It can be to much if turned up to loudly, and my room is rather large.

I went from Cary gear to MAC and am amazed at the improvement. I LOVE these speakers! I did go for the graphite version after having both in my home.

I also used to own the Guarneri Homage but prefer the Mementos even though the midrange of the H was better to me.

Anyway, the pics look great!


Steve, I bet your system sounds out of this world. McIntosh tubes + Guarneri. Live IS gooooood. How about some nice pics of those graphite Mementos!!!
