One thing to bear in mind, is Sonus Farber is now part of Bose. So I believe that Bose will employ trickle down technology, marketing, and profitability margins.
In the their purchase of SF they also acquired McIntosh and there have been upper mgmt changes made there already. I already own a set, but if you’re wanting to purchase the sound, dependability, and reputation, I’d buy off the shelf or the current product roster. Known is a wiser investment than what might be. All my opinion of course.
