Sonus Faber CONCERTINO vs. Quad 11L?

What are your opinions regarding these two speakers? I'm trying to decide between them for my bedroom. My music consists mostly of male vocalists such as Matt Monro, Frank Sinatra, Jim Reeves, Mario Lanza, and so on. I also listen to classical such as Beethoven, Mozart, Hayden's concertos, and Strauss waltzes.

Any feedback is much appreciated.

the concertino is the winner here by a wide margin.....both throw an effective soundstage....both are 'right' on small scale music.....but the concertino nails the weight of an orchestra and big band, as well as any small monitor could hope to....viva italia

Both are excellent speakers.I have owned both.Ultimately the Quad 11L worked better in my office system and it definately provides more "bang for the buck." You can't go wrong with either of these fine speakers.The Concerto may be a little warmer(and smoother).The 11L is very dynamic and has amazing bottom for a small,inexpensive speaker.

Thanks for the feedback.

Just to be clear, I'm talking about the SF Concertino Domus. I understand there were other Concertinos in the past. I hope your feedback related to the Domus.

The Domus line is different. It projects awesome stage and scene with clarity. But the demo I heard had only 2-3hours, right out of the box.
