I love my Sonus Faber Grand piano homes, they are soooo "musical". I'm told the Cremona's are even better. I don't agree with them being smoked by the oddyssey's or by dyn's. For me it's the exact opposite. Go listen for yourself.
Need upgrade advice
Well, this is the year of the speaker upgrade for me! My old trusty KEF 104/2s are ready. I currently have KEF Reference 104/2s, KEF 100 center, KEF Q surrounds. Velo 12" Sub. I'm looking to spend as much as $8K for the main pair. Since I've been a KEF guy for some time, I will definitely audition the KEF reference 205s. I originally purchased the KEFs because I love the mid-range of these speakers. However, I was recently in a HT store and listened to a pair of Sonus Faber Grand Pianos. These speakers sounded fantastic and I could really tell the difference in how tight they were compared to my old KEF 104/2s. Heck, they are even "cheap" in what I was thinking of spending. I will also be listening to the SF Cremonas. On the audio side, I have a Sunfire TGIII and Sunfire Grand 5 channel amp. Will use about 50/50 music and HT, but would like to lean to the Music side. I'm going to be taking my time in auditioning many speakers before deciding. Help me make a list! Thanks. SJ
