the sonus faber pianos do just keep getting better with time.
Gallo 3.1 vs. B&W 804 vs. faber grand piano
I am looking to stay under $3,000 used. The only one I have heard is the sonus, faber. I liked it. I also have had jm labs in the past, so they are not out of the question either, I like there sound siquature.
The speakers will be used for Home theater use also. I mainly listen to rock music.
What I want is a speaker that is very fast, tight bass, with great imaging. Also I kind of like a speaker to be a little on the bright side, but not fatiguing.
Oh and the amps will be a theta Dreadnaught or Bell Canto ref II's.
Thanks for the help in advance!

I have an all-Gallo surround sound system and thoroughly enjoy it. The speakers are very fast, sweet, smooth, and clear. Try to stay within the Reference line, the timbre-matching is very important in a surround sound system. I originally had the Dues for Center and Surrounds, replaced them with Ref. AVs - WOW! Keep an eye out here (this is where I got of ALL mine), the Gallos can be found for very good prices if you don't mind buying used. Fronts - $1250 http://www.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?spkrfull&1238224686&/Anthony-Gallo-Reference-3-spea Surrounds - $1495 (smokin' deal!) http://www.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?spkrfull&1238368453&/Anthony-Gallo-Reference-AV-sta Watch for a Ref. AV Center, I got mine off Audiogon for $895 delivered... With some careful shopping, you could put together a complete Reference surround setup for $3500-4000. You'd have to spend over $20,000 to beat 'em... -RW- |
