Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Re: SONUS FABER Cremona

Believe it they are in production. I have just auditioned a pair in Hong Kong. They sell here for USD6800.. They look great, but that said they are now finished in a middle matt finish instead of the high gloss of the Armati’s and the Guarneri’s. Somehow it just doesn’t seem so luxurious. They have new binding posts, which mean you can really tighten the suckers and get a good connection even with just the fingers. However, the speakers are not bi-wirable :(

I auditioned them against a pair of Guarneri's, with Nu-vista integrated and 3D CD player. As a first impression I found the Cermona's had a lot more presence and weight but the top end a littler brighter and not so sweet as the Guarneri's. However, this probably owes something to the fact the speakers only came into the shop only two days ago.

Therefore, I will be going back in a month’s time once they have had time to settle in.
