Sonus Faber Guarneri vs Guarneri Memento

At the moment I found as follow:

- my Memento has the same center pin inside tweeter as pictured,
- Amati Anniversario tweeter and Auditor M has the same center pin as Guarneri Memento but Auditor M has different front bafle,
- in Italian review from 2006 I found confirmation that old Guarneri Homage uses Dynaudio D28 tweeter,
- in the same review they claim that Guarneri Memento is ring radiator from Scan-Speak.

Esotar is a dated design from 30 years ago, so much so Dynaudio updated it to keep up with the competition when Evidence was introduced and still it can't compete with Scanspeak Ring Radiator or other newer technology. Just look around, are there any manufactures using Esotar to design their state of the art speakers now?

Lots of ferrofluid to cool the driver is a good thing for professional monitoring where they play 100+ db all day, for audiophile application where micro/macro detail, transparency, and other factors are equally or more important than just high power handling, Esotar falls short.

I have owned 30+ pairs of speakers in the past 20 years, I sure listened with my ears, and now I also learned to listen with my brain too. Something that sounds good but far from truth DOES NOT equal to good sound.

And yes, GH uses Esotar and GM use the top end Ring Radiator, not the cheap Vifa tweeter.

Semi,

you mention owning 30 speakers in the past 20 years. Any highlights or standouts based on your personal experience ?

Semi how abot pictures where claimed Esotar has sticker D28/2 (confirmed in one review) and claimed scan speak ring radiator with different centrer pin and magnet system looking the same as in Vifa?
Is your information based on reviews or other sources?

Milimetr, could you post the link to the review that you are referring to
with the D28/2 information.
