THE RE-BIRTH OF A MYTH
EX3MA
Celebration of 30 years of History
Celebration of 30 years of History
In 1991 Extrema became one of those maximum expressions
in the design of acoustic speakers worldwide.
This is why Sonus faber decided to celebrate
its 30th anniversary paying tribute to its most “extreme” project.
The wiry shape of the speaker breaks on purpose the tradition of the soft lines that characterize Sonus faber products. It's been obtained using a reduction process in which the volume was extracted from a block of rigid material.
As marble under the skilled hands of the sculptor, the raw material has been broken to obtain clean cuts and tight surfaces. Ex3ma is for performance without compromises and its dynamic lines mirror its character and nature.
In Ex3ma every single material used has a particular meaning for Sonus faber. The Carbon Fiber monocoque recalls the experience gained with the Pagani Huayra premium audio system; the sides made in Red Spruce from the Val di Fiemme quotes the Italian violin making tradition; Avional and Ergal (Aluminium alloys) gives continuity with the Sonus faber products and provide further rigidity to the overall structure; the Beryllium represents the research and the experimentation.
It is an extreme project that aims without hesitation at the maximum possible resolution,
but it must also be simple with a single cut in frequency and with only two active loudspeakers,
and the passive radiator dampened, as the original Extrema was.
