Sonus Faber Concerto & Concertino

Tomryan I speak only for Cremona floorstander and the biggest mismatch was the cardas speaker cables the golden ref. IC was just inferior to the others

and who can judge accuracy between this or that ? It all depends on the WHOLE system.
I hear Sonus don't have accuracy.......a friend of mine with Dali big Euphonia with twin 8" woofers , came to my house and left impressed for how clean and dynamic my Cremonas where with the twin 6.5" woofers. We both never heard in his system (which has very good electronics) so powerfull bass and slam. So......let's not generalize so easy.

btw the new Grand piano is very good and the program was the oldboy ost and dreamtheater and not just violins or guitars.

Dear Tomryan,
right now there are 2pairs of Cremona floorstanders in the whole Audiogon classifieds. I don't think it's a significant sample.

But my point is other, take care the system synergy and see your hi-fi-end adventure as a whole system with the right ingredients and tuning, room also.

For example when I had Cardas speaker cables on Cremona , the whole universe was booming in my house, it wasn't the right for them so simple. Experiment first and then judge it.
The Cremona line will please all the musiclovers IMHO and if you take care of it it will please a lot all the others too IMHO.

the cardas was not good with Cremonas. They where: Golden Reference cd to pre, neutral ref. pre-to amp and neutral ref. speaker cables. All others combination with Siltech,Virtual Dynamics,NBS,Nirvana, where a lot lot better, with Nordost so and so. It ends up with Siltech IC's and NBS speaker cables. Fabulous was with all Virtual Dynamics Master Series, but couldn't afford it. Next step is to test (someday) the Siltech 110 G5 Speaker cables.....but there's no rush.
