Sonus Faber Amati in Home Theater


Has anyone hear the Sonus Faber in a Home Theater? I have heard conflicting information about whether these speakers are dynamic enough or to delicate for a home theater. I would like speakers that work in a home theater and sound exceptional for 2 channel music. Any thoughts.

A friend of mine is driving his with Sony SCD-1/Sonic Frontier Line 3 SE/BAT VK-75 SE. The sound is just stunning! (Got me to think about upgrading my Thiel 3.6)

We did a side-by-side comparison a few weeks ago between his Line 3 SE and my GNSC modded LS-25 Mk I. The Line 3 SE beat out the LS-25 Mk I with Siemens Falcon 6922 tubes. But when we swapped out the tubes with a quad of Amperex white label USN-CEP 7308s, all votes went to the LS-25 hands down.

I have not heard it myself in his system, but he has been prasing about the Audio Aero CD player which he had borrowed and inserted into his system several times. I had heard the Audio Aero CD player in another system, and it was pretty impressive.

I had done some research about the Amati's afterwards. They seem to not like Levinson gears, so stay away from the Levinson amps.
