These Italian speakers are truly beautiful! A transparent speaker that evokes the warmth of Sonus Faber’s heritage. They’ve partly moved away from that warmth—which is especially noticeable in the high frequencies—where they go much further than they did a few years ago, resulting in a lot of space and a rich midrange that’s become more neutral. But folks! It’s still a Sonus Faber, with a keen sense of warm, woody tones.
