Speaker Selection


I recently have narrowed my speaker selection down to the following four choices; Sonus Faber Grand Piano Domus, Thiel CS-2.4, Devore Fidelity Gibbon 8 and Zu Audio Druid.

The last two contenders are based upon reviews and discussion forum comments only, as I have never had the pleasure of an audition.

I really enjoyed options 1 and 2 above, and would likely be happy with either selection. I was not able to listen to these two options side by side for an A/B test.

I value the opinions rendered here on Agon and I am seeking advice as to the above choices. If you a have definite opinion, please put it to words along with your reasoning including whether you have actually heard the option you selected.

I've heard the Sonus model and thought it was a superb sounding speaker -- very engaging, dynamic, and just plain musical and fun. Haven't heard the others. A word of personal experience, though: Buying speakers based solely on reviews (even on Audiogon) is risky if they are not a widely known brand and easy to resell. Go with what you know is usually the name of the game.
