Sonus Faber Il Cremonese ex3me
A Fusion of Master Artisanship and Innovation
The Cremonese Ex3me comes to life by fusing original design elements of Il Cremonese with advanced technology in a celebration concept model.
AN ENDURING LEGACY
The original Il Cremonese takes its name from renowned Italian luthier Antionio Stradivari’s most famous creation: a masterpiece violin lauded for its great vitality and surprising tonal balance. The innate versatility of the electroacoustic configuration of the original speaker revealed it to be a very effective bench test for new technological advancements. The result: complete sound neutrality, without resonance or coloration.
ACOUSTIC ELEGANCE FROM TOP TO BOTTOM
Il Cremonese Ex3me speakers are designed to deliver an uncompromisingly precise and transparent sound, without any interpretation of the musical message. This makes the speakers suitable as an extremely high-performance professional studio monitor. Il Cremonese Ex3me combines elements from the original project, such as midrange and woofers, with cutting-edge solutions to create Sonus faber’s 30th anniversary concept speakers.

WOOFER
The dual woofers of Il Cremonese Ex3me, each with a diameter of 180 mm, are placed in an independent acoustic chamber, acoustically amorphous and fitted with ‘Stealth Reflex’ ducts. The woofers use a combination of natural and technical materials to deliver transparent and pristine low frequencies.
INFRA-WOOFER
The two side-firing infra-woofers are a new design concept introducedfor Il Cremonese Ex3me. Their diaphragm is made from nanocarbon fiber, sourced for its incredible structural rigidity.
THE CROSSOVER NETWORK
The blend between the Beryllium DLC tweeter and the midrange is obtained courtesy of a totally redesigned mid-high crossover network, using non-inductive resistors and air core inductors. The entire crossover network implements Paracross Topology™, a trademark technology involving a special circuit that makes the crossover less sensitive to radio frequency interference, thereby lowering the noise floor.
