SF Guarneri Homage or SF Extrema?
Well I have only SF guarniere , I do no know any other speaker with a better resolution in reproduction of string instruments, and it have enough bass, depend on amplifier e cables. I thinks this is a speaker to buy and do not sell, is pure art.

Powering Sonus Farber's Guaneri Homage speakers
I used the SF guarniere with mccormack dna1 dlx - good, but was better with audio research vt100 mk2, but the best is gamut d200 mk3, I think there are a lot of good amplifiers, but you should hear gamut first, or read the reviews about it.
