General: The Sonus Faber Electa Amator III is a 35 Year Anniversary product from Sonus Faber.

Technical: The Sonus Faber Electa Amator 1 was a groundbreaking excellent loudspeaker in 1987. A compact, ultra-high-quality monitor loudspeaker with a surprisingly deep and high-quality bass reproduction. The Electa Amator 1 sounded, and sounds like a mature floor-standing loudspeaker. In 1997 came the Electa Amator 2. The Electa Amator 2 was different, but not seriously better. Still very good though. This Electa Amator 2 had a smaller tweeter, so no more Dynaudio Esotar, and a passive radiator, and was and is very good. Now in 2018, Sonus Faber brings the Electa Amator III to the market. The Electa Amator III had to and would become a clearly better loudspeaker than the first series, and Sonus Faber has achieved this with the aid of the latest materials and own units and filter technologies. The cabinet is again made of solid walnut strips of wood, which are blended together by means of a copper plate to a Carrara marble base plate. The stands are black aluminum columns filled with dampening granules, which are also attached to the marble base by means of a copper plate. The units are the best units currently built by Sonus Faber. A 180mm paper/composite woofer/midrange with a neodymium magnet, and the renowned 28mm tweeter with a DAD damper and a solid wooden resonance chamber. The sensitivity is considerably higher than that of the original Electa Amators, and aurally, the new Electa Amator III has made an enormous leap.

Listening: We hoped that the Sonus Faber Electa Amator III would inherit some of the qualities of the original 2, and we are not disappointed. This speaker sounds truly musical. The Sonus Faber Electa Amator III sounds immediately quiet, grand and captivating. It is clearly audible how this Sonus Faber Electa Amator III simply sounds better than the original versions, but retains the charm. The treble, for example, is silky soft, but also super transparent and with extremely much detail. The bass is full, warm and simply very beautiful. Not the super tight sound of, for example, the Sonus Faber Guarneri Tradition or a Magico S1 mk2, but a fuller reproduction. It is truly incredible how quickly you will enjoy the music when listening to this new Sonus Faber Electa Amator III. This set is from now on permanently available at Ohm-Audio bv for a musical demo. The Electa Amator 3 should not be seen as a beautiful anniversary product. It is truly a very good reproducer that produces incredible music. This set of Sonus Faber Electa Amator III loudspeakers is new and ready for many years of musical enjoyment in your home.
