Guarneri Memento
I replaced a pair of B&W 805S with SF Guarneri Memento. I like monitors because their imaging capabilities are superb and they are easy to position. Another neat thing is, if I sit in the middle, I often cannot hear the sound coming from the loudspeakers. The sound appears from no where.
GM comes in 3 boxes: speakers, columns, and bottom platform. http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/3384/dscf1263i.jpg |
Some unboxing photos.

Assembly process.
The granite platform was bolted to the column http://img104.imageshack.us/img104/1671/dscf1284.jpg String column http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/3723/dscf1286z.jpg Column close-up http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/3773/dscf1981c.jpg |
Here they are!
The loudspeakers were inside these red bags, nice touch http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7749/dscf1270b.jpg http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/6264/dscf1280.jpg http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/5462/dscf1278m.jpg http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/3343/dscf1274.jpg PS. My photography skills do not do these beauties justice! |
Finally, they were bolted onto the columns :banana:

TommyC.......Wow. These four photos with the red cloth were almost like undressing a beautiful woman. Absolutely beautiful. :yes:

It was hard to get good photos of the GM because the thing is tilted.

Beautiful. BEAUTIFUL. Congratulations Tommy. I am literally in "audio love" with my Guarneri Homage. I am not kidding when I say that there is no speaker I'd rather have for my "smallish" listening room: great looks + amazing sound = what else could you ask for.
