Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Hi Davey,

Sure. I've set them up in about 7 different systems in 6 different rooms. Enough variables to know the speaker pretty well. In any meaningful way, it is a superior speaker to the original Guarneri. That being said, I could live with the original Guarneri for the rest of my life quite contently because it makes music. The Memento is also a consummate music maker, but the system that you build around Guarneri will in all likelihood be different than the system that you build around Memento. As I'm sure you've noticed, most all drivers used in Sonus faber models are customized units. Dynaudio no longer offers these services, which is why Sonus faber has been working with other driver vendors. I would agree that the Esotar is a wonderful tweeter when used correctly. Mr. Skaaning was also the founder of Scanspeak, which builds the custom tweeter used in Memento.

Good listening,

Patrick
