Sonus Faber Concerto & Concertino

I know these are no longer in production and that there are two versions, the most recent being the Home. Can anyone who does or has owned them give me general impressions? How about specific differences btw the two versions? How easy are they to drive? If you sold them, what did you get that you like better?

Also, it'd be interesting to explain what kind of presentation you seek - "musical" or "accurate"? And, anybody buy Sonus Faber based pretty much on looks? I'm almost willing to at this point, along with Opera.

I have heard the Cremonas at a local dealer and they sound beautifully musical. They don't have any Concertos or Concertinas but I sure do see a lot of these speakers for sale on the site here.

Kops, I'm not sure of what you are saying. The combination of Cardas (which line of Cardas was it?) and Cremonas was bad sounding? Or was it good? By the way, how easy are the Cremonas to drive?

I have to agree there may be some prejudice against SF, kind of like a good looking woman people automatically think is shallow or not too bright.

Damn, I've got Golden Reference interconnects and TG Audio speaker wires. The Gold Ref have always sounded the most neutral of any cables I've owned. There is a Sonus Faber dealer nearby and he has Cremona Auditors in stcok. I'll go check them out.
