So what are you getting? To sum up, the sound is smooth, warm, and comfortable. These speakers don’t attack you, they have a rich midrange and low end. The top end is easy to listen to for hours, the sparkle is for me just right. I actually prefer these over my Martin Logan Aerius I, in fact so much I have purchased these speakers for my reference system and will be the speaker I use for all future reviews. The sound stage has plenty of width, especially if you don’t have them too close to the side walls. The depth is not quite as much as my Electrosats, though this is something I found with just about all the conventional driver speakers I have listened to. Imaging is spot-on accurate, and listening to well-recorded live albums is especially enjoyable.

I realize that aesthetics is not needed to showcase a sound system, but having beautifully designed speakers will not hurt with the wife acceptance factor. The Sonetto Vs look and sound expensive, yet they are more affordable for music lovers looking to up their game. They display an ideal combination of design and function that helps make the music more emotionally engaging. You may find other speakers in the $5,000 range, but not many have the design details and sound qualities of the Sonetto Vs. As I get older, my desire to reach the summit in this hobby becomes more important to me. The Sonus faber Sonetto V Speakers remind me that I still have time to reach for something a bit higher without mortgaging my future to obtain it. Bravo Sonus faber!

Samro –
Ik ben er heel tevreden mee. Klinkt niet zo overdreven scherp. Mooie volle klank en het mid/hoog is heel muzikaal en detailrijk. Deze luidspreker moet niet in een té kleine ruimte en een eindje van de achterwand geplaatst worden voor een goede basweergave.
