The Brand Is Thrilled to Celebrate Its New All-In-One Wireless Speaker
VICENZA, IT (APRIL 7, 2022) – Sonus faber is honored to announce its Omnia speaker has been awarded the Red Dot Design Award, recognized in both “Audio and “Innovative Product” categories for product design in 2022. Announced in February of this year, Omnia combines Sonus faber’s Italian heritage and design expertise with a suite of features that allow users to connect a variety of media with new, innovative technology at an accessible product.
Designers and manufacturers from over 60 countries entered products in this year’s Red Dot Award’s Product Design category for 2022. The Red Dot Jury comprised of 48 international members assessed each product to identify outstanding design quality for distinction. Sonus faber is incredibly proud to be amongst the award-winning companies setting new standards in the design industry with Omnia.
Omnia features two new trademarked technologies, the touch sensitive SENSOTM interface permits users to directly control the device and easily connect to any digital or analog source, including their television, turntable, or mobile device. The illuminated lines on the top SENSOTM panel further indicate the speakers’ mode, input, and volume. The intuitive interface further supports the latest streaming technology as well as trusted turntable ready (MM) technology, offering seamless playback from mobile devices with integrated Bluetooth, Apple AirPlay 2, and Chromecast. The new CRESCENDOTM technology is an advanced signal processing system resulting in a greater sense of dimensionality and immersivity, cleverly utilizing the two full range sides speakers. The Omnia system boasts a mesmerizing three- dimensional sound to immerse listeners in a unique, natural acoustic experience. The result is a crisp wavefront and wide soundstage that mimics that of a live performance, as with the tradition of Sonus faber’s iconic, award-winning portfolio.
“It’s an honor and a privilege to receive this award from the RedDot’s jury on Omnia, said Sonus faber’s Chief Design Officer, Livio Cucuzza. “I’m particularly proud of the team who worked on the product and its communication. Products are merely the physical shape of people’s dreams - they don’t exist without us.”
“In this year of the competition, I have been particularly struck by the exceptional creativity shown by the award-winning products,” said Professor Dr. Peter Zec, founder and CEO of Red Dot. “It is really impressive and praiseworthy that there are still designs out there that can surprise us with their form and functionality. This makes it clear that design cannot be restricted or brought to a standstill by unfavorable circumstances. On the contrary: more and more new ideas and creations emerge, and futuristic techniques are developed. The fact that the quality of these products equals their level of innovation makes them well-deserved winners in the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2022. “
Omnia is available for purchase through Authorized Sonus faber Dealers in wood and graphite at $1,999 / €1,799 MRSP. For more information, visit www.sonusfaber.com/en/products/omnia.
