Finally...subwoofer that's aesthetically pleasing!

Saw these in a trade mag.

$750K for the set according to the article.

If one has the wallet for this kind of excess-HELL YEAH!

I personally think a pair of the old Stradivari would compliment the subs more than the Suprema towers. Perhaps not a sonic match, but that would only be a $20/30K goof-put those in the guest room.

I have to contact SF to see if they’ll sell another pair of subs for my SWARM setup.

"Sadly in the press release you could see the scan speak sticker on that midrange"

I would hope it is NOT an off the shelf model and at least a tweaked version?

"Really amazing speakers that ignored the room they were in,"

I agree. I have heard them in a living room, with no audiophool enhancements and in demo rooms.

Breathtaking and nice to stare at in both arrangements. 

The Stradivari are on my long term "buy if found @ crazy, low price."

If someone has the dough for this type of extravagance, just commission 

Franco Serblin, the man behind SF and have him design a pair of your own Suprema's? 

For one thing, design a magnetic setup so as not to ruin the look with those cheap fasteners SF still uses.

I also noticed SF has reintroduced the Stradivari. Not impressed with the new look?

I guess I admire Serblin SF than current SF.

 "Gotta wonder how many units Sonus aspired to sell with that design x price point. What a world."

Suprema is likely a "build to order" with a long lead time. Can't imagine a section of the warehouse filled with pallets ready to ship? That would "cheapen" the prestige/privilege of owning.

I see some of the build technology "trickling down" to the more "sane" price points.

Sub with electronic crossover @regular guy price-$20K?
