Never heard of them. Went to their website. Do they sound as good as they look? They are good looking speakers thats for sure.

I've listened to the Sonus-Faber at the local dealer, and I'll admit, they are some good sounding speakers. They are also well built speakers with georgeous wood and leather finishes. They are pretty laid back in sound, but nicely detailed. They also image very nicely. They really do sound awesome with Jazz and Classical pieces, although I'd liked to have tried them with hard rock/metal, but did not have a CD with me with that kind of music on it at the time. I tried them, along with the Vienna's and Martin Logans. In the end, I found I liked the more agressive, more "alive" sound of the Klipsch.

To the originial poster - if you think the Sonus Faber are the Ultimate and you are in love with them, then by all means, you found your speaker. Nothing wrong with that. If you do end up getting a pair, I'd be interesed in which model you get and how they sound in your environment.

Also, lets try to keep this civil. I don't want a repeat of that nightmare we had back in the springtime with that one dude and his Paradigms.

The B&K 507AVR as I understand is a top of the line 7:1 HT receiver. Does B&K have a comparable 5:1 receiver? I don't have the room for 7:1. I am also curious to know the difference in sound between the B&K and 2 Channel tubes you bought. Keep me posted.

$3.5-4K for a B&K 507AVR is also way out of my budget for HT. Although I can always dream.

It's in my range. But I don't know if it's in my wife's range if you know what I mean? She keeps talking about going to Maui in March or April. She has a lot of nerve.

Hey Smilin,

How is the receiver for playing just music? I am guessing not too good since you bought three two channel amps in a week. lol
