The shape of the lute inspired the Guarneri. This form is how Sonus faber conceived and realized a highly musical compact monitor to be as close as possible to an acoustic point-source. The shape of the lute also inspired the Amati.
The formal aspect of the Stradivari homage expresses its conceptual origin. It is shaped like two facing lutes: a further development of the construction criterion of Sonus faber loudspeakers.
However, the “soul” of Stradivari is also reminiscent of the construction principles of stringed instrument making, because inside it houses a linking element that unites the two walls, just like the joined plates of a violin. The exclusive cabinet features curved walls. The density of the wood employed to make the walls, the quality and the direction of the fibers have been carefully researched to distribute and control resonance.
