1.125" D.A.D. (Damped Apex Dome) Tweeter: The Lumina CI center-channel loudspeaker features Sonus faber's iconic D.A.D. (Damped Apex Dome) tweeter with a 1.125" hand-coated soft silk diaphragm and Sonus faber's exclusive visco-elastically baffle decoupling for exceptional high frequency and voice reproduction.

Dual 4.75" Cellulose Pulp Cone Woofers: The Sonus faber Lumina CI center-channel speaker houses two 4.75" mid-woofers with custom-made cellulose pulp cones blended with other natural fibers, robust rubber surrounds, and specially-designed, ultra-free compression baskets for a natural sound that is both dynamic and linear with clear dialog..

Specifically Designed Crossover: The Lumina CI center-channel speaker utilizes a specifically designed 2-way crossover with Sonus faber branded high-quality capacitors for a smooth transition between the tweeter and mid-woofer drivers with optimized amplitude, phase, space, and timing.

Bass Reflex Multi-Layer Wood Enclosure: The Lumina CI center-channel speaker uses a multi-layer wood cabinet with a real-wood veneer front baffle that is available in a Walnut, Wenge, or Black finish. The outer sides and top of the speaker enclosure are covered with a black synthetic leather material. The included cloth grille magnetically attaches to the front of the speaker. The cabinet is a bass reflex design with a front-firing port for greater extension in low frequencies and reduction of distortion. The front-firing port also allows for more placement options, allowing you to even place the speaker closer to a back wall.

Dual Nickel-Plated Binding Post Terminals: The Lumina CI has two sets of nickel-plated binding posts connected by jumpers. Using the dual binding posts, you can bi-amp or bi-wire the speakers (make sure to remove the jumpers in this scenario). The binding post terminals will accept banana plugs (single only), pin-connectors, spade-connectors, and bare wire (up to 10AWG). The nickel-plated binding post terminals provide excellence signal transfer and resistance to corrosion.

• Bi-Wiring: Bi-wiring can provide noticeable improvements in the overall transparency of your loudspeakers. Run separate speaker wires to the low & high frequency drivers from a single amplifier (the upper set of binding posts are for the high frequency drivers; the lower set of binding posts are for the low frequency drivers).
• Bi-Amping: Bi-amping allows you to use separate amplifiers for the high & low frequency sections of your loudspeaker for greater dynamic range & lower distortion. We recommend that your separate amplifiers have identical gain to preserve the speaker's voicing balance.

Mounting & Placement Options: The Lumina CI center-channel speaker should be centered above or below the TV screen. It can be positioned on a stand (sold separately - see Accessories Tab), shelf, tabletop, or other flat mounting surface. It is recommended to position the speaker away from the corners of the room, and at a distance of at least 3.3125' from the back wall. An integrated soft pad on the bottom of the speaker cabinet prevents scratches and damages to your mounting surface.

Lumina Collection: The Lumina collection pays tribute to Sonus faber's historic heritage and are made in Italy. The Lumina series boasts the core values of Sonus faber with the use of its iconic materials - including synthetic, natural composition of drivers, and real multilayer wood cabinets. The Lumina line-up consists of two floorstanding loudspeakers (Lumina III/Lumina V), two bookshelf loudspeakers (Lumina I/Lumina II), and a center-channel speaker (Lumina CI). The Lumina collection delivers uncompromised sound performance that is perfect for a two-channel stereo setup or a multi-channel home theater system.

Optional Subwoofer: Add on a Sonus faber Gravis series powered subwoofer (Gravis I/Gravis II) for an even more immersive listening experience with bigger, deeper, and more impactful bass.
