Herd them yestoday
The where almost brand new out of the box with only a few houres of run in
The setup was the new merantz reference fronend and mono blocks costing a fortune.
First of the are absolutly beauitful.
But the sound disapointed me greatly.
Bass was very very good ,ok musical but now impressiv, midband sounded as if it wassent there and was overall very lean, and the twetter had all wrongs scanspeak ringradiator are known for , top bright and sharp ,and throwing razor sharp overtones at you that are like needels in my ears.
It diddent sound like a sonus faber at all not even sligtly.
The room was pretty good the system was op notch and diffently not why the disapointing sound.
Il go back when the have had around 300 hours of run in time, but at this point the really need to have changed alot to make me like them better then the old.
The show potintial to be more hifi then the old but on the sacrifice of the old cremonas musical magic.
lest see in a weeks time.
Franco where are you ?
