I owned a pair of the newer models. I drove them quite successfully with a 20 watt single ended tube amp using KR tubes. My room was 21 X 16 and opened into other rooms. I used JPS speaker cable and a REL sub. They were wonderful. When I moved, my new room is smaller and the Guarneri didn't seem to like the space as much. They are beautiful to listen to. They are the nicest piece of Hi Fi gear I've ever seen.

I'm mulling the idea of dialing up the performance of my second system and am considering the SF Guar's. I have an AirTight 8W SE amp driving Spendor LS3/5A's, so I'd need more ooomph from the amp (looking at a Lectron JH50). So any comments on the SF's - haven't heard much lately - vis-a-vis the Spendors? Speaker cable recomm's (I have AudioNote KSL copper now, thinking about Omega Micro...)?
Also, I know SF changed the construction from 8 to 7 panels a few years back, and thought I remember a possible tweeter change about then also. Any advice on new versus older model?
Thanks for the feedback.
