The true goal is obviously not to impart the same sound as the

...I'm amazed that you haven't figured
out the market segment that Sonus Faber is addressing. An oviously
badly needed hint for the audio tyro: Sonus Faber as a brand has
more
do to with looks than sound quality.

Newbie readers should completely disregard Mr Kruegers asinine
comments regarding Sonus Faber. This is an extremely competent brand,
producing highly regarded, highly enjoyable, exquisitely musical
speakers.

If anybody bothers to read what I actually wrote, they'll find zip,
nada that says otherwise. All I was trying to communicate is that the
speakers are real lookers, perhaps at the expense of sound quality for
the price.

The proof in the pudding is in the listening, which I doubt
Mr Krueger has done.

Doubt as you will, Paul.

Note that this sicko takes exception to almost
any product that is not utilitarian by design.

Just goes to show that Dormer is the kind of fool who can't tell the
difference between my claim that it actually costs something for the
nifty cabnetry, and this weird idea that this means that I think that
every speaker is supposed to be as ugly as he is.
