configuration, the Arena 20 can complement the front soundstage established by the Arena 30, supporting the reproduction of directional effects, ambient information, and complex multichannel soundtracks.

For media rooms and installations where a more compact architectural solution is required, the Arena 20 can also serve as the primary left and right loudspeakers.

This versatility allows system designers to tailor the speaker configuration to the room's dimensions, seating arrangement, screen size, and performance requirements without sacrificing the cohesive character of the Arena collection.

117 dB of Cinematic Output

A truly engaging cinema experience depends on a loudspeaker's ability to reproduce both the quietest details and the most demanding dynamic passages.

The Arena 20's specified maximum output of 117 dB at one meter provides substantial acoustic capability for demanding home theater applications.

Its 92 dB sensitivity and recommended amplifier power of up to 400 watts allow system designers to pair the speaker with appropriately selected amplification, while its nominal 4-ohm impedance makes amplifier compatibility an important consideration.

When integrated with a capable surround processor, dedicated subwoofers, proper bass management, and professional room calibration, the Arena 20 can contribute to a cohesive listening experience throughout the theater.

Architectural Integration Without Compromise

At approximately 62 inches tall and just 12.6 inches wide, the Arena 20 offers a tall, narrow architectural format that can be incorporated into custom wall treatments and dedicated theater designs.

Its 5.7-inch mounting depth allows the speaker to be integrated into appropriately constructed wall assemblies, while an optional square magnetic grille provides a discreet finish that protects the drivers without visually dominating the room.

The Arena 20's substantial 103.6-pound weight should be considered during the design phase, with suitable structural support and installation clearances incorporated into the project.

For luxury residential installations, this approach allows the audio system to deliver serious performance while the screen, interior finishes, furnishings, and lighting remain the visual focus.

The result is a loudspeaker designed to command attention acoustically, not visually.

The Natural Sound of Sonus faber, Reimagined for Cinema

Sonus faber has built its identity around the relationship between acoustic engineering, craftsmanship, and the emotional experience of listening to music.

The Arena collection extends that philosophy into the world of custom-installed home cinema, where loudspeakers must deliver substantial output while integrating into the architecture of the room.

The Arena 20 offers a balance of high-output capability, installation flexibility, and sophisticated acoustic design.

Its 3.5-way configuration, dual long-excursion woofers, and dedicated enclosure provide the foundation for demanding cinematic applications, while its versatility allows it to serve different roles within a multichannel system.

Whether reproducing the atmosphere of a quiet scene, the complexity of an orchestral score, or the impact of a dramatic action sequence, the Arena 20 is designed to make the soundtrack an essential part of the experience.
