Lamborghini is not synonymous with high-end audio, unless it’s in the car, but that doesn’t mean it won’t happen. In fact, it just did when Italian hand-crafted speaker brand Sonus faber revealed its next chapter of partnership with Automobili Lamborghini: the Il Cremonese Ex3me – Automobili Lamborghini Edition.
Like the recently announced hypercar, this pair of high-end speakers is ultra-exclusive, too. Revealed at Monterey Car Week at the prestigious Lamborghini Villa in Pebble Beach, California, over this past weekend, the Il Cremonese Ex3me – Automobili Lamborghini Edition is super limited to just 50 pairs, with each pair individually numbered and available in five iconic Lamborghini finishes: Giallo Countach, Arancio Egon, Blu Marinus Matte, Verde Mercurius, and Nero Nemesis Matte.
And just like a raging bull on four wheels, this beast of a loudspeaker is all about the experience. Each unit is handcrafted using natural materials, wrapped in carbon fiber, and finished with Corsatex by Dinamica for that unmistakable Lambo flair. Meaning, the cabinet features a five-sided angular sculpture that looks like it could slice open lesser soundbars for fun.
But it’s not just about the looks. The sonic performance is as extreme as its name suggests. A Beryllium DLC tweeter inherited from the Ex3ma handles the highs, with a resonant frequency above 35 kHz—because stopping at what humans can hear would be too mainstream. The mids are delivered by a 180 mm natural fiber cone made from air-dried cellulose, Kapok, and Kenaf. That’s right, plants.
For bass, there are dual 180 mm sandwich cone woofers, and if that’s still not enough, side-mounted infrawoofers reinforced with nanocarbon fiber take care of the subterranean rumbles. The entire system is tied together with a fully re-engineered Paracross Topology crossover featuring premium Mundorf components, because of course it is.
Each speaker is tuned by ear, not by software, by actual Sonus faber technicians who probably wear gloves and listen to Vivaldi while doing it. The result is a soundstage that doesn’t just fill the room—it declares dominance over it.
And if you’re wondering how much it’ll set you back… let’s just say it pairs nicely with your Fenomeno. Or your penthouse. Or both. Skip ahead to steal a few more looks.
