I auditioned them a few years ago and honestly didn't like them too much. Initially--i.e. for the first few minutes--they can sound very impressive.  My skeptical nature makes me wonder if they're engineering that way.  But the more I listened, the more overcooked they sounded.  When I posted about them before, I said they were too technicolor--the way certain film can be oversaturated, so that the picture looks impressive but ultimately not very natural.  I believe there's a point of inflexion between the SF line-up up to and including the Venere's, and then starting with the Olympica's and going from there. If you want modern SF, I'd look for used O II's.
