Wilson Sophia 2 or Sonus Faber Amati Homage

Given that the Amati Anniversarios are $30K/pair and the upcoming Amati Futuros are $36K, aren't the $17K Sophias at a disadvantage here? Even the Sasha W/Ps at $27K cost less than either SF model, and they fill a bigger room and go lower than the Sophias.

Johnnyb53, the OP is talking about the original Hommage series NOT the new line of Amati's. The price of the original Amati used is comparable to the Sophia 2's.
BTW, I have heard both speakers and IMO, the difference is fairly great. The Amati's work best with a good tube amp with some drive capability....SET's don't apply. With a beefy ss amp, they are also good, BUT the Amati's are not for everyone's taste. If you have a medium to small room, IMO the Amati's are not the best choice. The Sophia's OTOH, can sound very good with less power, therefore a SET amp may be a choice. My impression of the Sophia's is that they are a slightly more "refined" sound than the Amati's. They also do not need quite as big a room. Which do I personally prefer? Depends on the ancillary gear, the room and what type of music I listen to more...For rock, some jazz, blues and alternative...the Sophia, for Classical and intimate portrayal of voice( particularly female vocals) the Amati's...Hands down. No easy choice here, they are both good speakers, but like everything in this hobby, need to be carefully matched to your ancillary gear and most importantly, your room. Just IMHO.

Are you still looking for some Amati Homage speakers?

I have a pair of Kharma CRM 3.2 FE, and would like to go for a pair of Amati Homage. I have never heard them, but judging from reviews, Agoners' opinions, and from my ears (I have a pair of SF Minima FM2 in my second system), my feeling is that the Amati sound more natural than the Kharmas. Anyone has ever had the chance to compare the two speakers?

Hi, Rjhodkin, do you have Amati Homage speakers for sale? I am interested to get a pair if the price is right.
