Metaphacts, So you landed before the Netherlands shipment... How many units have been manufactured in the initial production run? There's at least 2 sets out there + "the prototype" (which apparently differs as you have claimed) sitting in an Italian villa...

Yes. The CEO of Sonus faber is heading the launch. :tresbon:

Don't know how many pair were made in the initial run but I was told that the crate you are looking at is the highest serial number of the 4 pair (3 for dealers doing the launch, 1 for CES) we received. :dunno:

There are multiple protos in the factory in different finishes/ design states. Most certainly look close to the final production. :yes:
