Sonus faber - Amati suprema?


Anybody heard this very expensive speaker? Is it that much better than the Amati G5?

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!

 

@mgrif104 Thats going to hard, I don’t drive much anymore and there is no dealer close to me…thanks though…

Noted on not having a dealer nearby. May I ask what your other equipment is and what you expect to net from the sale of your horn speakers?
