Sonus Faber AMATI FUTURA
By the name of the famous lutist of the Cremona school, an ensemble of experience and solutions - both aesthetic and technical from Sonus Faber take their shape in a brand new project.
Amati Futura: the first step in this new and exciting direction, towards the revolution of sound. First, a restyling of a famous and worldwide appreciated collection. Second, a creation that gives a deep sense to the great R&D effort that has been invested in "the Sonus Faber". Amati Futura is not to be considered an "isolated episode" but a capital of know-how and culture serving the best possible reproduction of music at every level.
The "Exo-Squeleton" clamp is implemented by the 2 CNC machined avional nickel-plated end-covers on the top and on the bottom of the cabinet, together with two dual avional rear "wings", that absorbe, convey and delete spurious vibrations from the cabinet. For a musical reproduction in the deepest silence also innovations from the Sonus faber have been used: the L.V.T. Syste, (Low Vibration Transmission), the Stealth Reflex System and the T.M.D. (Tuned Mass Damper).
Price: $35,995.00 per pair

REL Acoustics G1 Sub-Bass System
The G1 features REL's most recent exposition on amplifier topology, driver technology and operational interface. Housed within a sumptuous furniture-grade enclosure finished in gloss piano black lacquer resides a massive 12" long-throw carbon fibre driver, 600 watt Class A/B power amplifier and the award-winning REL connectivity suite providing the most flexible and sonically transparent integration, weight and low-frequency authority to the main loudspeaker system.
Employing an extensively braced enclosure sculpted in a truly sensuous shape, the G1 is massive, yet elegant. While it is physically commanding, its finely tuned shape finished in furniture-grade hand-rubbed high-gloss piano black lacquer will blend seamlessly into any interior environment. REL's vast engineering experience is evident in the G1's power amplifier. Featuring a linear Class A/B topology employing no less than six MOS-FET devices, massive power supplies and transformer there is no mistaking the G1 with a common subwoofer.
Execution of build and component part choice is first-class resulting in extensive ruggedness and reliability. Mated to this massive power plant is a tight-wind carbon fibre 12" drive unit capable of an exceptional pistonic stroke of 1-3/4 inches! This costly drive unit was necessary in order to generate the ultimate in loudness required to underpin today's great high-performance main loudspeakers.
