SOVEREIGN Glory Amplifier. How good is it?
I own the Sovereign Glory (together with the Sovereign Director preamplifier) and I would not change it for any other power amplifier. It can compete against much more expensive machines. I heard the Glory driving the Tidal Contriva and Piano Cera...

Focalfan, I am glad you found the right speaker for you.A person like you that believes that any Focal Utopia is a top speaker would never even consider a Tidal.

Elviukai, I suggest you take a look in the News section in the Tidal website. There are some news about black ceramic drivers there...

Quanmer, you better ask Tidal for more technical info.... But I know for sure that the speaker designer considers the Black Ceramic drivers to be superior...

Tbg, you need to focus on the fact that the Sunray is a two-and-half way design whereas the Contriva is a three-way design. That makes the Sunray more coherent and easier to place despite its size. It is possible to listen near-field with a Sunray...

Tidal Speakers owners
Tbg, don't even try to compare the Ypsilon with the Sovereign electronics. Sovereign are far superior products, no doubt about it... 
Thiel CS 3.7 vs Tidal Piano Cera
of course it is speculation but since I am buying the Piano Cera soon I can describe my feelings regarding the comparison between a Tidal and a Thiel speaker.... 
Thiel CS 3.7 vs Tidal Piano Cera
