The wider view: Sonus faber Lumina III reviews in brief
The Lumina III is the slim floorstander in Lumina, the entry range that Sonus faber designs and builds entirely in Italy. It is a three-way speaker with a 29 mm tweeter, a 150 mm midrange and two 150 mm woofers. The front baffle is multilayer wood and the sides and top are wrapped in black leather, while the port fires down through the plinth.
Carlo Lo Raso reviewed it for HomeTheaterHifi.com in March 2021 and heard at once the lush midrange and airy treble he expects of the brand. Piano rang sweetly with a fine sense of each note’s decay, and close-miked voices came through warm and expressive. A live jazz trio filled his room with an image that spread well beyond the speakers and gave a real feel for the venue. Cymbals sparkled without ever becoming tiresome. He found it easy to set up too, needing barely any toe-in to bring the image into focus, and he summed it up as “a delightful and important speaker”.
It is worth knowing that in his large studio he found the region between the bass and the lower midrange a little lean, so cellos and acoustic bass lost some body as the notes rose. Room correction filled that in. He expects a position nearer the wall in a more usual room to do much the same, and the measurements that came with the review showed the room playing a large part.
It suits a medium-sized room and anyone taking a first step into Sonus faber, which is what Lumina was made for. The amplifiers we would put with it are in the Goes with line below. We can demonstrate the Lumina III and help find the spot in your room where its bass fills out.
What the reviewers say, in a nutshell
- HomeTheaterHifi.com, Carlo Lo Raso, March 2021. Rich midrange and airy treble with a big, open image. A little lean in the upper bass in his room until room correction filled it in.
Goes with: Bluesound POWERNODE, Lyngdorf TDAI-1120, McIntosh MA252.
