"The sound quality and general tuning are stupendous and give the SONORA a jack-of-all-trades quality, without failing in any one area.
If you're in the market for a unique, high-end earphone and want something visually striking with audio quality to match, PLUSSOUND's SONORA might be just what you're after."
PLUSSOUND SONORA Review — Headfonics
"I found Volta and Sonora to be quite impressive for a sophomore release with improvements in both, the tuning and the design. Can't wait for what else Christian and his PlusSound team going to come up with in the future!"

CAREFULLY COORDINATED
The SONORA's low frequencies are produced by two dynamic drivers configured in an isobaric arrangement. This consists of two drivers that work together to produce a deep and controlled bass. It is particularly effective at eliminating phase distortion and reducing unwanted resonances, resulting in a full, powerful and distortion-free bass response.
The midrange is covered by four symmetrical armature drivers, which deliver a highly articulate and natural reproduction with incredible accuracy and detail.
The treble is managed by two electrostatic drivers. Known for its unparalleled speed and accuracy, the treble is reproduced cleanly and in detail, without any harshness or sibilance.
This tuning approach creates a captivating listening experience by adding a touch of excitement and sparkle to the highs while enhancing the bass impact. SONORA offers a versatile listening experience that will appeal to a wide range of listeners, from audiophiles who value detail and transparency to casual listeners who enjoy lively and dynamic sound.
PREMIUM WORKMANSHIP
SONORA features an all-new anodized aluminum housing that not only improves fit and comfort over previous designs, but also sets new standards in manufacturing by incorporating additional 7-axis CNC and engraving machines to produce one of the most complex designs for earphones.
Each part is finely polished, then anodized and then cryogenically treated to harden the surface and prevent scratches and damage to components from drops.
The all-aluminum enclosure also provides an acoustically inert environment, minimizing unwanted vibrations and resonances that can alter the intended tuning. The result is a clean sound experience that allows the drivers to perform optimally. With a gold wave pattern front panel and burgundy trapezoid pattern enclosure, the design exudes luxury and class.
MORE FEATURES
SONORA comes with custom-designed 0.78mm 2-pin connectors made of Tellurium Copper with Rhodium plating. The combination of these metals offers the highest conductivity known in audio applications and far exceeds the standard brass connectors used on the market.
To ensure a seamless and consistent connection between cable and drivers, we have developed a proprietary cable that is manufactured specifically for our drivers and crossovers. It is known as Copper XS and is based on our high-end cable that features lacquer-coated strands to reduce electrical resistance and reduce electrical anomalies such as skin and proximity effect.
SONORA comes with a specially selected Copper XL cable for optimal performance. This in-house developed cable is made of two high bundle count 18AWG wires to provide excellent ergonomics without compromising on conductivity. Featuring a brand new exclusive Y-splitter inspired by the delicate housing design of the headphones, matching rhodium-plated 2-pin plugs and a connector of your choice developed by us.
