Here's the Sonus Faber SF17.....about that toe in....maybe Ivan can comment here since he's had way more experience with Sonus Faber than I have, but good night, they turned them into a pair of headphones. I spoke with one of the Sonus guys and I get it, they wanted to showcase the new Olympica Novas on the other wall and feature these as more of a "nearfield" listening experience. I understand what he was saying, but why you would ever use a pair of these in a nearfield experience is beyond me. Hard to comment on the sound, they were playing an old jazz/big band type recording that sounded almost mono so I'll reserve judgement.
Wilson Audio WAMM + wife = "But honey, what's $650,000 in the grand scheme of things?"

I'm sure they sound fantastic, but the Wilson is too much. .
