According to the PSB website specifications the Synchrony One uses a 1 (25mm) Titanium Dome tweeter with a Ferrofluid Neodymium Magnet. I have heard both speakers and while they are both excellent performers they have very different perspectives. The PSBs are probably more neutral and accurate transducers, but the Sonus Fabers have a warmer and richer tonality that many find very enticing. Your Infinities are balanced more similarly to the PSBs, so if you're looking for a warmer perspective the SFs may be the better choice. Hope this helps!
PSB Synchrony vs. Sonus Faber Cremona M
I haven't heard either of these but both are possibilities for an upgrade (will they be?) from current Infinity Renaissance 80. Assuming either can be had for somewhat over $4k which would be recommended? I'd like better soundstage depth and layering, as well as superior imaging. Low end extension is also important as I listen to a wide variety of music, mostly jazz, classical, choral, but also reggae, R&B, etc.
Amplification is Hafler 9500, Conrad Johnson PF-2. Source is Squeezebox Touch (fed from dedicated NAS) feeding PS Audio DL3 DAC. Wireworld Polaris cabling/interconnect.
Room is 10' W X 25' L X 10' H but I cannot sit more than 8 ft or so from speakers which fire along the long dimension of the room. There's a lot of open space behind the listening chair.
If anyone has firsthand experience with both of these (even better with also the Renaissance 80!) please comment.
Thanks
