Default Sonus Faber Elipsa's Ordered

I went ahead and pulled the trigger tonight and put a deposit down on a new pair of SF Elipsa speakers. The dealer said he should be delivering them in 4-7 days. I am hoping they will work better in my room then the Amati's. Don't worry I won't start a new thread...."SF Elipsa's are in the house".

Was this the same dealer that went crazy and revoked an offer to sell?

Do you think the Elipsas will have the same bass issues if you dont pull them out farther into the room?

Can you post a few pictures of how you have your speakers arranged in your room ?
