Sonus faber - Amati suprema?

@melk-man 

I wish you lived closer I'm up north near New York. Curious to know what you're gonna receive on the trade-in for the G5s.

@emergingsoul , $29.5k trade in, 2 yrs old and perfect condition in Red Wood finish, and they will come and box em up and take em away. a guy that bought my 611's (traded those in toward the 75th anev 1.25kw's) is likely gonna buy em and wire me the money direct to avoid the sales ta*. 

@melk-man 

I have 611s too and not using them. I opted to go with a tube amplifier but did consider the 1.25.  I use 802 D3 from Bowers.  I like keeping the 611's for back up and that has happened with a tube amplifier.

It seems like you guys are talking about expensive Sonus Faber speakers, maybe you can help me out. My tinnitus is getting so extreme I have decided to change speakers and get rid of my horn speakers, my ears can’t handle it anymore, at 72 what a bummer getting old is. Researching around it seems the Sonus Faber speakers may be the ticket for a softer midrange and top end, what do you guys think?..My budget will be 15k or less after I sell both pairs of horn speakers I have.

Really sorry to hear about the tinnitus. It’s a common problem. I think SF speakers are easier on the ears (and eyes) and are more musical than most. An audition, however, is a must to make sure you like their presentation. 

Good luck!
