Sonus Faber is no stranger to developing high-end audio equipment. The Italian manufacturer of handcrafted speakers has recently launched a wireless speaker with an advanced acoustic package. Dubbed Omnia, the all-in-one sound system looks good and sounds even better.

Starting with the design, the speaker’s body seems to be inspired by the hull of a boat. Boasting a multilayer wooden top with a rich walnut finish, Omnia brings a traditional ambiance to your home. The speaker is also available in a sleek graphite finish which adds an aesthetic touch to your place. Once you’re done appreciating its body, the speaker enhances your listening experience with a suite of features.

Sonus Faber Launches Omnia Wireless Speaker

Sleek Italian design meets cutting-edge technology of Sonus Faber to give rise to a wireless system with CRESCENSO signal processing system. Enhancing the listener experience tenfold, Sonus Faber describes Crescendo technology as a “proprietary signal-processing system that uses a combination of in-phase bipole and anti-phase dipole dispersion to add a greater sense of dimensionality to the music.”

The device also features a touch-sensitive interface with three illuminated lines (flush light arrays) that determine whether the appliance is on or not. There is also a shorter line at the bottom of flush lights which helps in regulating the volume, mode and input of the speaker.

Touch Interface

In addition, remote control and smartphone allow you to operate the device from anywhere. Omnia offers a full range of wireless connectivity with Apple AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi. Furthermore, it also works with external sources such as CDs or TV.

Pros and Cons of Omnia Wireless Speaker

The Pros of Omnia Wireless Speaker’s Touch Interface feature is that it is very user-friendly. The speaker has a sleek and modern design, which makes it easy to control the music with just a touch. You can also use the touch interface to answer phone calls and control the volume. Another great feature of the touch interface is that you can customize your settings according to your own preferences. For example, you can choose to have the speaker always on standby mode or have it turn off after a certain amount of time.

The Cons of Omnia Wireless Speaker’s Touch Interface feature is that if your hands are wet or dirty, it can be difficult to control the music. In addition, the touch interface is not very sensitive, so you have to be careful when you’re touching it. Lastly, if you have long nails, it can also be difficult to control the music with just your fingertips.

Overall, Sonus Faber’s Omnia Wireless Speaker with Touch Interface is a great speaker that offers many features and benefits. It’s perfect for those who want a sleek and modern design and easy-to-use touch interface.
