Sonus Faber Extremas with Sub or Amati Homages


Hi, I have a chance to get the Sonus Faber Extremas with either a Rel Stentor Sub or the Talon Roc sub. Or I can get the Sonus Faber Amati Homages. I wish I could A/B the speakers. I really like both speakers. I heard the Extremas with the Talon Roc sub.

Sscot1961, actually the midbase on the Extremas is a Skaaning. The Skaaning is a Carbon Fiber Polypropelene midbase. This is the best sounding midbase I ever heard. It has a richness that no other midbase has. I like it better then the new Skaaning midbases which are 100 percent Polypropelene. Its amazing, this Midbase on the Extremas is 10 years old and i'v yet to hear a better sounding midbase.
Semi, the midbase in the Guarneri's is 100 percent polypropelene. There's no carbon fiber in it. I think its a great midbase, but the Skaaning midbase in the Extremas was my favorite sounding midbase. I rate the JM Lab W Cone midbase the 2nd best sounding midbase I'v heard.
