Sonus Faber speakers


Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.

Has anyone owned the Sonetto v and the Olympica iii and can offer their opinion on 
weather the latter is a worthwhile upgrade ?

@andrew_r I've owned Sonetto Vs and Olympica Nova Vs.

Olymipca Novas versus Olympica's I haven't heard back to back.  I have heard the Olympica Nova 2s powered by ARC - I was blown away.  The detail they provide is a step above the Sonetto Vs.  I could live with them as my forever speaker with no regrets 

@andrew_r happy listening 

I agree- I’m on my 3rd set of Sonus fabers - Venere 3.0, Sonnetto V and now Olympica Nova V. I am believing/hoping I have my forever speakers and system. And I have enjoyed the journey along the way.

The Sonnettos are a great value in my eyes - I haven’t heard a speaker at that price I like better. When you get higher in pricing there’s more competition and I like the SF speakers and I enjoy DeVore’s, Wilson and others as well. 
 

enjoy the music 
 

 

@andrew_r I used the 4 ohm taps on my MC 302 for the the Sonetto Vs.

And I did ask McIntosh Labs for their suggestion and they also said use the 4 ohms for the speakers.
