Audio Physic Virgo or Sonus Faber Cremona


I would appreciate some thoughts/recommendations from forum users. I have decided to settle on either the AP Virgo II or SF Cremona floorstanders. While I have heard the original Virgo and loved them, I have not personally heard the Cremonas but have owned SF speakers and like their sonic signature. I am edging towards the Cremonas (bonus of killer looks). But I remembered the impact the Virgos had on me years ago - I actually thought they were the best speakers I have heard then. The imaging were spectacular. Wondering if there's anyone who has owned both. I love disappearing act more than anything else and if the AP is superior in this regards to the SF, I am inclined to go that route. Using mostly tube equipment to drive them. Thanks for sharing!

So how many manufacture founders actually studied electrical engineering, acoustic, physic, or mechanical engineering in school?

Fortunately, there are many talents and tools out there that can help one's dream come true. Franco utilized his artistic skill combining with best Danish drivers and modern tools to create world class speakers.

Bobby from Merlin is a good example. He takes the Dynaudio Esotar driver to the extreme, better than what Dynaudio can do themselves! Creating speaker is an art, not just pure science if you have ever attempted to make one.
