Hi everyone, and thanks in advance for any input. I have recently been able to hear the new Sonus Faber Lumina III speakers at two different dealers. Both listening sessions I was impressed by the dynamics, soundstage, and high level of clarity without ear fatigue. The do seem to have an elevated treble, but again not necessarily detrimental or fatiguing. I have nothing to compare them to, as I have never hear any other Sonus Faber speakers. They get great reviews, but not much on comparing them to legacy models. I have recently seen some Concertino Domus, and grand piano Domus and home on the used market, and started wondering what they are like in comparison. I did hear one higher quality recording of the concertino home and it sounded very pleasing over headphones.
So, I am looking for input on the differences that Sonus Faber owners have experienced and if I should consider used over the Lumina III’s. I listen to a lot of classic rock and heavier music (Zeppelin, Beatles, Wilco, Petty, Pink Floyd, Hendrix, Tool, Idles) acoustic and singer songwriter (Damien Rice, Jeff Buckley, and some more modern electronic based stuff (Nils Frahm, Billie Eilish)There is jazz and hip hop in there as well, but no real classical.
I am currently running a Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum III integrated, with Gold Lion KT 77 tubes, Rega Planar 3/Exact with NEO TTPSU, Bluesound Node 2i.
My room is 12x 24 and speakers are on the long wall. Used for music and HT.
