SonusFaber GP? Other recomendations?

I'm looking for a sweet, detailed, very refined, unfatiguing
speaker to play music like Don Henly and Journy. I'm looking
for some advice before I go for the Grand Pianos.. Another
peev, I *HATE* boomy bass and the boxy sound.

I have brought my equiptment into stores so
I could here all the speakers with my equiptment
and here's what I heard so far.. (I have a Sony XA7,
Classe CP30 and Classe CA100)

Martin Logan Aerius i TOO BRITE !!!
Viena Accoustic Beethoven Boxy sounding
B&W N804 Great stage but cold & mechanical
Revel (the model at 2k) Tiny in the highs
SonusFaber GP Seemed like the best sound so far

Please don't flame away at the above comments, they are
just what *I* heard on my Classe'.

Thanks
Tom

Your desires from a speaker seem to be tailor made for the Newform R645 planar speakers. They are only available direct, but come with a return period.

Check the reviews at www.audioreview.com, or their web site www.newformresearch.com.

I had a pair a while back but thought they were too sweet and forgiving. However, I use and enjoy Wilson speakers, so if you are one of the many who find Wilsons bright and harsh, you should love the Newforms.
